HELP since many people are giving this novel a bad review, and not liking this— here’s a review from a person who LOVES this novel.

I read a LOT of horror novel. I love horror and this can be rank in my top 10 list. why is it in my top ten when people are giving SO MANY bad reviews? Easy. It’s very light, and somehow sweet if you compared this to other horror novels. Like man, smaa is one of my top 3 and it would take me a whole... more>> ass courage to read it again while this, I would read this again anytime.

this advantage; comedy, and the ghost.

i love the comedy, and the MC kinda odd behavior but what I LOVE is the ghost. They are just so f*cking funny. I love the way the movie ghost got themselves a emotiocon or the way that house ghost got it’s house demolished because of the Xiao Li. It just very memorable, and felt really different.

Also, there are some reviews saying that Xiao Li is VERY bland but I would like to disagree. As someone who has experienced a similar type of situation as Xiao Li, this is kinda normal on how we act. It’s like people using dark humor to coat. The love Xiao Li want, I can understand it. It’s just very hard for the type of person to love again. Tho, I don’t have the same definition of love as Xiao Li, I can understand on why he wanted that type of obsessively controlled love.

like it’s mentioned, it made him safe. Also, arguably the MC do have a personality. He is just little unfeeling, and lack emotions. It’s just black and white for him BUT if you been in same situation as him, or similar, you could understand him because lol at some point I act like that too. It’s just hard to express some emotions at the time. Tiring.

but not all people with this type of situation has this problem. Only some, or many about 20/100 who knows lol.

It’s disadvantages; the ml.

Tbh, the ML made me feel uncomfortable at times to times. Like the second arc, where he made me WAY TOO f*cking uncomfortable. However, I love the way that Male Lead somehow restrain himself not wanting the MC to get mad at him. It’s kinda funny seeing him suffer lol.

Last part, the plot.

plot is just 7/10 to me but it get a 10/10 because of the way the author presented the ghost and the way the author presented the MC. There are many people who doesn’t like expressing emotions or is too tired to express— heck, to even get to know them. I love the way the author presented it but what make this more diverse is the ghost.

The ghost are just on next level, and the way MC reacts indifferently to them is just 10/10. It always get my ass. I would be holding my laughers in the middle of night because MC did something odd or something... out of human’s expatiation again. It’s just very funny and I love the way my two fav troupe are mix in here.

GHOST THE MVP OF THE NOVEL !! <<less

This is probably the 2nd horror like Asian novel I had started. The motion of it is just right. It isn't too fast paced or too slow. Well, I admit, I could have done with a little more dog food in earlier chapters... But with how everything went, I'm quite satisfied. I would absolutely reread again. I have nothing more to say. It was enjoyable, amusing, thought provoking... Just a really great read.

Thank you for translating this novel. I really love the plot totally the horror, thrilling, exciting! The MC is so cool plus the ML non-stop try chasing him that so cute. The romance and the ups down totally makes me really excited reading it. Well for other readers, read this novel at night. Hehehe XD ^0^

it was an interesting read with mysteries and comedic undertone with trolling ghosts. With the help of this novel, I have overcame the fear of ghosts and eternal darkness.

The lack of romance was a bit hurtful but I enjoyed how ML tried to ‘woo’ MC so much. They are adorable and nothing can scare them.

Don't read it if you're looking for romance. ML barely does anything to contribute to the main plot and just is just there either following MC or disappearing. Making lecherous comments to the MC is pretty much his only characteristic.

The plot is okay. It's fun seeing how many different ways MC stumps the ghosts.

I had high hopes for this novel. However, the more I read, the more I feel... bored.

First of all, the instances are not at all exciting. There's no suspense, no thrill, nothing. Each instance that the MC goes through is just plain boring and quite illogical too (for example, if the characters need to find the password to open something, the MC just puts in a password and when he is asked how he found out the password, he just states something that does not really connect to the password... more>> or doesn't make much sense). The MC is too overpowered and the support characters are just depicted as little dogs following the MC because they are too scared. Quite pathetic, really.

Also, sometimes the instances really don't make sense.
Spoiler

Such as the instance where there was the phone call ghost. I still don't understand why the girl in the CG is connected to the ghost. The ghost had no reason to attack her!

I really like this novel, actually I'm not really a fan of scary novels. I don't even know why I was so obsessed with infinite flows when I was so easily scared.

However, this novel just happened to really fit my taste, specially the comedy, and ML's occasional dirty dreams.

The MC was also the type that I really like in this genre.

I just hope that this novel would be finished soon, so the translator can finally pick up their translations.

I honestly love this novel to death.

No kidding.

At first I was confused and scared, but then I realized that... Nothing is as frightening as the MC. Excluding ML, he's just a yellow gay book, shameless and confusing. Strong, but meh. He's wasting it with his personality.

... more>>
Spoiler

MC was unlucky perhaps, entered this kind of horror game. The game package came along with a yellow book, literally and metaphorically—The ML. Nothing known about his real identity, but his human form was already revealed. So, MC is like a heaven-defying guy, super OP, like how could you befriend (not so much for them, poor Ghosts) Ghosts so easily? Ghosts are scared of him cuz *beep*. So in this game, he have 3 identities as for now, and basically destroyed the image of those three owners of names he was borrowing from. Two of it made it to top list and spectators speculated that they're enemies (hint hunt, names). He have two friends, and they each supporting different person when technically they're the same person, MC's fault here, he's too lazy to reveal his identity and alternating using his pseudonyms. At present, the global instance of the game has been opened, so I am expecting something to happen, maybe the real plot. And the relationship is suppperrr slow, kind of wanting to just locked them in a room so they would at least do something. Or not. This isn't for you who love fall-in-love-at-the-first-sight novels, also those who don't like OP MC. Example, he could use his Ghosts friends to clear each instances and earn S rating. He also could avoided death effortlessly. And he used the ghost without the ghosts's consent and they're not happy at all seeing him again.

[collapse]

Aside from the suppperrr slow romance—I'm just exaggerating it, this is a good novel. I don't feel scared when I saw the Ghosts in this novel. I feel pity, they would always ended up scared of MC.

Forgive my confusing English. <<less

At first the story was kinda intriguing its making me want to read more but as the plot goes by and more missions occur it really became boring. I have already read up to chapter 78 but the progress between the ML and MC is still stock like the first or second chapter of the story.

This is fun and relaxedly. It's different from novels about survival games because of comedy side. Not horror at all.

MC not similar to other people. He doesn't just doesn't fear he is really doesn't take into account the simplest horror movie rules. He is weird but this is hilariously to watch. His actions reach the point of absurdity and you just enjoying the show. When people trying to survive this one playing he is really joyful.

Probably only one person really can accept his personality. It's also gaily, he takes the... more>> different shapes but usually he is a book hah. Book which writes about his love. He so cute. He stubbornly pursues him but he is afraid that he will not accept him.

This is specialized in instances about ghosts and now obviously why MC doesn't have friends, because from attitude with ghosts all is clear. <<less

The novel is sooo good !!!it's a horror novel with honestly no tension. Probably should be called a comedy novel. It's insanely illogical and I love it.

Kinda slow when it comes to the relationship development. Honestly the ML is a creep. If not for the plot and the MC I would not read it.

The MC is very emotionally stunted unfortunately. This leads to a very predictable but really amusing plot.

I would rate it an 8/ 10. Nice plot but full of holes. The characters are pretty 1d. But the ghosts... more>> are pretty cute <<less

Loving it so far!

Though I feel like there is some complaint to be had from the horror factor, ... more>>
Spoiler

The protagonist is certainly safe from any dangerous encounters, even if he weren't smart and careful, since the ML would just protect him. He already has a couple of times, like when he stopped his writing during the test and prevented him from entering the counseling room and leading him to the toy room, and even going so far as to disclude him from the sorting event. Though protagonists are always safe in stories like this, at least until the end, they at least run the risk of getting injured or losing a loved one. Since all of the people he's grown to care about so far are already dead or just not human, he's pretty much invincible.

[collapse]

we still see things through other people's eyes and get a sense of the horror around him.

Spoiler

The fact that the bigger fella is so terrified of Tan Lin and the first reaction people have about the protagonist playing a game with a ghost speaks volumes about what everyone else is going through.
