壁 - Wall

Story translated from Japanese by editor Reki of Yoru Shinbun. These are all original translations from the Japanese source material.

This was an experience from someone I know. He lived alone in an old wooden apartment in Suginami Ward, which was built around 40 years ago. Its probably the same situation as everywhere else where you don’t really talk to your neighbours and your only interaction is when you pass them in the corridor. Seems like most people experience this too. He has been living there for almost half a year and has not even seen the face of his next door neighbour.

One day, he happened to pass his neighbour who asked him,“Hey you, could you please stop scratching the walls in the middle of the night? Its really noisy and we can’t sleep.”

He had no idea what that meant and replied,“I have never done that, in fact I’m asleep at midnight.”

However the neighbour didn’t believe him and threatened him,“The next time you do that, I’m calling the landlord.”

Of course he didn’t understand what the neighbour was talking about and returned to his room. What a troublesome neighbour, I don’t want to get into any more encounters with him.

The next night, he got home exhausted after work and went straight to bed. He was deeply asleep when he was woken up suddenly by a large banging sound. Surprised but still extremely sleepy, “Its the neighbour…. What on earth is he doing in the middle of the night?” he thought as he tried to go back to sleep.

Scritch.

Scritch.

It was the sound of something scratching. (Is it mice?) he wondered as he looked around the room dimly lit by moonlight. He spotted a figure crouched near a wall.

There sat a boy who looked around 5 years old. He was facing the wall towards the neighbour. The boy started scratching the bare walls with his fingers. Scritch… Scritch…

He froze.

What the neighbour said was true!

5-10 minutes passed.

He continued to observe the boy from his bed and eventually summed up his courage to ask the boy, “Boy, what are you doing?”

The boy slowly turned his head towards him.

“My mum is inside here"

Carpark

Story from friend J

Being part of the drama club, every year we have to stay over in school for a training camp. When we are practicing at night in the empty school some of my friends said that they can sometimes see (ghost) kids running around or watching us as we performed. The facilitators sometimes join in our games after practice and we decided to play hide and seek. It was my turn to look for them as everyone went to hide. I saw the facilitator run towards the old carpark building which was in another block. The carpark only had one entrance and exit so I decided to wait at the entrance to try to catch her if she tried to leave. However a long time had passed and I decided to go in to look for her. The carpark was dark and I could see one car parked there. Which was strange because everyone would have already went home for the night and nobody was supposed to be here besides us. As there was nowhere else to look, I went towards the empty car and looked behind it. The facilitator was unconscious on the ground. She was too heavy to carry so I shook her to wake her up. She was in a daze before saying “We have to get out of here now“. We quickly got out and she told me that someone had hit her back really hard and knocked her out. But when I checked there wasn’t anyone there and since there was only one entrance and exit I would have seen them leave. The car was empty as well. There was no other possible explanation.

Black Mist

Story from spookyspaghetti: I was on a road trip with a friend and we eventually ran out of topics to talk about. So I just casually asked: “Have you ever seen a ghost?“ “All the time“ she replied Her answer threw me off guard and I thought she was joking but she suddenly went quiet. We sat in silence for 30 seconds until I gave in to my curiosity and just had to ask her what she meant. “Ghost to some do not always appear clearly or in human form. I see black mist like shadows accompanied by an uncomfortable and uneasy feeling. Sometimes they stick to people and other times they start to follow me if they realise that I am able to see them. This causes nightmares and terrible dreams as well as sleep paralysis. My dad went to the Himalayas to climb Mt Everest. When he came home he was surrounded by black mist as multiple spirits were clinging to him. I didn’t want to enter his room as I get very uneasy. During that time I was studying for my exams and was feeling stressed, the presence of the black mist caused me to fall sick for a few days.” I didn’t really know how to reply to all this and only asked questions like where does she see them or how often she sees them. I asked if the theory of them gathering near water such as toilets and rivers was true. “I don’t know, and I used to see them quite often once a week last time. But now I don’t really see them as often anymore“ We just changed topics after that.

Red Girl Legend of Taiwan Pt 2

Here is where it gets interesting, recently in 2015 an 80 years old grandma went missing in the mountains. She was last sighted by this CCTV leaving a public area and heading into the mountain. She was reported missing for 5 days and 4 nights. After which she miraculously reappeared and rescued. She says that a small girl wearing red and carrying a red umbrella brought her up the mountain and she followed the little girl. When asked why, she did not really know.

A search party of 500 people set out into the mountains to look for the missing granny. She was finally discovered after 5 days in a location high up in the mountains which was considered very difficult for normal people to even trek into. So how did she get there and how did she survive 5 days without any food or water?

She was found mysteriously when a search group passed an overhanging rock and set off some loud fireworks to try to get her attention. After 10 minutes they returned to the rock and found her sitting there. They asked her how she got there and she replied that she was sitting there the entire time.

When she was admitted to the hospital for a check up, they found her to be in good health. The granny said that she stayed under the rock and there were many people there who talked with her and kept her company, at night they would bring her food to eat and water to drink. There was a feast of chicken and many other foods but when the rescuers found her, there was no trace of these other people and food. There was only some half eaten frog’s legs and dirt. The granny had been given frog’s legs and dirt to eat. The little girl and the other people were nowhere to be seen.
