At 10:40 AM on December 31, 2000, a woman named Haruko walked into her daughter’s family home in the Kamisoshigaya neighborhood of Setagaya, in the suburbs of Tokyo. She had become worried about her family when she attempted to call her daughter and the call had not gone through. While it wasn’t necessarily alarming that the family may have missed one call, Haruko became more worried when they continued not to answer, especially since it was a holiday and she assumed the children would have woken their parents up by now. When she got to the home, there was no answer from the doorbell, so she used her spare key to make her way inside.
