The frightening scene in the toilet in the female dormitory at the beginning quickly creates a gloomy atmosphere through the description of the damp and musty environment and the flickering lights. In addition, the insertion of folk paper money, straw paper and other elements also gives the horror scene a bit of a localized weirdness. However, the shortcomings of the novel are also very obvious: the plot is heavily clichéd, and the classic plots can be seen from the table of contents. They are all common settings in folk horror and lack new ideas. The charm of folk horror lies in the human nature and story behind the taboo. If more foreshadowing can be done on the origin of the taboo and the character's past, so that horror is linked to human nature, the story may be able to have more depth.
This story is not just a horror and supernatural novel, there are many things in it that we need to learn and know. For example, things you should pay attention to when renting a house, the dangers of abortion, and people cannot bully honest people. Thank you to the author for telling us some little-known stories through stories. I hope the author can keep updating, I will keep giving rewards and keep following up! The author's writing style is also very good and the narrative is very clear. A good book worth recommending, it would be even better if it could be told by real people. I finished reading it in one sitting. It was so scary. I need to calm down. I had a great time reading the remaining chapters. I'm here to review again. The writing is really scary. I really enjoyed reading it. The story was told so well, and the author was so good at focusing on the key points, it made me jump and jump. Check it out again.
I clutched my phone the whole time and didn't dare to let go. I wanted to skip it several times but couldn't help but look down out of curiosity. After watching it, I didn't dare to go to the toilet. I stayed up until dawn before I dared to sleep! I sincerely recommend not to watch it at night, and those who are timid will be careful. The level of horror is really beyond the limit, and the stamina is too great to slow down!
Opening this collection of folk supernatural stories is like opening a secret door to a mysterious world. The author outlines each of the creepy and fascinating supernatural events with delicate writing style, and each story hides torture of human nature. In 250 words, I read about the modern inheritance of traditional ghost literature. The ghosts wandering between the lines are actually metaphors for various situations in the world. The text is sometimes eerie and terrifying, and sometimes tender, perfectly showing the complex intertwining of good and evil in folklore. It can be called a masterpiece of contemporary supernatural literature.
The author takes us into a countryside shrouded in silence from a first-person perspective. Those things passed down from ancestors cannot be touched, they turn out to be the boundary between life and death. The image is very strong, and the deserted village, twilight, and black shadows seem to be right in front of you. This is not a fantasy story, but a survival warning made of blood and tears. The chill lingers after reading it [Like]
This book is not a supernatural novel in the ordinary sense, it is more like a survival manual intertwined with rural secrets and ancient taboos. There are no gods or ghosts in the book, but the focus is on those "not to be touched" that have been passed down by word of mouth - guideposts, white crows, copper coins in old houses, foreign objects in the hands of children on rainy nights... Behind every taboo, there seems to be a heavy past. The author uses calm and precise writing skills to sew folklore and real life together. The story is concise in length but full of tension. It often plunges into a strange atmosphere at the beginning, making people feel spine-chilling but unable to put it down. It not only creates horror, but also contains warnings in the strange narrative, about choice, awe and cause and effect. Reading it is both immersive and shuddering, and also has profound aftertaste. If you are tired of routine thrillers and are eager to explore the unknown that is rooted in the countryside, full of fireworks and mystery, then this work will undoubtedly take you into a completely different, chilling but real world. Remember, some rules are not groundless.
A collection of supernatural short stories that startle you in one chapter, and the more you read, the more you read. This collection of supernatural short stories is a treasure for suspense lovers! The author is so captivating - each chapter is an independent story, concise in length but full of stamina, you can't stop reading it. The strange noises in the girls' dormitory late at night, the inexplicable appearance of long hair under the bed, and the flashing black shadow in the mirror give the campus a sense of spookiness and make you feel chills on your back while reading it. The story of Huangpizi from Northeast China also has its own sense of regional mystery, the reversal of gratitude and revenge, and folklore. The fusion of supernatural elements is both down-to-earth and full of unknown fear; and the chapters related to "Aventure" are a surprise. The fatal trap under the gentle appearance breaks the traditional supernatural routine. The sense of suspense has a hint of charming danger, which makes people more afraid and want to read more. What is most worthy of praise is the author's narrative skills: there is no lengthy foreshadowing, the plot is right at the beginning, the atmosphere is rendered with extreme precision, and a hair-raising scene can be outlined with just a few strokes; the logical closure of each story is superb, and the ending is both unexpected and reasonable, leaving an aftertaste that is enough to make people think about it for a long time. Whether you are a reader who likes campus supernatural stories, folk tales, or suspenseful twists and turns, you will find something to like in this book. It is definitely the best collection of supernatural short stories I have read recently. I look forward to more exciting works from the author in the future! I'm on top, and I look at it every day. Here comes the review again, it must be five stars, the work is too scary.
A record of rural life soaked in bloody dusk. Night Breeze 777 uses the first-person perspective to dissect the taboos that "cannot be touched", each of which is attached to the old traces of human life. The death energy on the guidepost, the soul of the baby taken away by the white crow, the broken armor on the child's hand - these laws that have been silently guarded for generations are actually the final boundary between life and death. Opening the pages of the book, it felt like tearing off the protective red rope with my own hands, and the coolness climbed up the wrist bones along the words. This is not a strange story, but a warning engraved with blood and tears among the people: there are some boundaries that will lead to eternal night if you cross them.
The author Yefeng777 writes a record of rural life soaked in bloody dusk from a first-person perspective. The book dissects those ancient taboos stained with human life, such as the breath of death on the guideposts, the souls of infants snatched away by white crows, and the broken armor on the palms of children - these laws that have been silently guarded by generations are essentially the final boundary markers between life and death. While reading, it felt as if I had torn the red rope that protected me with my own hands, and the coolness between the lines quietly clung to me. This is not a simple strange story, but the ultimate warning carved with blood and tears by the people: some boundaries, once crossed, will lead to eternal night.
This is a supernatural novel that makes people feel "chills running down their backs" the more they read it! It does not write about imaginary fairies and monsters, but talks about the taboos in the countryside that involve human life - guideposts cannot be touched, white crows in the maternity room cannot be chased away, and every "not to do" sentence is a warning for a living person to break through the gate of hell. The writing is particularly smooth, and as soon as details such as the twilight in the deserted village and the seduction of white crows are revealed, a sense of gloom is immediately wrapped around the body. The storyline is even more gripping: the person who moved the guidepost was led into the mountain by cold hands, the person who chased away the white crow was followed by a black shadow, and every taboo was a transgression of horror. When I watched it, I couldn't bear to stop, I just wanted to follow the protagonist to find out these life-saving rural laws. Recommended to everyone, looks great! !
