Discussion Guidelines

• Please blur/hide any major events in the current week’s pages (however early they occur), like so:

• (that’s [spoiler]text here[/spoiler]).

• If you have a question about grammar, vocab, the story, cultural things or anything else related to the book — ask! There’s no need to be shy. If it’s something you are wondering about, chances are someone else will be thankful you asked first, lots of people enjoy answering questions, you learn something new, and the thread gets more lively. It’s a win-win on all fronts!

Participation Poll

• I’m reading at my own pace

肝試し

I felt like this story was a bit short and didn’t really go into the concept of 肝試し, which is basically ‘testing courage’ by going to somewhere creepy like an old abandoned building (which they do, but most of the story is just running away through the woods). However, if you’re looking for a more difficult ghostly read, the first 心霊探偵八雲 story also features 肝試し!

呪いのDVD

Felt like it would probably be creepier to watch these videos than to read about them! It was kind of creepy when the narrator turned out to be in all the videos, but then it was also like, oh and there’s a scary long hair white dress woman behind him too! Come on, the scary long hair woman is in every story, get some different content

呪いのDVD was the first story to give me the heebie-jeebies.
