What if running a haunted house wasn’t just for thrills… but a matter of life, death, and ghosts on payroll?
Ever since he was a kid, Chen Fan’s life has revolved around ghosts—not the real ones (yet), but the ones inside his family’s run-down haunted house attraction. That is, until his parents vanished under mysterious circumstances, leaving behind only memories… and a business on the brink of bankruptcy.
Now, with zero customers, mounting debts, and actors quitting faster than zombies in a bad B-movie, Chen Fan is ready to close up shop for good. The haunted house is crumbling, the horror props are laughably fake, and the scariest thing he’s facing is the landlord’s eviction notice.
But fate—or something far stranger—has other plans.
While cleaning out the dusty attic, Chen Fan stumbles upon a wooden box containing two forgotten relics: a ragged cloth doll he made as a child… and a pitch-black smartphone he’s never seen before. The phone suddenly lights up, revealing a single mysterious app with one cryptic message:
“Do you believe in ghosts?”
A single tap, and his world changes forever.
Chen Fan has unknowingly activated the Haunted House System, an eerie management tool that makes his childhood attraction horrifyingly real. Complete daily horror missions, and he can earn rewards, unlock terrifying new attractions, and even recruit actual ghosts, spirits, and monsters as staff members. Every scream from a visitor builds “Fear Points”—a resource he can spend on bizarre upgrades, supernatural items, and otherworldly roulette spins that grant either blessings… or curses.
There’s just one catch:
This isn’t just a game.
The ghosts are real. The dangers are real.
And someone—or something—wants him to keep the haunted house open at all costs.
As Chen Fan dives deeper into this chilling new reality, he starts to uncover clues about his parents’ disappearance, a forgotten supernatural pact, and a far bigger secret lurking beneath the theme park grounds. The line between performance and possession starts to blur, and Chen Fan must decide what kind of master he’s willing to become—an entertainer of the eerie, or the keeper of something far more sinister.
But hey, at least business is finally booming. Screams are up. Reviews are five stars.
And no one’s noticed the occasional visitor who never leaves…
