Motoujina Lighthouse: Haunted Rumors on Hiroshima’s Quiet Coast

Was Rasputin Really Immortal? The Mad Monk’s Death and 33-Centimeter Rumor
目次

English Version

The most famous rumor about Motoujina Lighthouse is that the ghost of a woman appears there. However, some say the most powerful haunted spot in the area is actually the public restroom in the nearby parking lot.

The lighthouse stands partway up the wooded slopes of Motoujina in Minami Ward, Hiroshima City. There is a parking area and public toilet nearby, making it relatively easy to access compared with many remote haunted locations.

According to local rumors, several people are said to have died by suicide from trees near the lighthouse in the past. Some believe these incidents may be connected to the ghost stories surrounding the area.

On the way to the lighthouse, there are also wartime air-raid shelters and the remains of an old university dormitory. Because of this concentration of unsettling places, some people speculate that the whole area may have a particularly strong spiritual atmosphere.

Motoujina is a real coastal area and public space. If you visit, stay on marked paths, do not enter abandoned buildings or air-raid shelters, follow posted rules, and be respectful of local residents and other visitors.

女の霊が出るという噂が最も有名であるが、本当に強力な心霊スポットは駐車場にある公衆トイレとも言われている。元宇品の山の中腹辺りにある灯台。近くに駐車場とトイレもある。過去に灯台付近の樹で自殺者が数名居たらしいが、そのことが原因なのであろうか。なお、灯台に向かう途中には戦時中の防空壕や、大学寄宿舎の廃墟等もあり、この辺一帯が強力な霊の磁場となっているのかもしれない。広島県広島市南区元宇品町24 宇品燈台
