Synopsis

The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered. "Landlord, is this what you meant by 'the house can be a little crowded at night'‽"

Classic horror fiction novels often feature themes that are timeless. For instance, death and the afterlife are common themes, as seen in 'The Call of Cthulhu' with its otherworldly entities related to death. They also use vivid descriptions to create a terrifying image in the reader's mind. In 'The Shining', the description of the hotel's haunted rooms and corridors is very vivid. Another characteristic is the use of psychological horror, like in 'Rosemary's Baby' where the main character's mental state is gradually eroded by the horror around her.

Well, 'The Call of Cthulhu' by H.P. Lovecraft is a great example. It has this Lovecraftian horror with the tentacle - faced Cthulhu waiting to rise from its slumber. The idea of an ancient, incomprehensible evil is really spooky. And then there's 'The Shining' by Stephen King. The haunted hotel where the family is trapped, along with the main character's descent into madness, makes it a classic horror story in the fiction genre.
