Recommend me a book with folkloric horror themes preferably set in Asia.

PLS READ BELOW FOR MORE CONTEXT ON WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR🙏🏻

To be fair, I am actually looking for a book similar to the kdrama Revenant.

Without spoiling the show too much, what I really liked was how it explored folkloric myths, rituals and traditional beliefs by building a tense mystery around a series of murders. The characters were constantly racing against time, trying to figure out how to stop the ghost before more people die.

A big part of the appeal for me was the investigation aspect like going through old stories, hidden histories, specific rituals and a lot of trial and error to understand why the spirit is haunting them in the first place and how they can finally put an end to it.

So I’m basically looking for books with that same mix of folklore, supernatural mystery, urgency, rituals and uncovering the truth behind a haunting.

I tried to keep the story as vague as possible to not spoil anything about the show. But yes, pls pls recommend any book with something similar to this.

I came across someone asking about BRAUN's facial remover. It's been in my wishlist for sometime but it's very expensive. I saw this one from VIFERA and it's cheaper, like way cheaper than Braun. It retails for ₹270 and has good reviews and ratings but I'm still skeptical. Has anyone tried this one?

I don’t know when I became this person. I used to have so many dreams and things I wanted but now I don’t feel any of that anymore. I feel suffocated, yet completely numb at the same time. When I hear taunts, it feels like I am being stabbed over and over and its as if something is lodged in my throat to stop me from saying anything.

I finished my degree almost a year ago but I haven’t applied anywhere. I’m too scared, scared that I’m not good enough, that I’m unprepared, that I’ll perform so badly they will reject me immediately. The fear gets so intense that I have anxiety attacks. I cry because I’m not the best.

I always thought I wouldn’t even be alive at this age. My parents and people around them seem disappointed in me and it feels like they are making fun of me. I keep telling myself I’ll start preparing soon but the truth is I don’t even feel like doing anything. I don’t want anything. I don’t even feel like existing.

This year, my suicidal thoughts went beyond anything I imagined, though even that scares me. I was never like this I used to want to be better, I loved learning. But now I’m so exhausted that even thinking about doing something for myself feels impossible.

I have pushed all my friends away because I can’t handle anything more. I had an argument with my friend regarding something else and I was hoping it would blow up so that I can cut myself off from them so that I can not deal with them too. I feel ashamed, anxious and stupid. I have no idea what I’m doing with my life or why I'm doing this to myself. I tell myself what's the point of living. I wish I could soomehow transform my life, I get so scared even before I start anything because I immediately think I’ll never achieve anything so what’s the point? There are people who are a 100 times better than me. Even when I try to begin something, like studying, I end up with intense headaches and my heart starts racing as I keep thinking about how far behind I am in life. Every day feels the same and the only constant is wishing I don’t wake up, both before I sleep and after I do.
