Features: The "Scaredy-Cat" series of Chinese and Foreign Horror, recently launched by Chang'an Publishing House, includes: "Black Jokes," "Love, Don't Bloom," and "Zhou Dedong's Personal Horror Stories," which are the latest works by Zhou Dedong following his previous horror series like 773. In these three novels, Zhou Dedong pays special attention to the "de-terrorization" of horror fiction—exploring themes of love, hate, and emotional conflicts; the hardships of displacement; and the "horror" that can arise at any moment between family, friends, and colleagues. The narrative touches on the rich and varied "special human survival states" and the "fractures" of real life, attempting to make readers, after experiencing the suspense and mystery that brings tension, gradually see the weaknesses of human nature and the dark side of society. "Love, Don't Bloom" carefully pries open a gap between the red and green of love, allowing you to see some frightening things. The source of horror is hatred; the hatred that grows from the soil of love is more intense than love itself. Thus, horror emerges, giving you a feeling as if you've been shocked in the midst of ordinary life, recharging your weary heart once again.
