So, Natsu...

Will you marry me?

Not yet.

Wait just a little longer.

You sure? Just a little longer?

I'll wait, because I love you.

I love you too.

You have a mole on your neck.

Yes. I was born with it.

Help!

What a whore!

We'll sacrifice her!

Darling...

Kill her!

- Kill the dirty whore! - Kill her!

Who is it?

You bastard!

You bastard!

Natsu!

Natsu!

You will do the cleansing.

Go to hell!

You're under arrest!

Who betrayed us?!

You're under arrest!

You're under arrest!

You're under arrest!

Wait!

Let go of me!

Natsu!

Natsu!

Natsu!

Who the hell are you? You barged in without permission! What for?

What's this all about?

What are you doing?

Yusaku! What's the matter?

I'm begging you. Please spare me.

It's punishment for adultery.

This woman has a husband!

We sacrificed her to cleanse her.

Of all things, you tipped the authority!

This is for my fallen fellows.

Yusaku!

Yusaku!

We'll make you feel better soon.

Pay for the pain and suffering of our fellowmen with your body!

Yusaku!

Yusaku!

I was a fool after all.

I'll never forget all of you!

Even when I'm dead!

I'll curse you!

I will curse you! No matter what!

All of you!

Natsu!

Natsu.

How dare you lie to me!

I will curse you too!

You're a traitor.

You cheated on your husband and committed adultery.

You sold your fellowmen.

We won't kill you.

Pay for your sin with those eyes for the rest of your life!

Yusaku's violent curse...

killed those who belonged to the masked occult group.

40 years passed since then.

It is now the era of Meiji.

All right!

Mister.

- This property... - Yes?

I like it a lot but...

can the rent be 10 sen cheaper?

Well, that's not exactly...

What about 5 sen then?

Sorry, sir, but I don't think that's possible.

Could you somehow make that happen? Please?

- 4 sen? No? - Impossible.

Please. I'm begging you.

Please wait here for a while.

Please?

- Please wait! - I'm counting on you!

I'd be happy to lease a unit of our terraced house for 60 sen per year.

Sorry for not introducing ourselves before I started talking.

My name is Tobei.

This is my wife, Nui.

My name is Yokichi.

Yes.

My head clerk has just told me about your dilemma.

You can't find a rental property that matches your budget?

That's why I decided to talk to you.

I'm kind of embarrassed.

Oh, by the way...

What you just said...

60 sen per year or something?

Is that true?

Certainly. It's true.

There's a terraced house in the neighborhood.

We've been looking for someone to rent a unit.

And I came along, looking for a rental property.

Yes. That sums it up.

Anyway, 60 sen per year, huh?

Of course I'm happy with it, but...

why is it so cheap?

Do you have a problem if it's cheap?

Oh, no! I have no problem.

The cheaper the better for anyone.

There is no problem then.

There is only one unit available.

We'd rather have that unit occupied...

and make 60 sen than keeping it empty.

So, what do you say?

All right then. I'll take it.

Get the paperwork ready.

Yes. Hey!

- 60 sen, right? - Yes.

Please sign here.

It's right here. Correct?

Yes.

I'm gonna sign it. All right?

This will make my wife, Chiyo, and my daughter, Aya, very happy.

One more thing, Yokichi.

One more thing? Don't tell me you changed your mind.

To tell you the truth, Yokichi...

About the house...

Hey!

But, we should tell him...

I know!

I'll tell him!

What are you talking about?

Listen, Yokichi.

About the house you are ready to rent...

The head of the house who was renting it several years ago...

went crazy out of the blue.

He went missing after that.

And, this is something I heard from the previous landlord...

Something similar happened several decades ago.

The head of the house also went insane.

Do you still want to rent it?

This is hard to talk about.

But...

we think it's the right thing to do to let the tenant know about this.

Are you sure the rent is 60 sen per year?

Yes. 60 sen per year. I promise.

Hold on a minute.

Hold on a minute.

60 sen per year...

Wait! Hold it a little longer!

I'll decide soon.

60 sen per year...

60 sen per year...

All right. I've made up my mind!

I'll rent it!

I was born and raised in Edo... no, I should say Tokyo!

So I only believe what I see with my own eyes!

I'm not some wimp who'd panic because of someone's scary story.

Don't worry. I won't go crazy!

Yo... ki... chi. Signed.

You can't beat it. The rent is only 60 sen per year!

You can't find a deal like this!

Aya, we're almost there.

Aya, get along with the kids in the neighborhood.

- We can't wait. Right? - Yes.

Here we are.

Which one is ours?

Let's see... the second to the last on the left.

It's over there.

What is she?

She's kind of creepy.

Yo... ki...

chi... Signed.

There is one more thing.

Oh, come on! What else now?

Well, your neighbor on the left...

is an old lady.

She may babble something strange.

But pay no attention to her.

No attention? What do you mean?

She just has a few loose screws...

Pay no attention.

There are many old women like that.

She's probably senile.

Now let's go.

Oh, hello.

We're moving in there.

How do you do?

Pardon me. Anything wrong?

I wonder what's going on.

The head of the house who was renting it several years ago...

went crazy out of the blue.

The husband went missing after that.

It'll be fine. Pay no attention.

What's wrong, Aya?

You dropped your doll.

Here you go.

Let's go inside.

Now, let's go in.

I don't like it here!

Aya, you'll become a big sister soon.

That's right.

If you act like that, your baby sibling will laugh at you.

All right then.

Honey. Honey!

There are big cracks over here!

Two up there and two down there. And the holes!

What do you think they are?

The husband went crazy out of the blue.

I would say...

a previous tenant got drunk and bumped his head on the wall.

You may be right.

It's gonna be a big chore to clean up this place.

You're gonna help me. All right?

Yup!

No!

No! Let go!

Let go!

Aya!

Let go!

What's the matter, Aya?

The wall... the black hand came out of the wall and pulled me!

Black hand?

I don't see anything.

I saw a black hand!

Maybe you were having a bad dream or something.

- Alright. I'm off to work. - See you later.

Honey! Lunch box!

- See ya! - Bye.

Aya.

Aya. Time to get up!

Daddy already left for work.

Come on, Aya. Get up!

We have to go say hello to our new neighbors.

Hello. We've just moved into the neighborhood.

Hello.

Good morning!

Hello!

Mommy! Mommy!

Mommy! Mommy!

What is it?

The wall... a black hand came out of that wall!

Honey, I know we just moved here...

but can we move out of here?

What do you mean?

A black hand came out of the wall.

It's not just what Aya says.

The people here are very unfriendly.

They act as if we were a boil or something.

They don't seem like they want to have anything to do with us.

Besides, the old woman we saw when we moved in...

We saw her yesterday when we went to say hi. You'd freak out.

Freak out? What did you see?

Eyes! Her eyes!

What's wrong with her eyes?

She has white eyes! I don't think she can see.

With these cracks on the wall and...

our new neighbors and...

the blind old woman next door...

everything's too creepy.

Say, let's move out for the sake of Aya and me! Please!

That's absurd! Nonsense!

I had to save up to move in here!

But still...

I've already paid the rent!

I can't ask the landlord for the money back now!

Besides, where will we go?

I'm fine with where we lived!

We were friendly with the neighbors.

Everyone was kind and no one was strange like it is here!

Please! Let's move back!

Wait, honey!

I'm not done talking!

Where do we find that kind of money?

Whether we move back or go somewhere else,

we need money anyway!

So I have to go and work hard!

I'll work hard and...

save up enough soon.

So, be patient just a little longer.

I'm sure you're tired from moving and whatnot.

I know...

Why don't you go visit your parents with Aya?

Why don't you go relax for a night without worrying about the house?

All right?

Honey.

Don't worry.

We are husband and wife.

Thank you. I think I'll do that.

What? Don't tell me you're back to being "Cry Baby" Chiyo. Huh?

You'll soon be a mother of two.

You've gotta be strong.

Well... I'm gonna go.

Aya.

Let's go to grandpa and grandma's.

What's the matter, Aya?

Are you going to grandpa's or not?

I'm not going.

Come on. You're coming with me.

What's wrong, Aya?

Aren't you afraid of this wall?

I'm not afraid.

Aya?

You said you were afraid because of the black hand.

Do whatever you like then!

Aya.

While I'm gone, don't whine too much. Don't give Daddy a hard time. OK?

If you're good, I'll bring you back some goodies.

Yes.

Hold it! Just a sec!

Sweetie.

What?

Are you worried about your wife and daughter?

Nonsense! Why would I?

I sent her with my daughter to her parent's house today.

It'll be fine.

By the way, So-me,

do you know why I've moved into a place like this?

Oh, I don't know.

It's because I want to see you.

The house before this one was on the other side of the Okawa River.

I couldn't see you very often.

But now I live just around the corner from you.

I get to see you far more often than before.

- Wait! - What is it?

So, you're saying that you moved because you wanted to see me?

Of course!

Because I wanna see you even every day.

It makes me happy but...

if your wife finds out, she'll cry.

I know. She's called "Cry Baby" Chiyo.

She cried this morning too. I was at my wit's end.

If you say a few nice things,

she starts crying with joy.

Women are so simple-minded.

Oh?

Does it apply to me too?

Oh, no! You're not dumb like that!

- Are you sure? - I swear!

You have a mole here.

Yeah. I was born with it.

You know what?

A woman with a mole on her neck is demonic.

What do you mean by demonic?

You're calling me a name?

It's a woman who drives a man crazy.

What are you saying?

You think I'm stupid just like your wife!

I'll show it to you that I'm not dumb.

I can't wait!

Drive me crazy tonight with the enchanted power of your mole.

So-me!

I'm home!

What's wrong, Honey? You have a day off?

I'll get lunch ready right away.

Aya.

Aya?

What's the matter, Aya?

Aya?

Aya!

What's wrong, honey?

Yes.

Yes?

Come in!

No.

I'm fine here.

To tell you the truth,

40 years ago...

in this house...

What are you gonna do?

What's the matter?

It's punishment for adultery.

Go to hell!

This is for my fallen fellows.

Yusaku!

I'll curse you!

Ever since then...

every tenant in this house was cursed,

went crazy and died.

That's why...

you should...

move out of here as soon as possible.

Excuse me...

I know nothing! Nothing!

Is something wrong?

Ma'am?

Ma'am?

I'm coming in!

Ma'am...?

Is something wrong?

I'm coming in.

Is something...

Daddy! Mommy! Help me!

Ava! Aya!

What's the matter, Aya?

Ava! Aya!

Aya! Aya?

Aya!

Aya, you'll be fine.

Honey...

what is wrong with you?

Help!

Honey...

Spare me.

Is something wrong?

What's wrong? You're covered with blood.

Could it be that you've gone mad?

We did warn you in advance.

A broad-bladed kitchen knife is over there on the floor.

You...

ended up killing your wife, didn't you?

We have no choice but...

to sacrifice this man.

40 years ago...

we executed Yusaku, Natsu's lover.

His grudge was extremely violent.

You will do the cleansing.

He cursed our fellowmen to death one by one.

In order to calm his spirit down,

we all moved into this community...

and let Natsu with poked eyes live next door to this unit...

as a guard to calm Yusaku's spirit.

You know what? A woman with a mole on her neck is demonic.
