Horror Revival

"I am Yang Jian. By the time you read this, I've already been dead..." A strange parchment, an eye that peeks into the darkness. This is the memoir of a person who survived.

Horror Game Developer: My games aren't that scary!

[Horror Game Developer : My games really aren't that scary!] I hate horror. From the skittering sounds of footsteps racing behind me, to the soft yet unnervingly cold whispers curling around my ears... All of it. I hate it. So much so that I start puking whenever I reach a certain threshold. And yet, I am a Horror Game Developer. A crappy one at that. So, given my lack of ability, I decided to quit. And yet... [Congratulations, you've been selected for the Horror Game Developer System!] Nope, I don't want it. Let me quit. ※ Note : Your world might experience some changes. But don't worry! It's part of the game! *** This is a story about a game developer who hates horror, but has no choice but to develop games scary enough to traumatize people. You want to curse me for making you piss your pants? If that's the case, who do I curse? *** An SCP inspired story with its own twist! Discord : https://discord.gg/FK7ZQU3b9p

Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind nicht so gruselig!

[Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind wirklich nicht so gruselig!] Ich hasse Horror. Von den huschenden Geräuschen von Schritten, die hinter mir herjagen, bis zu den leisen, aber beunruhigend kalten Flüstern, die sich um meine Ohren winden... All das. Ich hasse es. So sehr, dass ich anfange zu kotzen, wenn ich eine bestimmte Schwelle erreiche. Und trotzdem bin ich ein Horror-Spieleentwickler. Ein miserabler noch dazu. Also habe ich beschlossen, aufzuhören, angesichts meiner mangelnden Fähigkeiten. Und doch... [Glückwunsch, Sie wurden für das Horror-Spielentwicklungssystem ausgewählt!] Nein, ich will es nicht. Lass mich aufhören. ※ Hinweis: Ihre Welt könnte einige Veränderungen erfahren. Aber keine Sorge! Es ist Teil des Spiels! *** Dies ist eine Geschichte über einen Spieleentwickler, der Horror hasst, aber keine andere Wahl hat, als Spiele zu entwickeln, die gruselig genug sind, um Menschen zu traumatisieren. Sie wollen mich verfluchen, weil ich Sie dazu gebracht habe, sich in die Hose zu machen? Wenn das der Fall ist, wen verfluche ich dann? *** Eine von SCP inspirierte Geschichte mit ihrer eigenen Wendung!

Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!

She is the true daughter of a prestigious family in the Federation, who was lost outside and grew up in a garbage heap, and is also a waste with only F-level spiritual power. Her parents' abandonment and favoritism, the exclusion and framing by her green tea fake daughter sister, the cultivation sect in crisis. She can only regain her cultivation and turn the tide by participating in the Federation Planet's 'God Creation Game'! "No way? Someone with only F-level spiritual power can also enter the 'God Creation Game'?" "Maybe just to make up the numbers." "With only 3 attack points, even a gust of wind can kill her, right?" Josh, the sickly waste not favored by everyone, casually summoned a Divine-level Monster in the dimension. Just when everyone thought she was going to kill all sides, she smiled slightly: "Open for fortune-telling, divining the location, weaknesses, and treasures of monsters, looking at dimension feng shui, monster physiognomy, one divination for 3000 points, scan the code to pay, thank you!" Barrage: "What's wrong! 3000 points, what idiot would go there! She's a fraud!" Contestant: "Me me me! I want a reading, I want a reading!" "I was here first!" "Don't cut in line!" Barrage: "......" Are these the star contestants they've fostered with points?

This is one of the stories that I've read with great plotline, characters, writing style, and flow. I really like the little details added, those metaphors, and the characterization. It's very nice to read.

One of the better btth stories here for sure, just hoping you use more natural style of talking in the future, rely less on metaphors. Don't take it the wrong way, the metaphors are accurate and all, but they're a tad bit too many in one chapter is what I would say. Tho I somehow understand the reason—being set in a xianxia world and with grown Yoriichi as main character. Currently chapter 12.

After wearing the book, the little pixiu exploded in the entertainment circle

The new book," On the Wedding Night, I Kissed the Sick and Disabled Prince to Wake Up " Lin Suisui was the Medicine King's Valley's direct disciple, a miracle doctor. She had saved countless people in her life, but in the end, an arrow pierced her chest and she did not have a good end. When she opened her eyes again, she was the Crown Princess who had just married into the Eastern Palace! In front of him was the eunuch lackey who had threatened to hit him when he was down, and behind him was the seriously injured and unconscious Crown Prince's husband. Lin Suisui turned around and kissed her husband's thin lips with tears in her eyes… _________________________________ Song Mengmeng, the little Pi Xiu who was sleeping and fishing in the Immortal Realm's cave abode, had inexplicably dressed up as the pitiful cannon fodder who had the same name as her in the book. In order to recover the power of the divine beast and kill everyone in this world again, As the mythical beast Pi Xiu who was responsible for wealth, anything that could be solved with money was not a problem! However, there were times when the capital doubling machine would fail. Looking at the villain boss in front of him who was covered in purple qi and bursting with wealth, Song Mengmeng turned her head and quietly wiped the unknown liquid from the corner of her mouth. She stretched out her white and soft little paws shakily. She gently tugged at the corner of the big boss's clothes under the table and begged pitifully, Do you need someone to guard the door? The kind that could guard the house, earn money, and also exorcise evil spirits to ensure safety! As long as he was full. Looking at the soft little girl in front of him, the big boss nodded his head in a soft-hearted manner. Not long after… The soft little girl leaned into the big boss's arms and cried out her hunger. The big boss gently touched the little Pixiu's fair skin. A tender belly, Looking at the empty gold, silver, and jewelry in the safe, he fell into deep thought...

Nogizaka's dd

There was the ever-changing stock market, the struggles of bad women, and the despicable means used on his sisters. I guarantee that this book is definitely the home ground of Asuka. All of the above will happen. I started reading the book from the fifth volume because the author's brain had gone crazy.

Zhao Fou even wanted to matchmake her with her fourth brother. However, Zhao Silang did not agree. Zhao Silang was adamant about it. Zhao Silang was so against it that even Zhou Zhi had to ask him," Prince Zhao, getting married is not your life. What are you afraid of?" At this moment, the Zhou family's eldest son smiled without saying a word. There was a hidden knife in his eyes, and it seemed like he wanted Zhao family's fourth son's life.
