Japanese Legends and Scary Tales. Collectible Illustrated Edition

"Sometimes the soul of the deceased clings to the living, like a greedy demon."
Mystical Japan – a land steeped in fear and reverence for the unknown, where the boundaries between the world of the living and the realm of spirits fade into the mists of the ages, where every stone, every tree holds the whisper of old gods and chilling legends.
Here, vengeful onryō do not simply scare, but also take brutal revenge on those who dare to disturb them. Angry kami, Japanese gods, know no mercy. Cunning tanuki and devious fox shapeshifters lead mortals astray, while countless yōkai lurk in the shadows.
Even today, in the flickering lights of modern Tokyo, Osaka, and Yokohama, evil spirits do not sleep. On the dark streets of the metropolis, one can encounter something that challenges reason.
This collectible illustrated edition, filled with the noir atmosphere of Japanese horror, brings together spine-chilling stories for the first time in Russian, classics of Eastern suspense – from ancient tales and legends to contemporary urban myths that will make you shudder. Under one cover – the best illustrated stories about vengeful ghosts, bloodthirsty demons, gods capable of destruction, fox shapeshifters, killer cats, and other inhabitants of the richest Japanese mythology.
