Mansion of Dolls (Complete) by TarynneBourret

Taryn Lowell has been dealing with one horrible thing after another while still coping with the sudden death of her brother. Yet when an invitation to go to Tokyo, Japan is offered to her by her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend no less, Taryn couldn't help but wonder why and cautiously excepted. Thinking that it would be good to get her mind off things for a while. That it would be an experience, she would never forget. While the latter half of this trip is staying at a historic mansion in a remote village, one almost completely cut off from the rest of the world. However, within this rural village, there are several old stories passed off as legends or rumours. The story of a Priestess who sacrificed herself to many demons protecting her village by binding herself in ropes soaked in her blood. While rumours of a demon that is said to resemble a man or a woman who will whisk unsuspecting travellers away in the dead of night if they wander into the forest, all while looking like a living doll... Such stories and rumours are often truths distorted through countless years being passed from word of mouth, yet how much remains true while the rest becomes fiction? Or were such things even fiction to begin with?

Park Jimin is a foreign student at Bismuth Royal Academy, a luxurious boarding school in the Southern European country of Crete. Originally from Korea, his jet-black hair and dark brown eyes cause his peers to shun him and give him the nickname "Black Reaper," based on a popular urban legend about the traveler who brings death in the spring. On a day like any other, Jimin visits the school's extravagant library in search of ghost stories. However, his focus soon changes as he becomes curious about a golden strand of hair on the stairs. The steps lead him to a large garden and a beautiful doll-like boy known as Min Yoongi, whose complex and imaginative foresight allows him to predict their futures, now intertwined. With more mysteries quickly developing-including the appearance of a ghost ship and an alchemist with the power of transmutation-Yoongi and Jimin, bound by fate and their unique skills, have no choice but to rely on each other.

SIRAYA by BungaMawar0210

Mika, a determined final-year student at Bukit Palong University, embarks on her most ambitious project yet-a field study in an isolated village shrouded in mystery and untouched by modern civilization. The journey itself is a test of endurance, requiring Mika to navigate treacherous terrain and endure multiple rides on rickety public transport, each taking her deeper into the heart of the unknown. This secluded village is steeped in ancient lore, its people bound by a fervent belief in a deity said to grant immortality, unparalleled prosperity, and eternal tranquility to its faithful. But beneath the veneer of devotion lies a chilling, unspoken truth-a web of secrets that guards the village's darkest curse. As Mika begins to unravel the traditions and rituals of the villagers, she feels the weight of unseen eyes watching her every move. Whispers of an ancient pact, cryptic warnings from frightened villagers, and eerie phenomena lead Mika to suspect that the idyllic facade hides something sinister. The deeper she delves, the closer she comes to uncovering a horrifying truth that puts her life in peril. Trapped in a place where tradition overrides reason, Mika must rely on her wits and courage to outsmart the malevolent forces at play. Can she escape the grip of the village's curse before it consumes her? Or will she become another lost soul in its eternal cycle of terror? This is not just a journey of discovery-it's a fight for survival in the face of an ancient darkness.
