The Byodo - in Temple in Uji is another place with a spooky story. Legend has it that at certain times of the night, a strange mist appears around the temple. People claim to have seen the silhouettes of monks who are no longer alive walking around the temple grounds. It is said that the temple was built on an ancient burial site, and these apparitions could be the spirits of those long - buried.
Sure. There's the Himeji Castle. It is said to be haunted by the spirit of a young woman. Some visitors have reported seeing a figure in a white kimono in the corridors or near the towers. It's thought that she was a servant who died in the castle under mysterious circumstances, and her spirit has remained there ever since.
Sure. There was a player who got a really old, rusty vehicle in BeamNG. As soon as they started driving it, the radio would turn on by itself and play some really distorted music. The car's dashboard lights would flicker randomly, and sometimes the steering wheel would turn on its own, as if some unseen force was trying to take control.
Sure. There was this old, dilapidated hospital. People said it was haunted. A journalist decided to explore it one night. As she walked through the dark corridors, she heard the sound of a gurney rolling. But there was no one there. Then, she saw a faint figure in a nurse's uniform. She felt a chill run down her spine and ran out of there as fast as she could.
There's an old, abandoned hotel on the outskirts of town. It was once a grand place. I went inside. The lobby was filled with dust and broken furniture. I climbed the stairs. On the third floor, I heard a piano playing a sad tune. I followed the sound to a ballroom. The chandeliers swayed violently. A woman in a white dress danced alone. When she saw me, she hissed. Her eyes were black. She glided towards me, and I could feel the evil emanating from her as I backed away in horror.
Sure. There was a keyboard that was said to be haunted. Whenever someone would type on it, strange characters would appear instead of the ones they intended. For example, if they typed 'hello', it would come out as 'h3ll0' with a creepy symbol. And sometimes, the keys would press down on their own, typing out random words that made no sense at first but seemed to form a menacing message when read carefully.
Sure. The Myrtles Plantation in Louisiana is said to be haunted. It has a long history of ghostly sightings. There are reports of a slave girl who was killed on the property. People claim to see her apparition wandering around the plantation. There are also stories of strange handprints appearing on mirrors and unexplained cold drafts.
Sure. One common Japanese horror story is about the vengeful spirit of a wronged woman. For example, Okiku's story. She was a maid who was wronged and thrown into a well. Her spirit is said to haunt the place, counting plates with a spooky voice. Another could be the story of the Teke - Teke, a female spirit whose legs were cut off. She drags herself around making a scraping sound. It's really terrifying.
One famous Japanese horror story is about the 'Aka Manto' or 'Red Cape'. Legend has it that in public school bathrooms, a figure in a red cape would appear. If you were in a stall and he asked if you wanted red paper or blue paper. If you chose red, he would cut you up until you were covered in blood (like red paper). If you chose blue, he would strangle you until you turned blue.
I'm not sure if there's a real - life 'Chucky' story directly related to a haunted house. But it's possible that in a haunted house, there could be a doll like Chucky that adds to the spooky atmosphere. Maybe someone moving into an old, supposedly haunted house finds a creepy doll similar to Chucky in the attic, and that just amps up the fear factor, even if there's no real 'possession' going on.
Sure. There's a story about an old mansion. People who pass by at night often claim to see a figure in white floating near the attic window. It's said that a young woman died tragically in that house many years ago, and her spirit has been lingering ever since.
Sure. There was an old Victorian house on the outskirts of town. People said strange noises came from it at night. One family moved in, and soon they started seeing shadowy figures. The doors would open and close by themselves. They heard whispers that seemed to be right next to their ears, but no one was there. Eventually, they got so scared that they moved out within a month.
