   Highly recommend 5 good books on folk supernatural themes! 1. The first folk taboo: You can see all kinds of horrific folk customs in it, such as painted skins to summon spirits and tattoos to bring blessings, making it difficult for you to tell whether they are true or false. 2. The dead burn incense, and the dolls sit in the hall: a niche supernatural book, highly recommended, I feel creepy every time I read it. 3. Psychic and strange things: using various folk tricks to catch ghosts, a growth-type theme, you can check it out if you like, the writing is good. 4. The Story of Strange Stories in a Mountain Village: Using the Five Immortals of the Northeast as an introduction, the protagonist slowly grows up, and the growth-type folklore and supernatural novel becomes more exciting in the later stages. 5. Notes from Folk Feng Shui Masters: The writing is very exciting, and there are some Feng Shui knowledge in it that makes it difficult for you to distinguish between true and false. I like this feeling of reading novels and learning some conversational knowledge at the same time!
