English Version
At Tachimachi Cape, there are rumors that if you peer down from the sheer cliffs, something may grab at your feet and try to pull you over. The area is also known among ghost-story fans as a place where strange or “spirit” photographs are said to be taken.
According to local stories, in 2002 a man died by suicide at Tachimachi Cape, reportedly because of debt. Afterward, it is said that his wife and child also jumped from the same place.
Other incidents are also associated with the cape in rumor and local memory, including cars going over the cliff and a woman who was assaulted and then abandoned there. Because of these stories, some people wonder whether something spiritual might be behind the many unsettling and difficult-to-explain events connected to the area.
Location: Around 15-23 Sumiyoshi-cho, Hakodate, Hokkaido.
Tachimachi Cape is a real coastal cliff area. If you visit, stay on marked paths, keep away from cliff edges, and do not enter restricted areas, especially at night or in bad weather.

断崖絶壁から下を覗くと何者かに足を引っ張られるといった噂がある。心霊写真が撮れることでも有名。2002年に立待岬で男性が借金を苦に自殺をしたという。その後、妻子もまた同じ場所で飛び降りた。その他にも車ごと崖から飛び降りる、暴行された女性がそのまま放置されるといった事件も起きており、何か霊的なものが数々の説明不能な事象を引き起こしている、とでも言うのだろうか。北海道函館市住吉町１５?２３ ※この記事は情報整理のため一部内容を更新しました
