"The Overtaking"

That really scared me.

Who was it that screamed first?

It wasn't me. It was someone behind me.

- Was it U? - No, I screamed because everyone else screamed.

Since U got his driver's license,

we often went for late night drives like this.

That surgery room was really creepy.

I can't believe there were still syringes there.

We went to look at supposedly haunted railroad tracks...

It's scary there.

or abandoned buildings that were supposedly haunted.

- Especially the room in the back. - That must've been the morgue.

You also said that when you went inside, your shoulders felt heavier.

Yeah, I got a headache as well.

Even though we often said we did, we never really encountered anything odd.

- I didn't tell you guys, but actually... - What?

I felt like there was someone else in that room.

What are you saying?

I was the last person to leave the room.

I went out right after you, but I felt someone watching me from behind.

And then, someone slowly crossed the room.

- You saw it? - No, I turned around instantly.

But there was no one there. But I felt that someone was there.

Seriously?

It was a ghost, right?

Well, probably...

- What the hell... - So scary...

Any time we encountered something creepy, everyone got excited, like we'd seen something.

But in fact, we all knew it wasn't real.

We never really saw any ghosts or spirits.

Hey! Is this it?

Yes, that's it.

Yes, that's right.

Okay everyone, we're going in.

These four people all like to talk about it.

- The air is getting colder. - It is!

- What is the rumor about this place? - There are several rumors.

I head that you can see white hands flying towards the car.

Then, you will see a face.

- That's so creepy! - Hey, let's stop the car for a moment.

- Yes, let's go out for a moment. - Really? It's so scary.

- We can't park in the tunnel. - Who cares, there's no car behind us.

But if we get hit, it will be bad.

As a result, nothing happened.

But it's too boring to admit it.

Actually...

- Although I didn't say anything... - What?

In the stained tunnel walls, I could see a person's face.

Seriously?

It was a ghost, right?

Well, probably...

That is so creepy.

In reality, everyone knew that there was nothing at all.

We were just making it up.

The same was true this night.

At least that's what U says.

What's that?

Where did she come from?

She just appeared.

What happened? Is she taking a walk?

How is it possible?

At this hour, at this place...

And long black hair.

Ghost, that's definitely a ghost.

I'm scared.

We were all very surprised. It was 3 o'clock in the morning.

It wasn't near any residential areas.

Ok, let's go.

Ok.

It's been said this since ancient times that if you finish 100 ghost stories in one night,

real ghosts will appear.

I sometimes receive... mysterious letters. These stories are based on these letters.

KIDAN: PIECES OF DARKNESS

I received this letter...

Mom!

One day...

Mom!

K suddenly had to leave early for work.

- Sorry for just dropping by like this. - It's okay.

Hey, take off your shoes!

- Thank you! - Bye!

Wait up!

K has two children...

One in kindergarten, another in elementary school.

Be careful, it can be dangerous.

K dropped her kids off at her mother who lives nearby.

Damn! You guys!

Kazu, Sho! Really!

Is it good?

Not too hot? Good, eat some vegetables as well.

After the children had finished their lunch, K's mother put the children down for a nap.

While doing so...

she fell asleep as well.

"The Shadow Man"

Suddenly...

a noise woke her up.

Mom? I'll be back soon, what do you want for dinner?

I'm not sure, what do you want?

What happened to you?

Did you hit yourself while sleeping?

While sleeping?

That's probably it.

Looks painful. Were you having a nightmare?

Do you think I'm that restless when I sleep?

Shota has also been sleeping restlessly lately.

He rolled off the bed because he was sleeping so restlessly.

It scared the crap out of me.

I asked him "Are you okay?"

He said, "I dreamed that I was falling from the slide".

So funny.

You probably did the same thing, mom.

I wonder why I slept so restlessly.

That story about Shota was funny though.

Really.

Do you want another drink, mom?

I'd better not, I don't want to get a nosebleed again.

Mom, what was that?

Both of them could hear it clearly...

the noise was so loud.

It sounded like someone was angry...

and trying to break open a window.

The sound was intense.

K and her mother didn't dare to find out what it was.

Until this day...

I don't know who that man was.

Was it actually a man?

Or was it a ghost?

After this, the shadow man never appeared before Mrs. K again.

I received this letter...

See you tomorrow.

Bye bye.

This is the story of high school student, S.

One day, on her way home from school...

S passed by the park near her home.

Suddenly...

She inadvertently looked at the park...

She saw someone standing there without an umbrella.

- Excuse me! - Yes?

- There's a strange man over there. - What?

- Over there! - Hold on.

Hey! What are you doing?

Someone committed suicide!

I will call the police.

You should go straight home.

Mom! Mom!

Three years went by...

S moved to Tokyo and is now a college student.

Till this day...

anytime S sees a man in dark overalls, she's terrified.

She's always relieved when the person wearing the overalls just passes by her.

However, S says that sometimes there are people who don't move at all.

Not moving.

Just standing there.

What is it?

"The Tailing"

I received this letter...

This is a story that S, a high school student, heard from her homeroom teacher.

Goodbye, teacher.

Sorry, teacher.

You are so wreckless.

Let me help you.

Are you hurt? No? Okay...

Here we go.

- Thank you. - Goodbye, teacher.

- Go home and be careful. - Yes, teacher!

This is the personal experience of the homeroom teacher.

Teacher...

Can we talk?

"Looking Out Together"

About an hour later...

Dean!

It came from upstairs.

Teacher?

The clerk...

- Help me get her down! - Yes!

One, two, three...

Teacher, come on! Teacher!

Grab some scissors and cut the rope.

Hurry up!

Got her?

Lay her down over here.

Teacher, grab a desk!

Hurry!

Ok?

Are you ok?

Are you ok?

It's useless...

It must be rigor mortis.

I'll call for an ambulance.

You're not allowed to enter.

Hey, get out of here.

What happened?

Teacher, can you wait here?

What? What? Is she still alive?

I'll get something to cover her up.

Cho...

What are you looking at?

She had a mark from tears on her cheek...

Dean?

You stupid dead woman.

Stop it.

What do you want?

We just slept together once.

Get over it.

Until the other teachers returned...

Leave me alone.

her hand laid on his shoulder, while she looked out the window with him.

- I'm sorry I kept you waiting. - That's enough!

- Teacher? - Oh, nothing...

- Can you come and help? - Sure.

Teacher...

I received this letter...

Let's go.

- It's dangerous! - Go, go!

Very scary.

Really?

Yeah.

It really happened at my last school.

A suddenly transferred to N's class.

A few weeks ago...

she was visiting a classmate's home...

Those footsteps sound scary.

Klick, klack, klick...

What exactly is the "red woman"?

I don't know, but she looked human.

So creepy.

Let me tell everyone this story later.

Ok.

Shut up!

People who tell ghost stories usually aren't afraid themselves, you know?

When you tell the story...

the red woman gets angry and really appears.

Sure.

It's a really dangerous ghost story.

Huh?

I'm only joking!

I'm gonna kill you!

Don't kill me.

You really scared me.

That was so funny.

Oh, it's too much!

"The Red Woman"

Is this the floor?

Yeah.

Where is everyone?

Happy Birthday!

Me? How did you know?

Sorry, I saw it in the student handbook.

Thank you.

Come!

My parents aren't back until tomorrow.

So I decided to do it at my house.

Awesome!

Right!

Everyone wants to be your friend.

You seem very nice.

Really? Thank you!

So, let's have some fun!

Happy Birthday!

They won't go out.

Help me.

That's amazing.

Happy Birthday!

Thank you.

Isn't this delicious?

This shop also sells lunch, let's go there next time.

Okay.

Very delicious.

Despite an inexplicable sense of emptiness, everyone was still having a lot of fun.

Then the night came...

You should tell everyone the story I told you before.

What?

The ghost story I told you.

What ghost story?

It's perfect for the night time.

Good.

Do you really want to tell it?

No problem.

Then I will turn off the lights.

The switch is over there.

So N started telling them the mysterious story of the red woman...

And then...

I heard: *klick, klack, klick...* I don't know where it came from.

Klick, klack, klick...

When I turned around...

a woman in red was standing there!

What? Isn't it scary?

I think it's terrifying.

I'm usually not easily scared.

No, it's terrifying.

Also, when you tell this story...

Oh right, when you tell this story...

The red woman will get so angry...

that she appears!

It's good, right?

Shut up!

Are my parents back already?

Hey...

What are you doing?

Hey, wait...

It's probably my mom.

Hey...

No, there's no one here.

It was just an illusion.

What happened?

There's someone there!

No one's here.

Just an illusion?

I saw it! I really saw it!

Is it true?

What?

Just by telling the story...

the red woman will appear?

Wait, do you really believe this story?

It's your fault.

- It's just a scary story. - I'm too scared already.

Ghosts don't exist.

It wasn't a ghost.

It was really there.

Don't be ridiculous.

But something weird is going on.

You're overreacting.

Hey, let's calm down.

Don't tell me to calm down!

It's fine.

What the hell was that? I really saw it.

It's fine.

Sorry.

Let's go home.

Are you okay?

I'm sorry for telling you about the story.

You don't believe that, right?

Never mind.

It's already very late.

We should go before it gets too late.

Yeah.

So they started walking back home.

We two are fine.

As long as you tell that story to someone else...

you're fine.

So, we're all right.

That woman will follow the person who listened to the story.

In contrast, she will leave the one who told it alone.

Follow the person who listened to the story?

So everyone is like pushing each other out.

Everyone told the story of the woman, but no one listened when I had to tell it.

Not even my teacher.

So I moved to another school.

Why didn't you tell me about this?

This school will probably also popularize this story.

In this town...

many people have witnessed the red woman.

Later.

But no one knows who she really is.

What! No!

Why? Why me?

I received this letter...

This happened when T was in high school.

His friend Y wanted to listen to the radio one night.

So he tuned into the school radio station.

Then...

"Empty channel"

I have something to tell to you...

Huh?

I'm so angry...

What is...

Do you understand what's going on?

She pretended to be my best friend, but was dating a guy I like behind my back.

That doesn't make sense.

Because a true good friend...

wouldn't date someone that I like.

That usually goes both ways.

So she's my enemy now.

That's all?

I will never forgive her.

Great! Let's go!

That skirt is too short!

Four-eyed chicken!

It's a free channel.

Every night at the same time I hear a woman's voice.

She uses the station to complain about bad things in her life.

Here's the thing.

It's like listening to someone's private conversations.

That's what it feels like.

She even talks about stuff she did in a hotel.

It's pretty explicit.

But what is it?

Maybe you're eavesdropping on radio waves.

So you don't think I should be listening?

Well it probably isn't a good thing.

I've told you that the roof is off limits!

Come down!

I'll be on my way.

Are you sure it's a bad idea?

I'm always the one calling!

I do everything for him.

I wish he would die.

I gave him a present.

He threw it away without even opening it.

What was inside the present?

You know what was inside?

Isn't it obvious?

His baby, of course.

His child!

I know.

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm not done talking yet!

Hi!

Hi!

Nao-chan is really cute.

But she has bad breath.

That's okay for girls.

Do you like her?

Nao-chan!

I'll go ahead.

Oh...

Ball!

Are you still listening to that?

It's just...

it's getting increasingly aggressive.

That woman is very disturbed.

It feels a bit dangerous.

You shouldn't keep listeni...

I'm a bit worried.

He's acting a bit strange.

Huh?

When I passed him before...

I heard a strange sound.

A sound?

It was like a baby crying.

No, just kidding.

I probably just misheard.

Come on! Come on! Come on!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

There.

I really want you to listen.

The next day, in school,

he was told that Y had passed away.

He was hanging by his neck in his room.

He didn't leave a suicide note.

The motivation for the suicide is ultimately unknown.

I received this letter...

This happened in the high school where "I" was employed.

That day, there were only two teachers left in the office.

Teacher, aren't you leaving?

"Hide and Seek"

I have to stay late again.

You'd better not stay too late here.

Especially when you're the only one here.

What do you mean?

Teacher, you just started working here, so you probably don't know...

but many things have happened here.

Many things?

Yes, many things.

This isn't like every other school.

Understand?

I'm heading out.

Teacher, wait a minute.

This is the only time of the day when I can smoke.

Regarding what you just said...

What did I just say?

About many things happening here?

Oh, that, that was a long time...

Are there any students here at this hour?

What's going on here?

Who is it?

What...

These kind of things...

Huh! Wait!

What exactly is it?

Teacher!

Bye bye!

What happened? What's the problem?

Teacher!

For crying out loud.

Wait up!

I'll go with you.

Nothing...

just an illusion.

Hey!

Why..

Why did you leave?

I told you to wait up.

Who acts like that?

What is this?

All you say is 'bye'?

Stupid.

Stupid, absolutely stupid.

Hey... who is it?

Who are you, child?

Are you here with someone?

Right.

Was that you pranking us earlier?

What are you doing?

Hey!

Don't run!

What is this dance now?

Ballet?

Don't be a fool!

Oh, darn it.

I forgot to send a letter.

That idiot probably went home.

Hey? Teacher, sorry.

Can you mail the envelope on my table?

Hello?

Hello? Hello? Hello?

Excellent!

Damn kid! Wait up I said!

Did you not hear me?

Wait up...

That door is locked.

Hide and seek is over.

What are you doing?

Say something!

I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

Who is this little girl?

Nobody knows when it started to appear.

It's said that she's been around for a long time.

Nobody knows why.

It's said that only teachers encounter the little girl.

Teacher!

Teacher!

Teacher!

What happened to the teacher? Teacher!

Envelope... mailbox...

What? What are you saying?

Ah... no!

The car! In the car!

Teacher!

I received this letter...

When N was in elementary school something weird happened.

"Keep Playing"

Let's go play in the graveyard.

Ok!

He didn't usually play at the graveyard,

and he doesn't know why he did it that day.

Everyone ran to the graveyard and played.

Run! Run!

Watch out for the dead!

You might get cursed!

- Retribution! - Ancestors help me!

Retribution! Retribution! Retribution!

Are you ok?

I want to go home.

He got his retribution.

Scary!

That's so scary!

Super scary!

- What happened? - What happened?

What happened?

Everyone together... one or two!

Really disgusting!

Very scary.

Are you ok?

No, I have to go home.

It looked really disgusting.

Right?

Keep playing?

Ok.

I have to go home.

Let's keep playing.

I'm going home.

It hurts!

I cut my hand!

Look, it's bleeding.

I have to go home.

For some reason N couldn't ask if they should go home together.

And K didn't say he was going home.

Keep playing.

Keep playing.

Keep playing.

Keep playing.

Who was the last to stay?

No one asked K what happened.

And K didn't say a word.

A while after that...

K stopped talking completely.

I received this letter...

When T was in high school...

there was a bad rumor going around in the village.

It was said that a woman with many children...

was a bit strange.

Hello!

Give her the circulation board

Circulation board.

Thank you.

Congratulations?

I'm just fat.

I see.

"Thief"

You still ate that? Really?

You saw it too, mom?

I did.

So, I assumed she was pregnant and asked.

She said she was just fat.

How could it just be fat?

That is the kind of fat you get when you have a child in your stomach.

That's right.

Because only the belly is big.

T hated seeing her mother gossip behind someone elses back.

Why would she say that?

It's really annoying to have a neighbor like that.

I feel bad.

After a while the rumor grew even worse.

I also want!

Okay.

Who wants water?

Here! Here!

I want water!

She's suddenly lost weight.

Very strange.

That's not what it's like losing weight.

Maybe she gave birth.

But I haven't seen any child yet.

She's probably hiding it away somewhere.

If you have that many children, your life must be very sad.

Poor thing.

It's terrible.

Sister!

Whose child are you?

Here.

Ma-chan said that he fell into the ditch.

Ditch?

The ditch.

This ditch?

That's right.

Did you accidentally fall down?

I was dropped there.

By who?

By a thief.

A thief?

Did the thief run into the house?

The thief threw me down.

After he opened the lid.

He just threw Ma-chan down.

Then the water flowed and flowed.

Ma-chan was washed away.

So someone saved you?

No.

I was washed further and further and then died.

You're obviously alive.

I'm alive, but dead.

When did this happen?

Recently.

You're so stupid, you should've called for help.

I did.

I cried and cried, but it was useless.

You cried?

Poor baby.

Hey... the person that was dropped into the ditch...

Was it Ma-Chan? Or was it a baby?

Wait a minute.

It's inside out.

What are you doing?

All right.

Give me your arm.

Hello.

This is for you.

Thank you.

Your stomach was so big.

What happened?

It seems I had a problem with my ovaries.

After eating the medicine, it disappeared.

How's Ma-chan doing?

What?

Ma-chan.

Very good.

T doesn't believe in rumors...

but ever since that day...

she was very afraid of the ditch.

I received this letter...

Hey?

I want you to come get your things.

Why do I have to send it?

I hate even touching your things.

If you haven't picked it up in a week, I'll throw it out.

No, I'll wait one week. As your ex, that's my limit.

Call me when you know what day you're coming to pick it up.

K said she started getting creeped out by her closet.

"Closed"

Hey?

Next month?

That's it, I'm throwing it out tomorrow.

If you want it, come and get it.

I'm not sending it to you.

There's no point in apologizing.

No.

Whether you were cheating on me or not...

doesn't matter anymore.

So what do you want to do about your stuff?

The day after tomorrow?

Okay, then.

That's fine.

Hey, are you still coming tomorrow morning?

It's mostly garbage.

You can throw away anything you don't want.

Also... can you pick up your dirty suitcase?

Take that too.

Ah... this one.

I should just put everything in here.

Right?

I am really smart.

Ah, that's right.

I picked this up, but didn't open it.

I wonder if it'll open.

Hey, wait a minute.

Here.

Right, you got these for me.

I can't open it.

Help me!

Finally because K's ex-boyfriend didn't take the suitcase away...

K decided to throw it away.

Go to hell.
