Ghost Gate Coffin

[85 points·Supernatural suspense] A novel that combines folk taboos and urban ghost stories. The protagonist accidentally comes into contact with something sinister due to his playfulness when he was young, and is forced to get involved in the mysterious "miscellaneous door" business. From then on, he has to deal with the night ghosts and the secret arts of witches and Nuo. The plot revolves around the "Coffin Gate", the first of the eight folk burial gates. It includes traditional elements such as exorcism in Xiangxi and the curse of hanging coffins, as well as settings such as supernatural shelter organizations and weird shelter foundations in modern cities. It seems to combine the sense of adventure of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" with the suspenseful atmosphere of "Lord of the Mystery". The overall rhythm is tight, with both independent supernatural events in a single chapter and worldview puzzles throughout the book. It is suitable for readers who like hard-core supernatural themes.
