Record of the Listener is a strange story collection by Hong Mai, Southern Song Dynasty. It's originally compromised of 420 chapters, but today less than a half has survived.

Gods and ghosts, injustice and retribution, fantasy and uncanny have been included in its storylines, which have inspired numerous vernacular stories and Chinese operas. Zhou Mi of the late Song Dynasty criticized the book as "greedy and acquisitive, full of eeriness."
