#44 Japanese Ryokan makes me scared (2 scary stories included)
Do you like Ryokan (旅館), a traditional Japanese inn?
Often nestled in nature locations like near hot spring towns or mountain villages, steeped in history, offering a slice of old Japan with their tatami mat rooms, futon bedding, and exquisitely prepared meals. And, of course, never miss the chance to soak in onsen baths.
But when it comes to Japanese horror scenes, Ryokan is not always a happy place. You know, they are often haunted, or you are seeing a Yurei, Japanese ghost in there. Stuff like that.
In this video, I will share 2 scary stories about Japanese ryokan. Between the stories, I will have a short break to analyse the stories and share some theories, so I hope you will enjoy that part as well.
