Synopsis
‘Anyhow … I think I transmigrated into a romance fantasy novel.’
The problem is—I opened my eyes in a wake room. Inside a coffin. At the funeral of this body’s owner. To make matters worse, I had read so many novels that I couldn’t remember which one I was in.
‘Ta-da~ you thought I was dead, right? I was not!’
On the other hand, I think I’m a villainess. My family is cold-hearted, and the servants shrink away and shun me, often crying while looking at the air next to me. But it doesn’t matter! I’ll exploit my role in this romance fantasy to shed my villainess label!
But then, I noticed a strange pattern.
“What exactly is this?”
[How to summon •••]
‘Is it a summoning formation to call spirits or dragons? That’s good. A villainess needs at least one ability to protect herself.’
“Meow~”
‘But why was I chosen by a three-eyed leopard-patterned cheese cat, rather than spirits or dragons? Well, it doesn’t matter because it’s cute!’
There’s a monster living in Count Rohanson’s household. A creature lurking beneath the skin of the late Lady Evangeline.
“I’m Gabriel, commander of Paralos Knights. I’d like to know more about young lady Rohanson.”
‘Knight Commander, pitch-black hair, azure eyes … Gabriel must be the male lead!’
“How foolish. You don’t even know your place. I’m not interested in you.”
“It doesn’t matter. I’m just curious about you.”
‘How come? Aren’t I the villainess? Go find your partner, the female lead!’
My aim is to use my summoning circle to protect myself! I’ll also look after Pudding the cat and Jelly the werewolf.
“By the way … why does everyone keep trembling whenever they see me?”
A story about a heroine who believes she’s in a romance fantasy novel and the unsettling events that happen to those around her.
🕯️ System Interface: The “Eldritch Delusion” Protocol
My Possession Became a Ghost Story is a genre-defying Korean novel that masterfully subverts the “Romance Fantasy” (RoFan) trope. The protagonist, believing she has transmigrated into a cliché otome novel as a villainess, wakes up inside a coffin during her own funeral.
The core of the story is a narrative duality: through the MC’s eyes, it is a lighthearted comedy about a “reforming villainess” making friends and collecting cute pets. Through everyone else’s eyes, it is a Lovecraftian horror story about an ancient, nameless cosmic entity that has hijacked a human corpse and is slowly unraveling the sanity of the world.
| Component | Classification | Tactical Implication |
| Perspective Duality | Narrative Engine | The “Pink Tinted” MC POV vs. the “Grey/Gory” Outsider POV creates constant dramatic irony. |
| Unconscious Horror | MC Power | The MC thinks she is “acting cold”; in reality, she emits an aura of death that makes people’s skin crawl and shadows move. |
| Eldritch Summoning | Progression | Her “cute pets” (Pudding the cat, etc.) are actually high-ranking demons/monsters that the world views as harbingers of the apocalypse. |
| The “ML” Obsession | Romance Subversion | Gabriel, the Knight Commander, is not “falling in love” in a healthy way; he is being “bewitched” and “enchanted” by a being he fears. |
