Lovers in the Coffin
By: Suzainie

Title
The title is great, and there is an air of mystery when you read it. I think it's pretty catchy as well.

Blurb

Since this is a paranormal story,  I was quiet expecting to feel some mysterious vibes while reading the blurb

This way of describing is commonly used in the comedy genre.

There are actually a number of words that you can use to make your description of Felix, look more appropriate to the genre that you are writing. Also, when I read your blurb I also checked the tags of this story. As I've observed, the tags were really dark. But there's nothing wrong with the tags, it's just that, the blurb did not match the darkness and mystery emitted by the tags.

Prologue

The prologue was somehow interesting. You had an okay start, although it needs a slight improvement, but it's a little bit nice. However when I arrived here:

I feel like things are too fast

I feel like things are too fast. How the coffin was described is not done that well. I think you can say more things, and decribe it until an image of a coffin emerge in the minds of the readers, without you literally saying that it was a coffin, this early. The reaction of the miners is also missing a lot. Natigilan sila, okay. What else?
