   These are three supernatural novels that I consider quite good. The first, *The Three Corpses' Tale*, has a protagonist whose character is a bit hard to judge, but the author is undeniably skilled at writing. Because the protagonist is an ordinary person, the early and middle parts are quite frightening. The second is a classic supernatural novel that needs no introduction. The third is one of the few novels that truly embraces the supernatural throughout; it leans towards suspense, but also has some thrilling elements.

45. 45 白 You Won’t Find This During the Day: One Ghost Story Every Day 白天刷不到：每天一个诡故事 Hong Jiu洪氿Mystery590k WordsCompleted I’m a horror writer who publishes online. I have no fame and no income, so I can only grab people’s attention by writing the most sinister, unsettling, and realistic stories. To make them feel “real,” I’m used to grounding my characters in details from the real world: real streets, real neighborhoods, real outfits, and real little gestures. I always thought a novel was just a novel. That is, until the serial killer I wrote stepped out of my story and found me in the real world. 897Reads—Score—Shelves
