**Chen Ge** is the main protagonist of My House of Horrors. He became the owner of his Haunted House after his parent's disappearance. At the point where his Haunted House was going to have to close due to lack of customers, Chen Ge discovered a mysterious Black Phone in the attic of the building, left by his parents. The phone provided game-like system involving daily missions with rewards and other features that helped Chen Ge improve his Haunted House and gain an army of Specters.

## Appearance

He often carries his backpack and wears casual clothes. He is described to be average looking, but very charismatic.

## Personality

Chen Ge's personality is a cool and calm persona due to growing up in a haunted house and interacting with props since young. Because of this, he has a high threshold for fear and is also great at putting on a warm smile even in the harshest of environments while being a quick thinker.

He saves those who need saving and is capable of abandoning those who he deems unfit for society, he is seen as insane and mentally ill due to the mysteries that surround his childhood.

Although he thinks of himself as a "kind" person, his methods of getting information often involve intimidation and coercion. He can be extremely manipulative as multiple characters have drawn parallels between Chen Ge and madmen.

## History

When he was born, perhaps due to the mad experiments on his father by the Hospital Director, perhaps due to his bloodline, he could naturally see ghosts and slip into the Red World. He was repeatedly killed by the Hospital Director in mad experiments to split him, reviving each dawn, and later tricked into binding his altruistic side into the Red City to protect it. The hospital director then stole away parts of Chen Ge's flesh and organs and used it to build the Cursed Hospital, and Chen Ge's father took away the rest of him to reconstruct.

He grew up in Eastern Jiujiang before an accident occurred when his shadow started to change (hinted to be after an altercation with the Cursed Hospital). His parents (Chen Xiao and Xu Meng) moved to Western Jiujiang after he was 6 years old, which by then, he had forgotten what had happened to him in Eastern Jiujiang.

At some point, he went to college and studied Toy Design.

It was hinted by Doctor Gao that Chen Ge was the door-pusher for the door at the Haunted House and that Chen Ge's true personality is separated into different personas (akin to Men Nan's situation).
