"The House That Remembered"

Chapter 1: The Inherited Nightmare

Architect Xu Ming inherited her family's ancestral home with one condition: she must live there for 30 nights to claim it.

On the first night, the house showed its true nature:

Family portraits changed expressions when unobserved

The west wing reconstructed itself overnight to match 1898 blueprints

A child's laughter came from the boarded-up nursery... though no child had lived there since the massacre of 1903

The caretaker handed Xu Ming a warning with shaking hands:

"The house remembers its dead. Don't let it remember you."

Chapter 2: The First Memory

Xu Ming woke to find her hands stained with antique ink, a detailed confession to a 120-year-old murder written in her handwriting. The victim's name matched a name scratched into the nursery wall.

That evening, she found fresh blood dripping from the ceiling—directly below where historical records showed a body had been hidden in the attic.
