Japanese Urban Legends — The Midnight Compendium (Digital Book · PDF)

Japan does not bury its ghosts. It names them.

Twenty-eight of those names are collected here: the legends nobody sells to tourists, the places people still refuse to visit after dark, and the human beings whose crimes slowly hardened into ghost stories.

Ten urban legends. Ten cursed places. Eight true cases.

And beneath every one of them, the section that makes this book different: The Truth Behind the Fear — the documented history the legend was invented to cover.

• 107-page illustrated digital book (PDF, 6×9")
• 28 stories across three chapters, each with full-page dark artwork
• Every story paired with its verified true history
