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'‽"

Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately. The applause grew even more fervent... (The protagonist, possessed by a devil, travels through 19th-century Britain in a world without magic)

A great haunted house story often has a spooky setting. An old, dilapidated building with creaky floors and dark corners is perfect. Also, strange noises like howls or whispers add to the horror.

I recommend " Hell's Apartment ", a mystery novel written by Black Tinder. Entering this apartment was like entering the world of a horror movie, where the main characters were chosen to be " actors " struggling to survive. The residents of the apartment had to complete the mission according to the instructions written in blood. Gui Wudi could only find a way out. The first and middle stages were superb. The atmosphere was tense and exciting. It was like a group drama depicting characters. The dungeon settings were ingenious. It was so terrifying that it stimulated one's imagination. Although the later stages were a little broken and some people didn't like the ending, it was still a horror masterpiece. The reasoning and battle of wits were very exciting. There was also " Haunted House Night Talks," a collection of short horror stories that refused to be hypocritical. Each story was not long, and the writing style was good. There was a touch of sadness and horror. Some of the stories had some minor problems but they were self-explanatory. The ones that left a deep impression were like " Invisible Man." He might be frightened when he read it alone at night, but it was just a good article that had been buried. " From Naruto to Wishing God " was not bad either. It was a light novel written with a youthful heart. When the protagonist transmigrated to the Naruto world, there was the Wishing God System. If he fulfilled his wish, he would be able to duplicate his ability. The protagonist would then embark on the path of the Wishing God. Fans of Naruto could watch. "A Record of Falsehood" was a suspense novel written by a drunk man. The female protagonist, Ning Zhao, had a special identity. She vanquished demons and devils without a CP. It was a unit story with all kinds of spells and allusions. The characters were vivid and the plot was attractive. Although there were small flaws, the book was still a good read. Finally, there was the book " Records of Strange People in the Old Mansion ", a suspense novel written by the ghost slave master. It was about the murder after the old house was demolished, followed by the appearance of strange people. There was no CP, no transmigration and rebirth. There were dreams of young girls, visions of heaven and earth, mysterious customs, mountain delicacies, and intangible elements. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
