Yotsuya Kaidan

Description

We begin in Japan, a place full of some of the best horror lore ever! Yotsuya Kaidan is the fictional, two centuries old story of a struggling samurai so desperate to escape the trappings of poverty that he horrifically betrays the one person who truly loves him. A person who refuses to stay gone when he gets rid of her. Then we have Kisaragi Station, a story that many have long believed isn’t just a story, but a true account from 2004, when users on a Japanese message board watched in real time as a woman named Hasumi posted frantic updates after waking alone on a train platform that didn’t exist on any map. What began as a simple missed stop slowly became one of Japan’s most disturbing and enduring paranormal internet legends. Next up, a woman is in need of an outpatient surgery that goes sideways. Did she watch her own death? And resuscitation? A man who drive the same route every day finds a detour one morning on his way to work. Did he perhaps slip into another time line? Lastly, a woman who is no stranger to the spaces we think of being spoopy, the morgue. Something very peculiar about her day at work. Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!
