OK, I don't normally show the stuff I get from Retrospec on the app unless it is REALLY weird (ex. the owl and the accent). But THIS! THIS IS SO COOL! IT'S A MAGIC FLYING BROOMSTICK! And it's apparently a Nimbus 2001 (no idea if that is a model number or year make) and man it is fast! Can we all just admire the the sleekness of this broom, the foot holds, and I'm pretty sure there is some kind of magical cushion so it doesn't hurt to sit on it!

Tends to involve ghosts and demons mostly. Strong emotions bringing on curses that last beyond death. There's kind of a reason why Japan's got some of the best horror stories and movies around honestly.

I'm aware of some of their ghost stories. I quite like the movie, The Ring. Not familiar with demons though.

The curses that last beyond death sound interesting. How does that work? Do the strong emotions stick to a person or something?

Sometimes a person or sometimes to a place or thing.

Like say a kid is killed at crosswalk. If you go alone there then you might get led by the spirit of the kid to walk in front of a sudden speeding car because no one stopped to help the kid out.

It's like the dead can't always realize that the one they're pissed at probably isn't whoever they're going after.

Then couldn't anything be haunted in Japan?

Pretty much. And if you go to Japan everyone in the area will know what is and isn't haunted.
