English Version
Deep in the mountains of Tateno, Hikari City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, along Prefectural Route 23, seven abandoned buildings are said to stand in a row.
The sight alone is unsettling: a cluster of empty structures in a remote area, creating the kind of atmosphere that naturally attracts ghost stories and urban legends.
Local rumor says that a murder may have happened there long ago, though details are unclear and the story remains unverified. Whether the tale is based on fact or simply grew from the eerie scenery is unknown.
If you visit the area, view it only from public roads and do not enter abandoned buildings or private property. Rural mountain roads can also be narrow and dark, so use caution, especially at night.
