Heads up! This week we have a ghost story from Japan featuring the nosiest Yokai on this side of the Pacific - the Rokurokubi. Prepare to learn about what really happens to people who crane their necks to listen on the hot goss. But don’t worry about those long necks, it’s the Nukekubi you really gotta watch out for. It’s samurai monk up to bat against bouncing head ghosts.

Ep 74 - The Legend of Hell House

Some places are better left at rest. Some stories are better left untold. Someday maybe we’ll learn that lesson, but not this day. This day we’re talking about another urban legend local to Maryland… the legend of Hell House. Buckle up for some rumor milling and ghostly gossip-mongering as we have fun mixing myths and facts in the history and “history” of St. Mary’s College in Ilchester, Maryland.

Ep 68 - Mimi-Nashi-Hoichi & the Samurai Demon Crabs

(To the tune of SNL’s Stefon) This episode has everything: Samurai demon crabs, historic battles, floating demon fires, a poor young blind bard, party monks, ghost emperor children, spell tattoos, and did we mention those Samurai demon crabs have human faces on their backs? It’s a Japanese ghost story sure to make you laugh!
