The relatable aspects. We all know what it's like to be clumsy or make mistakes. When a scary character like a zombie does something really clumsy, like tripping over its own feet while chasing someone, it makes the story interesting. We can laugh at the character's misfortune even though it's supposed to be a scary entity. This mix of the relatable and the spooky - funny creates a unique and interesting appeal in hilarious scary stories.

The unexpected twists. For example, when a monster is about to attack but then slips on a banana peel. It combines the fear factor of a monster with the comicality of an everyday accident.

I Was Caught Up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

I Was Caught Up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

It all happened so abruptly. After finally grasping my situation, I found myself in an entirely different world. Looking around, I noticed others in the same predicament… Could this possibly be one of those Hero developments? Was there a tyrannical Demon Lord needing extermination, or would I be tossed into the maelstrom of war? Whatever it was, I was afraid. I never wanted to be a Hero. I don’t want to harm another…… Ignore the nonsense I was spouting; there was nothing to fret over. The Demon Lord was slain a thousand years ago, and 800 years had passed since the last war. The nobles didn’t treat us summoned like tr*sh; instead, we were kindly cared for. The Demons have been on good terms with Humans for some time now. Dangers, such as monsters, were being taken care of by the Guild and the Order of Knights. What’s more surprising is the fact that I wasn’t even a hero! Instead, I was unintentionally summoned! It also turns out that this world was a world in which the three races, the Spirit World’s Magical Races, the Celestial World’s Divine Races, and the Mortal World’s Human Races, are kind neighbours. Here, everyone lives a peaceful and fulfilling life. In summary, this other world was――at peace. What’s my plan for the future? For my limited stay here, I will live this world to its fullest; going on a cultural exchange, sightseeing, then, after experiencing the festival that is only held once every ten years, …… I shall safely return home. However, despite my lust for a peaceful last year before returning, this planet’s heavyweights have begun amassing around me, and……

Is that a Wisp?

Is that a Wisp?

Author's Note: The start of the story is very slow and cliche. Give it a chance until the wisp reaches the human cities. It's at that point that the book's charm shows itself (Around chapter 20, all free!). --- What if a wisp, with zero EQ about human culture and habits, gains the opportunity to finally achieve human form? Now he can enter cities, experience technology, and fight his way to the top, right? In this universe where wisps are seen as nothing more than resources, a wisp stands up to challenge the wisps' destiny! Not without causing a lot of misunderstandings on his way, of course… --- Realms: Qi Condensation; Foundation Establishment; Core Formation; Divine Soul; Soul Forging; Void Breaking; Divine Path; Divine View; Semi Divinity; Divinity. --- Transformation; Mortal Rejection; Godly Fusion; God Foundation; God Core; Nascent God; --- Semi-God Realm; God Trial Realm; Elementary God Realm; Primal God Realm; God Realm. https://discord.gg/mR3pzMN Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/suiyan

The social context. The 1800s had a strict social order. So when something disrupted that, like a serial killer or a supposed witch, it was not only scary but also a threat to the established way of life. For example, Jack the Ripper not only terrified people with his murders but also made them question the safety of the city streets.

Well, it's a combination of things. First, the setting often plays a big role. A dark, isolated place like an old castle or a fog - covered graveyard creates an instant spooky mood. Then there are the characters, which can be both ordinary people facing extraordinary and terrifying events, or supernatural beings that we don't fully understand. And the plot twists, where things turn out very differently from what we expect, are also a key element. For instance, in a story where a person thinks they've found a safe haven from a vampire but it turns out to be the vampire's lair. All these elements together make cool but scary stories really interesting.

The unique Nigerian culture. Their traditions, languages, and ways of life add a special flavor. For example, the way Nigerians use proverbs in comical situations. When someone exaggerates a story and then throws in a proverb that doesn't quite fit but still makes sense in a funny way. Also, the big families in Nigeria often lead to chaotic and humorous family dynamics, like when cousins compete in the silliest ways or when uncles tell tall tales to the kids. Another element is the bustling Nigerian markets where all kinds of strange and funny interactions can happen between traders and customers.

The fear of the unknown. We don't really know if ghosts exist, so when we hear these stories, our minds start imagining all kinds of spooky things. In a fake story about a haunted well, we don't know what might be lurking down there, and that's what makes it interesting. Also, the setting plays a big role. A dark, isolated place like an old castle or a thick forest in the story gives a sense of dread. The anticipation of something scary about to happen also keeps us interested. We hold our breath waiting for the next spooky event in the story.
