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.

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

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?

With a synopsis whose brevity of three lines says: "A book full of short horror stories." Some think that life today is one of horror in these pandemic times. Now ask: Is it possible to summarize horror in short stories? The book impacts us from the first chapter, it makes our skin crawl and it seems that we are there ... Is it forbidden to read at night and in the car!? ... Enjoy it!

"Terrifyingly creative, this anthology delivers bite-sized nightmares that pack a punch. From gritty survival horror to chilling emotional trauma, each short dives into a different corner of the undead apocalypse. Sir Faraz proves horror doesn’t need to be long to be legendary. These are the kind of stories that leave the lights on at night."

Didn't we agree that we wouldn't be bad singers?

In his previous life, the singer and songwriter Tao Yao, who ate the northwest wind when she was hungry and drank the toilet water when she was thirsty, had inexplicably transmigrated to a parallel world while she was washing the toilet. However, he found that there was no Jay Chou, Zhou Shen, Deng Ziqi, Faye Wong, and other well-known superstars in the world. There were only a bunch of singers that he had never heard of and their unbearable songs. When Tao Yao, who had countless classic songs from all over the world, met a boss who only wanted to ruin the company as soon as possible, what kind of sparks would there be between a genius and a madman? "What? Didn't you guys say that the lyrics of 'Skateboard Shoes' are at the elementary school level? Why is everyone singing?" " No, didn't we agree that everyone likes a more authentic European and American style? Why is this song,'Young For You', which doesn't even have a standard pronunciation, so popular?" "Hey, hey, that's too foul. How can a random song from the northeast that sings Two-people Rotation on the street become popular? What the hell is this 'Xianer'?"

Her parents doted on her, her brother doted on her, and her nephews fought to hug and protect her. Protect her? Su Su expressed that there was no need. She was a dignified divine beast, extremely brave and fierce! With her around, no one could bully the Qin family! Those who bullied her family would be beaten up, those who coveted her family's assets would be beaten up, and those who tried to kidnap her would be beaten up. The kidnapper who kidnapped Su Su was so frightened that he took the initiative to hand over his phone and beg her to call the police. "How do I turn on my phone?" Su Su asked. " You need a fingerprint to unlock it. Use my finger." the kidnapper explained. "Why are you using your fingers? Cut it down?" Su Su asked again. "No! You don't have to chop it, I can still use it!" The kidnapper wailed. Chop off his fingers! What was wrong with her brain? It was too terrifying! Ever since Su Su, who came with a good luck buff, came to the Qin family, the Qin family's luck had improved. Their business was booming, and the children who were originally disobedient had become more obedient. The whole family had become a team. What a lucky star.
