Bao Dadan’s True Accounts of Ghost Encounters 包大胆撞鬼实录
“You’ve heard of people who are ‘bold beyond belief,’ but have you ever seen someone scare a ghost into shutting itself away?” My name is Bao Dadan. It’s not a stage name, it’s my real name. My friends say I’m missing a screw, but they changed their minds after seeing it for themselves: I talked the “haunting female ghost” the landlord warned me about into silence; I roasted a “human-faced fish” deep in the mountains with pepper until it shrieked; even the “Slit-Mouthed Woman” covered her mask a

The Deadly Mirror Image in the Symmetrical Bathroom 对称浴室的死亡镜像
“At three in the morning, I saw my ‘future husband’s’ face in the mirror, and three days later, he ran me over with his SUV until I was nothing but scraps.” My landlady told me in a hushed voice that if I recited an incantation to a mirror at midnight for 49 days in a row, I’d see my destined partner. On the 47th day, her son’s twisted smile appeared in the mirror. I screamed and fled the apartment, but at the intersection he ran over me four times, reversing each time. The police said he kept s

Horror Sketches 恐怖素描
“The day I was accepted into art school through the recommendation program, I drew the killer who murdered Teacher Zhou with my own hands: the faceless woman who had been draped over my back for three whole months.” In the dead of night, a blizzard battered the studio windows with a crackling roar. I curled up in the bathroom and vomited, but a pale body slowly emerged in the mirror. Her long hair wound around my neck, her rotting fingertips stroked my spine, and where her face should have been.

The Night Shift Passage: An Invitation from the Dead 夜班通道:亡者邀请函
“Every night at ten, I open the supermarket’s rolling shutter right on time, never knowing that another world lies hidden at the end of the aisles: a black-gang nightclub that was burned to the ground. For two years, I watched my coworkers ‘disappear’ one by one. Even their names seemed to be erased, until Wang Tao grabbed my arm in the emergency exit, and a girl crawling with maggots in the Golden Ballroom pressed close to my ear and said, ‘Welcome to Brother Feng’s club.
