It's very beautiful, but why does it feel like there's no one there? The logic of this book is very strong, and each story is very unique. It gave me a very scary feeling, and this feeling continues. Other horror novels have scary scenes and scares, but the ending always solves or overcomes the fear, and then ends happily. But this book gave me the feeling that every story has an OE ending, and the final ending depends entirely on imagination. And it feels like there are a lot of professional vocabulary in it, and I feel like the author is really awesome 👍
Although it's a bit scattered, it's still quite scary. I don't know why so few people watch it.
