The following is a list of recommended ghost novels:
1. " Ghost Inn of Liao Zhai ": This is a novel about a mysterious world. The author is Furless Orange.
2. The Ginger and Gourd Fairy of the Liao Zhai Divine Code was a short story by the author who saw the sunrise again.
3. [Records of the Gods and Demons]: This was a novel written by a mountain man.
These books belonged to the genre of ghost stories, containing elements of suspense and wonderful worlds.
One more that could be popular is 'The Ghost Train'. The idea of a phantom train that appears out of nowhere, often in areas where there has been a train accident in the past, is really spooky. Passengers on the train might see strange faces at the windows or feel a cold chill as the ghost train passes by. It combines the fear of the unknown with the eery atmosphere of trains and the places they travel through.
For wuxia romances, 'Sword Stained with Royal Blood' has interesting romantic elements. In terms of Chinese ghost stories, there are many traditional ones passed down orally. They often involve the theme of love between humans and ghosts, like the story where a scholar falls in love with a female ghost who has some unfinished business in the mortal world. These stories usually carry a certain sense of mystery and the exploration of human nature.
Sure. One could be 'The Haunted House on Elm Street' from that list. It's about a family that moves into an old house and starts experiencing strange noises and apparitions at night.
One interesting ghost story could be the haunted mansion story. Often, people report seeing apparitions of former residents in old, large mansions. They might see a lady in a white dress walking the hallways at night.
A certain mansion had a very strange story. The owners would find doors opening and closing by themselves. There were also unexplained footsteps on the stairs. A psychic was called in, and she said there was a presence of a former owner who was not happy with the changes made to the house. It was a long and detailed investigation that involved many strange occurrences.
One well - known story could be 'The Turn of the Screw'. It's a chilling tale with a governess who believes she sees the ghosts of former employees at the estate where she works. Another might be 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow', which features the infamous Headless Horseman. And 'A Christmas Carol' also has some ghostly elements with the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future visiting Scrooge.
For me, 'The Ghostly Orphan' is really scary. It's about an orphanage where the children can hear the cries of a dead child at night. Another scary one is 'The Demon in the Cellar'. Just the thought of a demon lurking in the cellar is terrifying. And 'The Haunted Asylum' with its insane ghosts and spooky hallways is also very frightening.
Some of the well - known ones are 'A Christmas Carol'. In it, there are ghosts like Jacob Marley and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future which take Ebenezer Scrooge on a journey of self - discovery and transformation.
Sure. There are horror - based ghost stories that aim to scare the reader or listener with terrifying ghosts. And there are mystery - type ghost stories, where the identity or purpose of the ghost is a mystery to be solved. Also, there are the comical ghost stories, which are less scary and more about the humorous interactions between the living and the ghosts.
