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'‽"

[Horror Game Developer : My games really aren't that scary!] I hate horror.

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!

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?

Korean horror films have been around since the early years of Korean cinema, however, it was not until the late 1990s that the genre began to experience a renewal. Many of the Korean horror films tend to focus on the suffering and the anguish of characters rather than focus on the explicit "blood and guts" aspect of horror. Korean horror features many of the same motifs, themes, and imagery as Japanese horror. Modern South Korean horror films are typically distinguished by stylish directing, themes of social commentary, and genre blending. The horror and thriller genres are cited as gaining international attention to South Korean Cinema. American Hollywood has adapted several Korean horror films such as Oldboy (2003 film), Into the Mirror (2003), and A Tale of Two Sisters (2003). Train to Busan (2016) and The Wailing (film) (2016) are rumored to currently have remakes in talks for production.

Death is also a big part of it, whether it's the characters facing their own mortality or the death of others which adds to the horror atmosphere.

One common theme is the fear of the unknown. Things like strange noises in the dark or shadowy figures that you can't quite make out. It plays on our natural fear of what might be lurking out there.

One common theme is the supernatural. Ghosts, demons, and otherworldly creatures often appear in horror stories to terrify the characters and the readers. Another theme is the fear of the unknown. When things are not clearly explained, it creates a sense of unease. For example, in many horror stories, there are mysterious noises or events that gradually build up the horror. Also, death and decay are frequently used themes. The sight of decaying bodies or the inevitability of death can be very frightening.

Common themes in horror stories include fear of the unknown. This could be an unexplained phenomenon in a small town or a strange noise in the attic that no one can figure out. Another theme is madness. A character gradually losing their sanity due to some dark influence is a classic horror trope. Also, the theme of the doppelganger, where a character encounters an exact or sinister double of themselves, is often seen.

Making waves in thousands of worlds

#Not playing by the rules, wildly dragging the bossy young lady of Chu Tianba × The Lord God who is soft and cute on the surface but paranoid and dark on the inside # #The Son of the Heavenly Axiom doted on by thousands of worlds x The Supreme Law God of thousands of worlds #Life is constantly going up and down. After Zhiyi spread to various worlds, she wanted to take a vacation and experience the style of other worlds. The thing she wanted to do the most was to lie on her 800-square-meter bed and look at the sea outside. She also wanted to bully the honest and ignorant local Son of Heavenly Axiom. At some point, a person appeared beside her. Every part of his body was Zhiyi's ideal type. It was simply an ideal type that was tailor-made for her. Zhiyi wanted to stay away from him awkwardly, but she could not help but be attracted and want to get close to him. Yi Chuan deliberately created a character that Zhiyi liked the most, and knelt in front of Zhiyi to pray for love in a soft voice. Zhiyi felt that she could. Later on, the world fell into darkness, and all the things she liked disappeared. Zhiyi sensed that the person behind her was holding her in his arms. His arms tightened inch by inch, and his body trembled slightly as if he was afraid and excited. His almost infatuated words were gentle and creepy. He seemed to be sighing softly beside her ear and couldn't help but kiss Zhiyi's wrist. His voice was blurry and wet." Mine." "Ah Yi belongs to me…" A Yi: F * ck you. [Demining] 1.
