Crossing the Yin
Have you ever heard of Crossing the Yin?
They say that when a woman undergoes Crossing the Yin, half her body has already stepped into the Yin Realm.
She has to stay in the same room as a dozen burly men, all night long, until dawn.
Only then can she snatch her life back from the hands of the Yin beings.
I had always scoffed at rumors like that.
Until one day, my beloved little niece underwent Crossing the Yin too.
But she was only six years old!
The Kiln
In our village, there was an abandoned Brick Kiln rumored to be haunted.
During my first year of middle school, a few classmates and I went to the kiln for an adventure. We unexpectedly stumbled upon a swarm of rats worshipping a wall, all of them throwing themselves against it until they died…
In that moment, I realized there was truly something in that kiln that shouldn’t be provoked.
Unfortunately, it was already too late. From then on, my friends began to die one after another.
Until one night, that thing finally stood at the head of my bed…
