Mc

MC is realistic - greedy, selfish, caring only about his own safety. And yet, he is mentally strong enough to be able to exist in such a nightmare around him (created by ml). He is not a good guy, he will not sacrifice himself in sake of others, he can also have pretty cruel thoughs sometimes. He is bad, but not in romanticized way - and that is something important and unique. You are free to dislike this character, but he is one of my favourites - I feel like I read a story about an actual person, not a flawless godlike creature. Important note : he is not a mad genius too - don't expect him to play mindgames and schemes. But I like it, honestly :)

Ml

He is actually worse than MC. Due to him, a lot of people lost their minds, and some were killed. He will not hesitate to murder someone, too. I don't really see how his deaths were related to MC - in first world, it was just an inconvenience (I believe, mtl'ed this stuff). In second world it was his ex wife who did all the job. So please, don't try to portray ML as an innocent lamb with pure evil MC. They are both unlikable, but at the same time very unusual and interesting. Can't wait to read more about them

Their relationship

As someone stated in reviews, it sometimes looks like a Stockholm Syndrome, but at the same time it doesn't. Let's just say, that would be hard to find them a better partner, and they may be happy in their special way. I like that too

I said bloody 'cause some of it is just ML killing other people 'cause he thinks that the other makes MC's afraid, angry, or etc. ML is always dying and become ghost and then sticks around MC, well.. It's urban legend afterall. Throughout reading this, I keep thinking whether or not MC's action is because of stockholm syndrome, but lol I just don't know anymore. I like that MC's becoming more and more possessive toward ML. I enjoyed reading this (｡>﹏<｡) /

There's a lover who died in the attic

My wife became a man

A baby who grows up to look exactly like her husband

MC also becomes quite possessive towards the ML (only at the end of every (some) arcs).

Sudden chills like I was in a horror movie because I didn't expect it, since this is not much of a scary plot.

Exactly what I want, it is short, doesn't require to use too much of my big brain power (because all my braincells are drained from school work), gore, obsessive thoughts and a sprinkle of horror.
