Rather than exploring another spooky town or demonic possession, in this episode we explore the world of urban legends. Specifically, urban legends from Japan. Urban legends tell us a lot about society. They might serve as a cautionary tale, or be a reflection of common fears. And in this episode we take a closer look at some of those fears. In this episode we covered the following legends:
- Sukima-onna, the girl in the gap
- Kuchisake-onna, the slit-mouthed woman
- Darumasan Ga Koronda, the game
- Toire no Hanako-san
- Aka Manto, Red Cloak
- Tenome
- The Snake Women and Ushi Oni
- The Red Room Curse
- Gashadokuro
- Tek Tek
We will be taking a brief break for June and July of 2024. We hope to resume with our regular program in August of 2024. Thank you for your patience and check out our previous episodes!
