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'‽"

Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Best novel ever! I absolutely love seeing people other than me suffering. (⌒▽⌒) That aside, this novel is basically just like those restaurant managing novels with a system, etc., except, the one being managed this time is a Haunted House, ofcourse by the MC, Chen Ge whose parents mysteriously disappeared. The MC then managed his parents' business, which is the Haunted House. He didn't start off very well into the business, only barely able to afford the electricity and water costs, and his rent also not paid after a month or so. As such, he went on to the attic of the Haunted House (whom he hasn't visited for half a year) to check whether there were any props whom his parents' left as he's out of props along with money; his parents' phone (whom he has tried to unlock numerous times before which resulted in failure) suddenly turned on, and as he checked it, he found that the phone only had one app, which had the logo of his Haunted House. As he opened the app... (System, obviously.) Anyways, he can basically manage the Haunted House through the System and he also have Daily Missions and the like which are; escaping haunted house, solving crimes, etc., thingies in the real world. After he's completed it, he gets the scenario of the mission whom he has completed and he may apply that scenario unto his Haunted House which can be experienced by the customers. He may also get rewards such as the Baleful Spirits to put unto his Haunted House, a creepy song, etc. Currently at Chapter 40. December 8, 2019. I apologize for the messy review. I suck at things like these. (´;ω;`)

You might also consider 'The Little Stranger' by Sarah Waters. It has a slow - burning sense of horror that builds around a large, dilapidated house. The characters are well - drawn and the mystery of the haunted house unfolds in a way that is not too overwhelming for those new to the genre.

One of the best is 'The Haunting of Hill House' by Shirley Jackson. It's a classic that creates a deeply unsettling atmosphere within the haunted house. The characters' psychological states are gradually eroded by the house's malevolence.

One of the best haunted house novels is 'The Haunting of Hill House' by Shirley Jackson. It's a classic that creates a really eerie atmosphere. The characters are well - drawn and as the story progresses, the sense of dread builds up. Another great one is 'House of Leaves' by Mark Z. Danielewski. It has a unique format that adds to the overall sense of disorientation, much like being lost in a truly haunted house.

The salted fish female supporting role, she just wants to lie down

Su Miaoyu had liked to read novels since she was young. She was extremely envious of the plot in the novel. She was arrogant and fell in love with the fast-acting and face-slapping type of novels. She could not help but want to learn all kinds of skills. Su Miaoyu, who was not afraid of death, did all kinds of things that could transmigrate, but she did not get the system that could help her realize her wish of face-slapping. It was just that when she had already given up on the ward area and was ready to step into the nursing home to enjoy her old age with her old friends, she was taken away by the salted fish revival system that was decades late to carry out a mission. The dumbfounded Su Miaoyu refused to admit defeat and prepared to be a salted fish. However, reality did not cooperate. In addition to the various instigations of the system at the beginning, she finally managed to subdue the system as a little fan. However, the system's superior could not see her comfortable. Every time she transmigrated, there would be a problem with the plot or someone would cause trouble. Su Miaoyu, who was a salted fish, didn't want to make a comeback at all. Unfortunately, she owed the system a huge sum of money and could only think of ways to fulfill her dream of being a salted fish while paying off the debt. In the first world, she had finally fallen in love with a single mother, but she was stabbed by Mo Chengyuan, who was controlled by the world's consciousness. From then on, she had a shadow over men. In the second world, she even met Mo Chengyuan, who had the same name as her and looked the same as her. Her mission in this world was to survive from him, and Su Miaoyu, who had no plot hints, lived carefully… (I don't know if there will be a male protagonist in this novel. According to my initial expectations, there will be one, but it's hard to say for sure now. Everyone, be careful.)
