Journey to the End of the Night

In the Kunlun Snow Palace, a sage once said, those who pass away wander, while the living cannot let go. Once the soul departs, it will wither like the autumn grass. Those who are reborn from the dead, existing apart from the mortal realm, shall be shunned by all celestial sects and smitten as undead demons. On this day, a youth awakens from within a coffin, his blood dry and his bones chilled, to find himself a century old upon opening his eyes. A single tear from a sage awaited, a constant companion, may unravel the dreams of the past. Seeking not immortality but a mundane death, not to lament with the ages over lost love and resentment, but only wishing to grow old with tenderness in this lifetime, beneath the white clouds that hold no envy for the heavenly realms.

One could be the main character suddenly hearing a strange noise right outside the supposedly safe room they've barricaded themselves in. It leaves the reader wondering if the source of the noise will break in and harm the character.

One cliffhanger could be the main character suddenly seeing a pair of glowing eyes in the darkness just as they think they are safe. Another could be a door slowly creaking open on its own when the protagonist has just started to relax. And a third could be the sound of a strange chanting starting up again just as the sun is about to rise.

Cliffhangers enhance the end of a horror story by leaving the reader with a sense of unease. For example, if the story ends with a character being dragged into the darkness while screaming, the reader is left imagining all the horrible things that could happen next.

They create anticipation. Let's say a horror story ends with a character looking into a mirror and seeing a strange reflection that starts to move towards them. This makes the reader eager to know what would happen next. It also makes the story more memorable because it stays in the reader's mind, like a nagging question that they can't shake off. In a way, cliffhangers can make the horror feel more real and immediate as the reader is left to fill in the blanks with their own fears.

Cliffhangers drive serial readership but can frustrate. The story balances hooks with satisfaction—each chapter resolves something while opening new questions. The emotional payoffs are genuine, not just bait-and-switch.

After rebirth, she changed the world

Sheng Jiao, who had been brought home by her biological parents but had her superpower taken away by her adopted daughter and thrown out of the base, was reborn after dying under the siege of zombies. He was reborn in a parallel universe. At this time, Sheng Jiao had not been taken away by the Ye family. She had not been framed by her adopted daughter, bullied, humiliated, and died with grievances. After her rebirth, Sheng Jiao decided to kick away her cold and heartless family and focus on being her savior. In the 13th year of the apocalypse, humans discovered a strange livestream room. There were zombies running amok in this world, but the situation was much better than theirs. The singer of the benefit performance did not commit suicide because of his brother's death. Instead, he wrote a song that had a healing effect and resisted the attack of the zombie tide. The base that killed superpowered people did not become a malignant tumor. Instead, it was completely annihilated when it was still in its infancy. The doctor who was bitten by the patient did not die with his precious healing power. He worked diligently to treat the patient and developed an antidote to resist the zombie virus. A man with a special ability who should have died of a serious illness in the early days of the apocalypse miraculously came back to life. Even the research institute that was forced to stop its research received funding from kind-hearted people and ended the apocalypse. The humans in the apocalypse were in an uproar. They wanted to find a way to end the apocalypse like the people in that world. The higher-ups of the base were ashen. Only they knew that the person who had changed the world had long been thrown into the zombie pile by them. They had destroyed hope with their own hands, and they had also seen Sheng Jiao break free from the shackles of fate and shine in the parallel universe.
