À propos de cette écoute
Japanese folklore is abundant with tales of ghostly creatures and the supernatural. In Haunted Japan, author Catrien Ross reveals the legends that have been passed down for generations and continue to terrify us today. To research this book on the country's ghosts, demons, and paranormal phenomena, Ross collected accounts from across Japan including:
- Sacred Mount Osore, a Japanese gateway to the land of the dead, where people gather to contact those who have passed on
- The Tokyo grave of the samurai Taira no Masakado, where passersby regularly witnessed his ghost until prayers finally laid him to rest
- The mummified remains of the monk Tetsumonkai at the Churenji Temple on Mount Yudono - a place where bizarre happenings are common
- The ruins of Hachioji Castle in Tokyo, which was abandoned for many years because of its many hauntings
The result is an unparalleled insight into the dark corners of the Japanese psyche - a world filled with horrifying creatures including Oni (demons with fierce and ghastly appearances), Yurei (Japanese ghosts who inhabit the world of the living), and Yokai (supernatural monsters).
