Using generations of folk tales as its foundation, the author weaves a mysterious and fantastical world. The plot is rooted in local memories, with ingenious touches like the application of eyes to paper dolls and the alteration of straw into masks; the writing is chilling, conjuring up vivid images of well reflections and red sedan chairs for nighttime weddings in just a few words.
The plot is full of twists and turns; this book is so exciting! It contains folk ghost stories and urban legends, and I couldn't put it down!
A particularly good suspenseful and supernatural story. The author's writing is excellent, and the story is smooth and exciting! A treasure of a book 💕💕
A terrifying and supernatural story, written with delicate and rich detail, suitable for fans of ghost stories. Updates will be sped up!
