Record of Ghosts (Revised Edition)

The purpose of this book is to collect and record real events. In other words, it's not a collection of fiction, but more like a collection of interviews, with many of the events coming from firsthand sources. If the interviewees aren't mentally disturbed or experiencing hallucinations or self-scare, then most of the ghost encounters recorded in this book are true.

Therefore, this book is called "Ghost Notes." I suggest you don't treat it as a typical ghost story. While typical ghost stories are fictional and often quite strong, this collection isn't scary. Author Wang Xiujie didn't embellish the source material, so you'll experience the most authentic ghost encounters.

These ghosts are real.
