Hello everyone!
I know that this month has been making everyone pretty anxious with everything that's going on.
This is really the first time I'm experiencing the brunt of all of this, so it's been a... let's say, learning experience!
I've been trying to think of a way to get my mind off of all of this, so can I ask a favor of you?

Can you please tell me some of your favorite scary stories? I want to hear your best! （*/∇＼*）

How horrible! What happened next? How did the wife react? Why was she mad about the brush?

idk i think the brush is like some ancient chinese superstition? i never asked about it.

but anyway, the servants came when they heard the wife scream,but it was too late, wang was already dead. the next morning, she and wang's brother went to go see the priest. the priest came to the home and went "well, that demon is gone,
but she's not far. she's just at his house." pointing at wang's brother

wang's bro was scared and ran to his home, because he hadn't been home all day.
he went home and found out something...

his wife hired a new maid that day.

Oh no!
Poor Wang's brother. What an unlucky family.

I'll give this one an 8.

yeah there's more that happens after that

but i sort of forgot

honestly, everytime i heard this story as a kid i fell asleep around this part

Hmm, when you're a child you usually just want to skip ahead to the good part, so the longer tales do tend to get boring.

[ mimori you're a child ]

I think that's a decent enough endpoint though.

yeah right? why not just end it with wang getting his heart eaten??

but i got more chinese ghost stories if you wanna hear them!

I definitely do!

Please, tell me the next one.

okay two words for you

chinese vampire

................ Go on.

alright so they're called jiangshi. they've got rotten flesh, like they've been dead for a long time. they've been dead for so long that their knees don't even bend anymore, so they gotta hop to move around
