Kowabana: 'True' Japanese scary stories from around the internet: Volume Thirteen

by Tara A. Devlin

Never-ending horrors…

A long abandoned temple that perhaps isn’t as abandoned as it looks. What monstrous being lurks on these former sacred grounds?

A computer app trained to judge how much longer someone has left to live. Can it truly be accurate, and if so, why is it spitting out the number “0”?

A cheap apartment that comes with one single condition. Don’t go outside at night. What’s actually lurking out there, and why?

From terrifying curses to abandoned shrines, frightful ghouls to vengeful spirits, cursed items to powerful gods, the Kowabana series is dedicated to bringing you the best horror, thriller, suspense, and supernatural stories you’ve never seen before.

[Glen · Rating 3 out of 5]

Another collection of scary tales from Japan. Some of the earlier books are scarier, but still well worth reading.
