Shelf Speech_1

It's finally on the shelves.

First and foremost, I'd like to thank Master Ruoye from Qidian's Ninth Editing Group for giving this newbie plenty of advice, including recommending lots of horror movies—although I still haven't dared to watch them...

My experience with horror novels is quite limited, and with thriller movies just a tad more; in fact, while writing this book, I've realized a rather realistic issue. That is, when it comes to our domestic audience, truly horrifying and thrilling works usually involve ghosts, and once the story transitions into monster territory, it's not quite as scary anymore.

For example, watching "The Conjuring" might scare me, but watching "Alien" just makes me think how awesome the monster is, and with "A Chinese Ghost Story," I only end up marveling at how huge those robes are.
