Synopsis
Beneath the city's neon lights lurk shadows that have yet to fade, while deep in abandoned rural villages lie old stories that refuse to rest.
There are no grotesque evil spirits here, only people driven into a corner by life, and wandering souls ensnared by desire.
A shared power bank traps the obsession of a night owl; an old elevator carries malice that has yet to run its course; in an abandoned village, a solitary shadow sits in a grand armchair, unwilling to be forgotten... Every tale is a strange incident in its own right, and behind every creepy story stands a very real, very human nature.
Fear never comes from some imaginary ghost. It stems from our own greed, exhaustion, indifference, and wishful thinking. A touch of absurd, dark humor threads through the darkness, while the thrills conceal a sharp edge that cuts through reality.
Open this book, and you won't encounter ghosts, but a labyrinth of human nature hidden in the everyday world, the most secretive and most chilling kind.
One book takes you through strange tales from city and countryside alike, with every step revealing the abyss of human nature.
A dark humor series that blends horror with reality.
