The premise is SO interesting and there are some genuine funny moments but a lot of the situations and character reactions seem forced or rushed. I don't know whether the plot is flawed in the OG story or it's the adaptation at fault.
The premise of a horror rom--com where the ML is both the source of horror and the romance sounds sketchy, and it really doesn't work.
Part of horror is building tension, and this part exists and is even quite okay, but then the tension is resolved by the FL doing something completely random and senseless, so the story grounds to a half, sputters helplessly and then just chugs along in a random direction leaving the readers wonder what just happened and why. This flow happens all the time. You feel embarrassed for the FL like you feel for George Costanza, and I'm not against that kind of humor, but it just doesn't gel with horror.
I also just can't root for this ML or the "cute romance".
Minor spoilers :
I love how dark and creepy he is. The storyline with the FL's antics is very funny although sometimes I don't how what she's saying is saving her😅
As of chapter 31, it's enjoyable but slow moving. Waiting for single episodes may become boring, so I'll wait for more to accumulate for now.

Sometimes its really funny; sometimes its really dumb; and sometimes its surprising. The main character gets transmigrated into one of those casual horror games like Pocket Mirror, and is trying to solve a bigger mystery while staying alive. Basically the premise takes the idea of transmigrating into a game, and adds more constraints onto it.
However, the story itself doesnt take itself too seriously & the game system rules are pretty bias and nonstandard. The lead character acts before thinking and somehow is able to wiggle her way through the story. In my opinion, this is very contrary to the game genre its set in, as repeated dying is the most important way of gaining information within these types of games.
Anyway I find it funny and it really feels like the authors & artist play different mobile games from gacha heavy to grinding, all can be mentioned within the story.
