The dead wreak revenge on the living, paintings come alive,
spectral brides possess mortal men and a priest devours human flesh
in these chilling Japanese ghost stories retold by a master of the
supernatural. Lafcadio Hearn drew on the phantoms and ghouls of
traditional Japanese folklore - including the headless
'rokuro-kubi', the monstrous goblins 'jikininki' or the faceless
'mujina' who stalk lonely neighbourhoods - and infused them with
his own memories of his haunted childhood in nineteenth-century
Ireland to create these terrifying tales of striking and eerie
power. Today they are regarded in Japan as classics in their own
right. Edited with an introduction by Paul Murray
