About Talecrypt

Talecrypt is a digital library of classical Chinese supernatural tales — translated, illustrated, and presented in a format made for modern readers.

We draw from public domain classics like Liaozhai Zhiyi (Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio) by Pu Songling, Yuewei Caotang Biji by Ji Yun, and Zibuyu by Yuan Mei. These 300-year-old ghost stories, fox spirits, and supernatural mysteries were once hidden behind the Chinese language barrier. We bring them to English readers worldwide.

Every tale is hand-translated and illustrated. New stories are added every week.
