This novel broke the traditional ghost story and added humorous elements, allowing you to feel the horror and appreciate the humor. 2. " Strange Simulation: My Words Are Strange and Strange " was a story about a high-level cultivation civilization that fought against horror and strangeness. Although it was very dangerous when faced with strangeness, the protagonist's strange ability made people laugh. 3. " Abducting the Rich Wife: My Boss Is a Ghost " was about a female protagonist who was lured into a hotel that specializes in serving ghosts and found out that her BOSS was a ghost.

One easy ghost story is 'The Haunted House on the Hill'. A family moves into an old house. At night, they hear strange noises like creaking floors and whispering voices.

Simple plots. Easy scary stories often have straightforward storylines. For example, 'The Monkey's Paw' has a clear plot of a family making wishes and facing the dreadful outcomes. They also use common fears like the fear of the unknown, as in 'The Red Room' where the source of the spookiness is not clearly defined at first. And they usually have relatable characters so that readers can easily put themselves in the characters' shoes.
Isolation can be a key factor. In the story of the woman on the lonely road, being alone in a desolate place amps up the fear. Also, the unknown. When you don't know what's making the noise or what the glowing eyes belong to, it scares you. Dark and creepy settings, like an abandoned building, add to the scariness as well. They give a sense of danger and the unexpected.
One easy to read ghost story is 'The Tell - Tale Heart' by Edgar Allan Poe. It's short and engaging, with a narrator who tries to convince the reader of his sanity while describing his act of murdering an old man because of his 'evil eye'. The suspense builds up as the narrator hears the heartbeat of the dead man under the floorboards. Another is 'The Monkey's Paw' which is about a family who gets a magical paw that can grant wishes, but with horrible consequences.
