English Version

In Funami-cho, Hakodate, there is a place known in local rumor as the “Red Grave.”

According to the story, anyone who reads the characters written on the grave may get into an accident—or even die. The legend is said to have begun with a rumor that someone once read the inscription aloud and later suffered an accident.

The reported location is around 23 Funami-cho, Hakodate City, Hokkaido. If you visit the area, be respectful of graves, private property, and local residents. Do not trespass, disturb memorial sites, or visit in a way that could create safety issues.
