Got Dropped into a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work

This is a very solid novel with well-written characters and a good story.

The premise is interesting, with a blend of ORV, my House of Horrors, and SCP foundation. The horror aspect is certainly inspired and is very similar to SCP foundation, with various types of horror including ghostly horrors, folk/urban legend horror, and lovecraftian-cosmic horror.

The story is well written with quite a fast pace right from the get go, yet doesn't feel exhausting. Translation is very well done, keeping in mind the fact that there are korean references, jokes, and puns sporadically throughout the story.

Character-wise, it is very fresh and interesting, both main characters and side characters. Especially the main character, as most reviews suggest, is very believable, relatable, and unique. Comedy is well-woven into the story and doesn't feel out of place, much like my House of Horrors.

Naturally due to the horror, there are depictions of gore, self-harm, violence, etc. It perfectly compliments the story and isn't gore for gore's sake, though some depictions can be vivid. If LOTM or my House of Horrors were too much for you then I would recommend reading with caution. The author also puts up trigger warning before the chapters so it is very comfortable.

There are hints of psychological conflicts, dilemmas, and deeper psyche the MC has, but I feel it hasn't been explored thoroughly (more evidenced in later chapters). Though I'm sure that it will come as the MC's character is developed even more (not to say that there are no developments at all, there certainly are, and a good amount as well). 

The mystery aspect is slowly unravelling and certainly keeps you hooked however, it is not as pronounced as novels like LOTM or Deep Sea Embers, rightly so as this is mainly a horror action novel.

Overall, I highly recommend this novel, it is indeed a worthwhile read.

It's quite good. the writing is solid, the characters have something to them and they're not just a piece of cardboard, MC is not annoying, even if he is a scaredy cat (he's me frfr), the vibe is good, although it does become less scary as we go, but it doesn't feel wrong for that to happen here. Overall it's a very promising. for me, its a A-tier novel.

A selfless coward, Unique I'd say. Good writing, no cardboard cutouts. The MC is realistic and isn't your average protagonist going around saying "I must be #1!" Tbh this novel should be in the top 40 ranks.

reminds me of entrails new book, horror game dev. Unlike that one though, the mc is isn't a traumatizing 'coward, but a selfless coward. This novel is great, fun read, lots of unique concepts are portrayed great.

Very good, it has a mixture of SCP world building and it is very creative in creating different world building scenarios where the Mc plays a lot of people through misunderstandings. It's very similar to the horror developer novel, I believe this can at least reach top 20. Not very scary, but it could be different to others. However, I can guarantee it'll give some degree of adrenaline rush due to the pacing and suspense. The Mc is pretty funny finding himself in absolute perils, but sticking to his job cause he doesn't wanna be homeless. Bro would be cooked in this world otherwise 💀

Review after Chapter 167.2 or 317 :

Surprisingly a good read . It's funny with great characters and developments , Nice world building . I caught up in one shot - which isn't the case in most novels , even the good ones. So, the immersion is great . The only flaw I'd say is this isn't really much of an horror . The element fear isn't actually present - rather it's a little gore at best I'd say. But this is really enjoyable and deserves higher rank . Many higher ranked novels aren't really good . I'd put this in rank 15-25 .

9/10.

It's fantastic it's certainly different from the first book author wrote (debut or die) but it's very interesting as the horror is well written and the MC is relatable at times. So far I've been caught up and started stacking. I would recommend this to anyone. The way the MC solves things is very interesting as he's trying to act like he's not scared af while escaping scenarios at the same time at great speeds. As the story continues it really makes you think of the world and how it works.

Overall: world building is fantastic, side characters unless they died do appear again, and MC is relatable to a degree. Would reccomend

i definetly need more chapters, i finished it on another website but now i need more, anyway i really like the mc and the story is just as interesting as the premise 

Peak fiction one of the best horror stories I have ever read if u me told once that I would read a horror story I wouldn't believe u but here I am now 

5 stars i dont know how to say what and i'm  trying to make the limit to post ,this a good story for fellow horror readers . And lets try to make this go more in rank
