English Version
Many of the spirits said to appear at Yokomuki Onsen Lodge are rumored to be children.
Visitors and ghost-story fans often mention the apparition of a young girl seen in the bath area, as well as the figure of a boy waving from a third-floor window. There are also stories of spirits connected to people who died by suicide appearing on the property.
One area said to be especially dangerous is the large hall on the first basement level. Details are unclear, but within Fukushima, this abandoned site is often mentioned alongside the so-called Haunted Pension as one of the prefecture’s best-known ruins.
The lodge is located in the Wakamiya area of Inawashiro, Yama District, Fukushima Prefecture, near Prefectural Route 30. As with any abandoned building, do not enter without permission. Old structures can be unstable, and visiting them may be unsafe or illegal.

ここに現れる霊の多くは子供の霊のようだ。浴場に現れる女の子の霊、三階の窓から手を振っている男の子の霊がよく目撃されている。他にも自殺者の霊も出没する。また地下一階にある大広間は非常に危険な場所のようだ。福島を代表する廃墟といえばお化けペンションかこの横向温泉ロッジが挙げられるだろう。詳細は不明。福島県耶麻郡猪苗代町若宮 県道30号線
