There is no continuous main plot and no characters whose stories intertwine. Every tale is a completely independent, unrelated horror story.
A haunted red bridal veil, a paper figure that comes back to life, a theatrical shadow that can kill, a banquet that steals years from your life, a phone you must never answer in the hallway at midnight...
Each story forms a complete loop, one after another, all drawn from taboos passed down through generations.
Some people ignore the rules and put themselves in danger. Some invite evil spirits in with a moment of weakness. Others step into a deadly trap out of curiosity.
Every experience is a brush with death.
The whole book is chilling when you think it over, with no connected foreshadowing. Open to any chapter and you'll be plunged straight into a bone-chilling nightmare.
