I haven't finished the whole thing yet, but from what I've read, the setup is that the protagonist ends up sharing a body with a powerful, ancient entity after a weird accident. It's not your typical hostile possession; they're stuck together and have to negotiate everything. The plot really revolves around this forced cohabitation—using the entity's abilities to solve problems or get out of jams, but also dealing with the fallout and the entity's own mysterious agenda.
What I find interesting is how the story uses this to explore identity. Is the protagonist still themselves if someone else is literally in their head making suggestions? The external conflict often comes from other groups who sense the entity's power and want to either harness or destroy it, which forces this odd couple to work together. The dynamic reminds me a bit of a buddy cop movie, but with way higher stakes and more existential dread.
The pacing can be a bit slow in the middle as it digs into the psychological stuff, but the last arc I read really picked up when the entity's past started catching up to them. The ending I heard about involves a big choice about separation or permanent merger, but I'm avoiding full spoilers until I catch up.

Honestly, I was a bit disappointed. The summary makes it sound like a wild ride of supernatural conflict, but a huge chunk of the story is just the main character and the spirit arguing internally while doing fairly mundane tasks. The 'main plot' feels secondary to their bickering. It picks up when outside forces attack, but those moments are spaced out.
I kept waiting for a larger conspiracy or a grand enemy to appear, and it sort of does by the end, but the resolution felt rushed. The core idea is strong, but the execution made the central story—figuring out why the possession happened and how to resolve it—seem like an afterthought compared to the slice-of-life moments. If you're into character studies over plot, you might like it more than I did.

Trisha is being haunted by her pasts she wanted to forget. They keep coming back and she knows she needed to face them in order to move on. But what if one of it makes her tremble with fear while the other one was with a mix of desire? Can she really escape them? What she doesn't know is that one is willing to protect her no matter what, even binding and branding her with the devil's possession to do so.
Synopsis:
In the world of the ultra-elite, power is the only currency, and Dante Moretti is the man who owns the mint. For three years, the ruthless billionaire has watched Ivy St. Claire from the shadows, curating a digital and physical gallery of her life. He didn't just want her; he wanted to destroy the legacy of her father, a man who framed Dante’s family decades ago. When the St. Claire empire teeters on the edge of a $50 million ruin, Dante finally steps into the light, offering Ivy a deal that is nothing short of a soul-binding contract: her freedom for her father’s life.
Ivy is thrust into the "Golden Cage" of Dante’s cliffside estate, a gothic masterpiece where every room is a reminder of his obsession. But the luxury is a mask for a terrifying reality. Dante is a man of "Red Flags," a possessive monster who treats Ivy as a living interest on a blood debt. The deeper she sinks into his world, the more she realizes his love is a poisonous blend of desire and vengeance. He isolates her, manipulates her emotions, and threatens everyone she loves to ensure she never takes a step beyond his reach.
The stakes escalate when Ivy discovers the mansion’s darkest secret: Dante’s mother, Isabella, is alive and rotting in a hidden cellar, driven mad by years of captivity. Ivy finds herself trapped between two generations of madness, holding a mysterious key left by her father that unlocks a truth even more dangerous than Dante’s obsession. As the lines between hatred and a dark, Stockholm-style attraction begin to blur, Ivy must decide if she will find a way to break the Moretti curse or if she will succumb to being his most "Poisonous Possession" forever.

I read 'I Think I've Been Possessed Somewhere' a few months back, and that ending really threw me for a loop. It builds up this creepy, almost psychological horror vibe where you're never quite sure if the main character is genuinely haunted or just having a total breakdown.
The climax pulls the rug out in a way I genuinely didn't expect, reframing everything you thought you knew about the earlier chapters. The 'possession' gets a completely different, much more grounded explanation that actually made me go back and skim the first half to see all the clues I missed. It’s clever, but I've seen some people on forums call it a cop-out, saying it deflates the supernatural tension. I thought it was a satisfying, if chilling, twist.
Made the whole read feel a lot sadder and more real than I was prepared for, honestly.
Look, I was totally thrown by that ending. If you haven't finished the book, maybe click away now. Okay? The core is really four people. There's 'me'—the narrator, I forgot the name already, that bland guy who moves into the old apartment. He's just a vessel for the story to happen to. The real focus is Li Xiaoran, this eerie, beautiful woman from the past he finds traces of in the apartment. She's the 'somewhere' he's been possessed to, and honestly, her tragic backstory is the most memorable part.
Then there's the current landlord, Old Wang, who seems helpful but obviously knows way more than he lets on. He drops these cryptic hints that make you squirm. And finally, the 'thing' in the apartment itself, which is practically a character. It's less a demon and more like a trapped echo of memory. The book spends more time on the atmosphere and the slow-burn dread between the narrator and the ghost of Li Xiaoran than on jump scares. I kept wishing the narrator had more spine, though—he’s very passive, just observing his own possession.
Searched high and low for it myself a few months back. There's no official English translation out there yet, which is a real shame because the premise sounds wild—office worker gets taken over by a ghost, right? I ended up reading fan-translated snippets on a few aggregate sites, but they were pretty rough and only covered the first dozen chapters. The updates just stopped.
Your best shot right now is the original Korean platform, but you'd need to navigate that. I heard rumors it might get picked up by a bigger publisher if the webtoon adaptation does well, but that's pure speculation. For now, it's one of those titles stuck in limbo for international readers. I keep checking NovelUpdates every so often, hoping someone picks it up.
The manga 'Possessions' by Mizuki Tsujimura is this hauntingly beautiful story that blends psychological depth with supernatural elements. It follows a young woman named Nao who inherits an old apartment building from her grandmother. At first, it seems like a stroke of luck, but she soon discovers that each room is 'occupied' by the lingering regrets of former tenants—ghosts tied to unresolved emotions. The plot unfolds as Nao, with her own emotional baggage, tries to help these spirits move on, uncovering their tragic pasts in the process. The way Tsujimura weaves each ghost's story into Nao's personal growth is masterful; it's less about scares and more about the weight of human connection.
What really stuck with me was how the apartment building becomes a metaphor for memory itself—rooms filled with things we can't let go of. The art style shifts subtly during ghostly encounters, adding layers of unease without relying on cheap jumps. By the end, Nao's journey mirrors the readers' own questions about holding on and letting go. It’s one of those stories that lingers, like the spirits in its pages.
