Since time immemorial, stories about spirits, ghosts, paranormal and mysterious phenomena have been the main theme of folklore in different countries. Japan is no exception, and its unique location has fostered a blending of Asian cultures, which in turn has given rise to a rich legacy of superstition and tradition. Kathrien Ross collected information from all over Japan to write this book about ghosts and other supernatural phenomena. She had to visit the most terrible places. For example, the grave of a beautiful girl who was treacherously killed; sacred mountain Osore - the gateway to communication with the dead. In the book, written based on materials collected during his travels, the author talks about paranormal phenomena in Japan, where there is a world of the blind, women shamans, trees on which human hair grows, weeping stones and even a grave where, according to legend, Jesus is buried. “Supernatural and Mystical Japan” introduces readers not only to ancient mysterious stories and legends, but also to some features of Japanese culture and thinking. This book will bring great pleasure to anyone who loves Japan and is interested in supernatural phenomena.
