When Zhaozhao was ten years old, she was brought back to the Marquis household as the true daughter. Her parents doted on her, her brother was close, and even the fake daughter treated her with warmth. Zhaozhao once thought she was dreaming, and she treated them with all her heart. Until they personally sent her into the Tomb Guard City, a place that devours people whole, she realized she was merely brought back to exchange and protect the fake daughter. For five years in the city, the Marquis household ignored her. They let the sons of nobles from distinguished families use her as a punching bag, abusing and beating her, leaving no part of her intact. She died in despair the day before she was to leave the city. At the moment of her death, Zhaozhao awakened. — A hundred years ago, the ghostly gate opened, and the Ghost King led thousands of ferocious ghosts out of the underworld to wreak havoc on the world. She was originally King Yan of the underworld, descended to experience trials due to dereliction of duty. Once Zhaozhao opened her eyes again, The world changed colors, and she held the Book of Life and Death, transforming into King Yan to claim lives. Judging good and evil, slashing enemies. Once she gathered eighty-one evil souls and captured the Ghost King, she could return to her position. — On the day she left the city, the Marquis couple and her brother came personally to pick her up. Zhaozhao didn't even glance at them, turning to get into Prince Su's carriage. Her parents cursed her as an ungrateful ingrate, and her brother sneered that she would come crying back to beg them. Later, all of them knelt on the ground, crying, begging her to return home. Zhaozhao watched coldly. She would no longer want anything tainted. — Prince Su was born shrouded in Evil Qi, and anyone close to him would either die or be injured. Everyone thought he would be lonely for life. He had a delicate young lady by his side. She appeared to be pitiful and charming, but was ruthless and decisive behind the scenes. Once she absorbed the Evil Qi and gathered the evil souls, Zhaozhao planned to pat her butt and leave. Prince Su's eyes reddened, saying, "Zhaozhao, take this prince with you!"

Synopsis: Winter, Joseon Era. The war is over but the dying hasn’t stopped. Kang Mu-yeong, 21, was once the “Ghost Blade” — a sword prodigy who won the Battle of Namhan for the South. He paid for it with his sight. Blinded by enemy powder, disowned by his father General Kang as a “useless disgrace,” he’s exiled to a plague village to die quietly. He expects death. He welcomes it. Min Seo-hwa, 19, is the daughter of a minister executed for treason. Her crime: a map tattooed across her back — the location of her father’s hidden war gold. The King wants it. The North wants it. Her father’s enemies want her dead. She’s sent to the same village. Officially: quarantine. Really: a death sentence before someone cuts the map off her skin. The village is a graveyard. Plague, starvation, and deserters pick off the last villagers one by one. When a band of Northern soldiers raids for food, they find Mu-yeong and Seo-hwa instead. The soldiers recognize the Ghost Blade. They want revenge for Namhan. They recognize the traitor’s daughter. They want the gold. Mu-yeong can’t see them. Seo-hwa’s never held a sword. But he can hear the scrape of a blade being drawn. She can see the archer aiming at his back. She becomes his eyes. He becomes her hands. Together, they kill the soldiers. In the bloody aftermath, they make a deal: She’ll guide him. He’ll protect her. No trust. No names. Just survival. But when Seo-hwa washes blood off her back in the stream, Mu-yeong hears the water and asks what she’s hiding. She lies. He knows it. Episode ends with a new army arriving at dawn — Southern banners. His father’s men. They’re not here to rescue him. They’re here to take her. The map is worth more than his blind son. Hook for Episode 2: To survive his own father, the Ghost Blade will have to swear an oath to the exile girl. “On moonlight.” No war. No fathers. Just them. Core Conflict Established: 1. External: Both armies want Seo-hwa’s map. Both fathers want them dead. 2. Internal: Mu-yeong believes he’s only a weapon. Seo-hwa believes she’s only a map. 3. Relationship: Enemies → reluctant allies.

Marriage. Betrayal. Lies. Jane's world was shattered... and then life handed her an unexpected miracle. Will love survive the secrets that almost destroyed it?

Not every horror story gets released. Some are buried. Forgotten. Or never meant to be seen. These are the films that whisper in projection rooms, flicker through broken reels, and show up on tapes no one remembers recording. “Each novel is a standalone nightmare—scripted, cast, and directed by a man no one remembers hiring.” The Director. No one has seen his face. No one has survived two of his films. You're not reading a novel. You're watching his cut. Just pray he never turns the camera on you. --- ## Book 1: My Husband is a Serial Killer (and He Doesn't Know It) The reel clicks to life in an empty theater. Frame one: a woman's trembling hands holding a bloodstained journal. The handwriting inside matches her husband's perfectly—each confession detailing murders that made headlines, each date stamped with precision. Behind the camera, something breathes. Mara Lockwood thought she'd escaped her fractured past when she married Daniel Kessler—a gentle trauma therapist who forgets where he puts his keys, loses hours to daydreams, and loves her with desperate intensity. Their seaside home feels safe. Quiet. Until the journal surfaces from a locked drawer, its pages filled with Daniel's careful script describing acts of violence he swears he never committed. The camera never blinks. As bodies surface along the fog-drenched Oregon coast and Detective Elara Finch closes her investigation net, Mara faces an impossible choice: expose the man she loves or become his accomplice. Because the deeper she digs, the more she discovers about their shared time at Haven Creek Mental Health Facility—memories that were supposed to stay buried. Daniel's blackouts are getting worse. His sleepwalking more violent. And someone keeps leaving notes on Mara's windshield: "He doesn't remember what you made him do." In the projection booth, a clapperboard snaps. The Director adjusts his focus. He's been waiting for this story—one where the audience can't tell who's performing and who's just pretending to be real. Because if Daniel's the killer, Mara might be the reason he became one. And if she's covering for him... The film has already started. --- Disclaimer: All characters are original.
