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 aren't that scary!

[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.

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?

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.

Another common theme is the breakdown of sanity. The constant fear and oppression in an 'esclave horror story' can drive the enslaved characters mad. They start to hallucinate, lose their grip on reality, and become a shadow of their former selves. This not only affects the characters directly but also creates a more eerie and disturbing atmosphere for the audience as they watch the characters' mental decline.

One common theme is the fear of the unknown. In many horror stories, things like ghosts or strange creatures lurk in the shadows, and we don't really know what they are or what they can do. Another is death and the afterlife. Stories often play with the idea of what happens after we die, whether it's coming back as a vengeful spirit or something else. Isolation is also a theme. When characters are alone, like in a big, empty house or a desolate forest, it makes the horror more intense.

One theme could be isolation. For example, a person trapped alone in an old, abandoned mansion in the middle of nowhere. The lack of human contact and the strange noises in the empty halls can create a terrifying atmosphere. Another theme is the unknown. A story where strange things keep happening but there's no clear explanation, like objects moving on their own or unexplained voices. It plays on people's fear of the things they can't understand. And then there's the theme of death. Maybe a cursed object that brings death to whoever touches it, with each death being more gruesome than the last.

The real daughter has made the cultivation world crazy

In order to turn the tide in the other world, Lan Zhi was proficient in alchemy, talismans, and arrays. He was familiar with technology and intelligence. He could write in the north and shock ghosts and gods with his sword. Once she returned home, she was still a pitiful little girl with a star vein that had been whipped. The fake daughter who had taken over the magpie's nest could easily decide her life and death. Lan Zhi sneered and jumped off the cliff in front of everyone. If a cripple's body can't handle it, find a Star Academy to hide in. However, the Star Academy was too down and out. She had to spend some effort to help the Star Academy regain its glory after advancing three levels in a row.

For this reason, she created an instant messaging tool that was universal in the cultivation world, created an online trading platform that spread throughout the cultivation world, broke the monopoly of aristocratic families 'resources, realized the automatic production of pills, tools, and array talismans, and killed all the filthy beasts that attacked at night with a sword... He also became the richest man in the cultivation world. Everyone scrambled to learn from Lan Zhi. "I'm just familiar with it." Lan Zhi smiled humbly. His words caused the entire cultivation world to go crazy. The fake daughter who thought that she had gotten rid of Lan Zhi turned around and realized that she had lost everything unknowingly. She was both panicked and helpless." Where is the thing that belongs to me?" "I'm sorry, they were all eliminated," Lan Zhiyun said casually. - Lan Zhi was not lacking in wisdom, strategy, and tactics, but he lacked a little warmth. At some point, the Star Spirit God of All Things had quietly arrived by her side and pulled her into his embrace.
