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!

This novel is a perfect mix of horror, action, mystery, friendship, comedy and romance. Each ghost that appears is quite unique. Chen's spooky forced girlfriend is my favorite character.

Female Supporting Script

Many scenes, a dull and mediocre life, both lucky and sad. She was the one who dared to love and hate, and she was the one who was weak. Among the thousands of people, she was the only one in the world. She was a noble princess, but she was also a lowly and filthy poor person. In reality, she was holding a supporting role script, and she was the main character in the life script. She could distinguish between good and evil and choose between good and evil. She was ruthless, arrogant, and extravagant. She was notorious in history for being evil and kind. Who wrote the book of history? She was the representative of one of the ten million decadent thoughts. She was gentle and pedantic. She lived by relying on men when she was alive and did not cling to anyone after death. Cold and noble was the last adjective for her. The new force of her country's future, cowardice, concession, no progress, no repentance is synonymous with her? She was so ordinary that she was like a speck of dust. When faced with career, love, and dreams, her desire was stronger than her nature. When faced with gains and losses, she cared too much. When faced with beauty, her heart was filled with longing. In an era where material desires were rampant, how could she find herself?

The image of the Imperial Concubine as a salted fish has collapsed again.

Yu Tian had transmigrated into the book and became the demon concubine who had caused disaster in the book. In order to avoid a tragic death, Yu Yao decided to wear a small vest to develop wretchedly, just to be a qualified salted fish and avoid the sharpness of the male and female leads. An imperial edict descended from the sky, and Yu Yao became the new imperial consort. What palace fight? What fight for favor? Sorry, bengong only wants to be a qualified salted fish, to endure the emperor to death, and to be the imperial concubine. It was rumored that the Emperor of the Beijin Kingdom was as handsome as a god, and he was bloodthirsty. He also suffered from some unspeakable illness. Therefore, he had been in power for many years and had few children. He only had one crown prince. Yu Yao had originally thought that she and the dog Emperor were not fated to be together in this lifetime. However, she did not expect that after entering the palace, the dog Emperor would flip her card every few days. "Emperor, your body is not good. You should rest early." One night, Yu Yao was forced to the foot of the bed. "My beloved consort will know after tonight whether my body is alright or not." After a night, the emperor ate the marrow and refused to stop. Yu Tian, who was originally determined to be a salted fish to the end, had accidentally become the Emperor's favorite. He had also accidentally exposed all kinds of small identities that blinded everyone's eyes. He had also accidentally raised the Crown Prince who would unify the world in the future and directly walked to the peak of his life.
