Horror Novels Full of Oppression and Despair
Use ghosts to fight ghosts. Wielding their power should come with a price, such as the risk of a fierce ghost reviving. Ideally, it should have some of the same elements as Mysterious Revival: ghosts can't be killed, and only ghosts can fight ghosts.
Looking for Books About Taoist Arts, Magic, Ghost Hunting, Cultivation, and More
The protagonist should have some skills from the start and gradually grow stronger later on. Male perspective.

Hello everyone, I am the author of this book. Thank you so much for reading my book. Your viewing, It has greatly motivated my creative work. The only regret is that I am not a full-time author. During the day, they have to work like beasts of burden, and only at night do they have time to create. I am also very grateful for everyone's understanding.
I've recently been really enjoying this novel. It's both scary and funny, and the male lead doesn't have any of the weird, cheesy moments you'd find in horror novels. He's quick-witted, not a pushover, and has a great sense of humor. It's really a great read. The plot is quite terrifying, a bit like the last bus on the road. I hope the author keeps up the good work!
The story unfolds crisply and cleanly, avoiding forced scare tactics and relying on plot and foreshadowing to create tension. The multiple plot twists are particularly cleverly designed, with all the details planted earlier coming together. Looking back after watching, you realize how many foreshadowing elements there were, making for a very enjoyable read. The only drawback is that it's too short.
Amazing!! I've read a lot of horror novels on my bookshelf, but usually the protagonist grows stronger over time, which makes them less scary. This one, however, has the perfect pacing. The protagonist doesn't have any extraordinary abilities, but he's just right to solve the puzzles.
It's really good! Some parts of the plot are quite humorous, and the old immortal's lines have a comedic feel. There are also some scary parts that are very immersive; just thinking about those scenes makes me scared [petrified]. Overall, it's a very good watch—highly recommended!
Great book. Some parts were truly chilling, and the protagonist isn't just mindlessly strong. It's a good supernatural story, highly recommended. I hope there will be fewer Riddler-like scenes; I just want the Riddler to obediently return to Gotham, it's so infuriating.
This is a pretty good book; the level of eeriness is just right. I've read a lot of horror novels, and I feel that once a character takes a powerful master as their apprentice, it's hard to maintain that atmosphere. But in this book, no one is explicitly a good person. That's great. However, I have a question: does this old immortal actually like the male lead?
So far, everything is fine. The side stories are well-written, better than most supernatural books on Tomato (a Chinese online literature platform). Right now, all supernatural stories are system-driven wish-fulfillment novels, which is ridiculous. Author, keep it up, update Ten Thousand Snake Town soon! 😘
The author's writing is exquisite, and the plot is captivating. Every update leaves readers wanting more, and we eagerly await new chapters in the comments section every day. With such outstanding writing skills, please don't slack off and stop updating! All the readers are anxiously waiting for update notifications. If there's a delay, we'll form a group to urge the author to finish writing soon and release the exciting sequel. Don't keep everyone in suspense!
The Curse of the Vengeful Ghost was the first horror novel I ever read, and it was amazing! The writing style is very similar to another one; I never imagined they were by the same author.
