“Record of A Gabby Ghost 娓鬼錄” is an ongoing series of articles on Ming and Qing ghost stories that I write in Chinese, to be published on my personal academic Wechat official account. This is a creative outlet for me to generate ideas, gather thoughts, and generally talk about my research topics to my friends and myself in an intuitive, non-serious manner. I copied a few articles to be posted here, some of which are in collaboration with the Wechat official account “Society of History Studies 歷史研習社,” where they enjoy a much larger audience.
