The publisher’s press release provides the following series summary:
A cozy coffin for two becomes one recluse’s reality when he wakes up in the frigid body of a thousand-year-old corpse! Can he find his footing in this new body? Even then, can he survive the passionate doting of his handsome—and quite unhinged—coffinmate?
Wang Xiaomie, a reclusive gay virgin, wakes up to a shocking reality: he now inhabits the body of a thousand-year-old corpse, dressed in elaborate wedding attire. Even more bizarre, he finds himself sharing a coffin with Wen Fengjin, an immortal warrior who has spent centuries waiting for the return of his lost lover!
Now trapped in a lavish mausoleum, undead and constantly ravenous, Wang Xiaomie’s only source of sustenance is a magical peach blossom tree that keeps his heart beating. But survival isn’t the only challenge—he must also avoid grave robbers and, more troubling still, conceal his growing attraction to the hot, yet utterly unhinged, immortal who will stop at nothing—even murder—to protect his beloved.
Seven Seas expanded their existing Siren audiobook imprint over the course of 2025 to include a selection of danmei works, and this new license potentially indicates the publisher’s continued interest in growing their library. Some fans on social media questioned the specific choice of license in this instance, as Coffin Husband‘s English release has seen controversy due to the allegedly colorist jokes throughout the work.
My Husband and I Sleep in a Coffin Vol. 1‘s audiobook is scheduled for release on February 12, 2026. Preorders are available from several major retailers:
