Supernatural Revival: Strange Tales from Republican-Era China

Female lead: Zhang Youhong. Second female lead: Meng Xiaodong. Twin Red Staffs: Luo Qian and Luo Wensong. Cave Heaven Emperor: Zhang Dong.

In the chaotic years of the Republic of China, ghosts roam the night and supernatural disasters ravage the human world.

Down-on-his-luck young man Li Shou’an accidentally stumbles upon a bizarre murder, forcing him onto the deadly path of a ghost handler. He has no innate supernatural powers and no heaven-sent cheats. Surrounded by evil spirits and facing danger at every turn, he uses his mortal body to withstand supernatural curses, struggling to survive as one of the lowest-ranking ghost handlers.

Together with his close friend Zhang Dong, his confidantes Zhang Youhong and Meng Xiaodong, and Luo Qian and Luo Wensong, he ventures into deadly places, unravels sinister schemes, and investigates cold cases, gradually uncovering the shocking truth behind the supernatural calamities sweeping through the Republic of China!

(Some of the original novel’s setting has been revised. The protagonist won’t take off until around chapter forty, when he gains control of the Starving Ghost!)
