In Yokote City, Akita Prefecture, there is a local rumor about Ainono Tunnel, located around Sannai Tsuchibuchi along the Heiwa Kaido road.

The Rumor

According to the story, if you turn off your lights while driving through the tunnel, a spirit will get into your car.

It is also said that after returning home, some people experience sleep paralysis. Beyond these claims, the details of the legend are unclear.
