Faceless creatures haunt an unwary traveler. A beautiful woman - the personification of winter at its cruelest - ruthlessly kills unsuspecting mortals. These and 17 other chilling supernatural tales - based on legends, myths, and beliefs of ancient Japan - represent the very best of Lafcadio Hearn's literary style. They are also a culmination of his lifelong interest in the endlessly fascinating customs and tales of the country where he spent the last fourteen-years of his life, translating into English the atmospheric stories he so avidly collected Teeming with undead samurais, man-eating goblins, and other terrifying demons, these 20 classic ghost stories inspired the Oscar®-nominated 1964 film of the same name.
