   Since "The Haunted House" is so popular, I won't recommend it. Instead, I'll recommend some other books. The first one has a very novel concept: the closer you get to the truth, the closer you get to death. The second one has a great atmosphere in its dungeons; you can't imagine the bizarre rules of murder until the very last moment, especially the school dungeon. I haven't had that creepy feeling in the middle of the night in a long time. The third one is an older book, decent but not bad. The beginning is a bit better. The fourth one isn't an infinite dungeon type, but the weirdness in it is way too much, so I have to strongly recommend it. The last one is one I wrote myself, also an infinite dungeon type. I'm recommending it through this post. The protagonist has a team, and there are various types of dungeons. If you find any flaws or things that might bother you, feel free to comment. I'm not sensitive and will reply when I see them.
