"The Big Locust Tree" is a modern Chinese horror suspense novel set in the Nanping No. 85 teachers' dormitory building, constructed in the 1950s. The story revolves around the cursed Room 203, which has remained uninhabitable since the mid-1960s. The room's original occupant was Zheng Zuowei, a biology teacher at the Teachers' College who, during the Cultural Revolution, was persecuted for his landlord background and had his left eye gouged out by Red Guards. In desperation, he poisoned his entire family of four with arsenic, after which Room 203 became a haunted dwelling plagued by mysterious incidents.
