Welcome to Japan Ghost Tales.
I’m Phantom Joe — a storyteller wandering through the shadows of Japan’s folklore.
On this site, you’ll find English retellings of Japanese ghost stories, haunted places, and mysterious encounters. Each tale is inspired by real legends, history, and sometimes the eerie experiences of travelers who lost their way in the night.
My goal is simple: to share the chilling beauty of Japanese horror with anyone curious enough to listen.
If you dare, stay a while. The night is long, and the spirits are never far.
