Japanese Weird Tales Series - Dying Alone
I heard this from a friend who works for a real estate company. There was a house where the tenant died alone in the room, and it took a week before he was found. The police came to investigate the case, and since there was no way to hide it from the other tenants, many of them clamored for a refund or a reduction in rent. In the midst of this, the person next door to the dead tenant also called. I thought he would be asking for a rent reduction, but he kept emphasizing that he simply wanted to know when the person next door had died. Although he couldn't divulge any personal information, his friend told him that he had been dead for about a week. The tenant who called: "I called to confirm because I had heard from someone else that he had been dead for a while, but that's just not possible," he said! In the meantime, the man next door came home and looked
Enigmatic stone wall Tomb of General Jackson's Arm
During the American Civil War, General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, also known as General Stonewall Jackson, was a general in the Confederate Army. He was one of the generals of General Robert Lee, the leader of the Confederate army, and fought very bravely. When the Northern army heard of his fame, it would often be routed without a fight, and he was the unrivaled general of the Confederate army at that time. However, he is most famous, not the world's unrivaled fighting skills, but his arm grave.Source:http://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/2348石墙杰克森将军在几次的作战中, always in the forefront, and therefore, as long as his out of the
Japanese Strange Tales Series - Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture
This happened during the summer of my fifth grade year when I went to the mountains with my brother to catch bugs. There were quite a few beetles in that mountain, and we could often catch all kinds of unicorns, spadefoots, etc. But I don't know if we had finished catching all the spots we frequented, but that day we only found some golden turtles and bees. So my brother and I decided to catch them in a different spot. I remembered a place in the mountains that we wouldn't normally go to and resembled an animal trail, so I went there with my brother. This may be speculative, but in my hometown, summer temperatures range from 35 to 37 degrees Celsius every day, and have even reached 40.9 degrees Celsius. However, as soon as my brother and I arrived at the animal path, we were like walking into a freezer, instantly chilled to the point of having goosebumps all over our bodies. I have a sensitive body, and although I felt that it was not a good place to be right away, it was
Japanese Weird Tales Series - Echo, The Sixth Man
I. Echo This is what happened to a friend. She was walking alone on a hiking trail. Since the mountain was not difficult to climb, she was in a happy mood and shouted to the valley several times. For the umpteenth time, the echo came from the other side of the mountain, and then suddenly a small voice spoke in her ear. "Could you please keep quiet for a little while." Startled, she subconsciously looked around and realized that there was no one nearby. But she did just hear an old voice. A sense of uneasiness suddenly surged through her heart, and she hurriedly descended the mountain to end the journey. Second, the sixth man This is what I heard from my predecessor. The story happened when he was camping with four friends. After dinner, they partied as if it were a matter of course. The crowd got drunk. The next morning.

Japanese Urban Legends - Foot Seller
After school, there was an old woman wearing a dark-colored headscarf standing in front of the small school. She looked like a peasant woman, but the basket she carried held the feet of many children. The old woman would grab someone and walk them through the door and keep asking, "Do you want a foot?" If the answer was "yes," she would take a foot out of the basket and force it up the child's ass. The shoved foot would stick to the body and the child would become three-legged. If the answer was "no," she would cut off a foot. The old woman would put the foot she cut off the child on her back like a golf club and add more feet to the child who answered "yes". Even if you tried to ignore her and pass by, she would follow you home and keep asking, "Do you want a foot?" This old woman is known as the foot saleswoman, and is
The Great Exorcist Incident Book: Walter Halleran (Final)
Generally speaking, there are several steps in an exorcism ceremony, although they vary according to the habits of each exorcist, but none of them will deviate from these steps. The first step is to confirm whether the person is possessed by an evil spirit, and the second step is that the evil spirit will pretend to be the victim and plead for forgiveness in the tone of the victim's voice. In the third step, once the evil spirit is recognized, it will interrupt the second step and begin to mutilate the body of the possessed person, such as carving words on the possessed person's body, or even having some horrible visions. In the fourth step, the possessed person will emit inhuman voices, which are sounds that the evil spirit has brought up to the earth from the hells, and which cannot be emitted by ordinary human beings.

The Great Exorcist Event Book: Walter Halleran (III)
Father Edward Hughes, Walter Halleran, and Rolandoi's parents rushed Rolandoi to the nearby Georgetown University Hospital, where J.B. Rhine and Luther Miles Hughes left, believing that Rolandoi had been possessed by a number of malevolent spirits, and that there was nothing they could do. All of them put Rolandoi in a separate room and tied him tightly to the bed with a harness. To avoid trouble, only Father Edward Hughes and Walter Halleran were left to continue the exorcism, while the others left the room. As Father Edward Hughes and Walter Halleran began their exorcism, the temperature in the room dropped again, so low that the three of them continued to exhale white smoke from their mouths.Source:http://www.cultofweird.com/wp-c
The Great Exorcist Event Book: Walter Halleran (II)
When Fr. Edward Hughes, along with Walter Halleran, arrived at Rolandoy's house, they felt a powerful force of evil spirits inside just by standing outside the door. Father Edward Hughes first prayed at the front door of the house and sprinkled holy water on the door. There was a white smoke from the sprinkled area, and then from behind the door, there was a faint sound of wailing, accompanied by roaring. Rolandoy's parents, on the other hand, were in a state of shock. Then Father Edward Hughes followed the crowd into the house and went to the door of Rolandoy's room. As he tried to open the door, he realized that it was locked tightly. He took the crucifix off his body and hung it on the doorknob of the door, and instructed Walter Halleran and Luther Miles Hughes to read together from the Bible the chapters about exorcism, and to keep sprinkling holy water on the door of the room.Sourc
The Great Exorcist Incident Book: Walter Halleran
In Western countries, the task of an exorcist is to drive away the evil spirits that possess human beings. These evil spirits will not only harm the possessed person, but will also use the possessed person to harm their friends or relatives around them. Among the Western exorcism legends, the exorcism legend of Roland Doe is one of the classics. Famous author William Peter Blatty also adapted this legend into the well-known movie The Exorcist. Because many people believed that only the most evil people would be possessed by evil spirits, but Rolandoy was only a thirteen-year-old boy who had not committed any crime, so all the parties involved in the exorcism adopted pseudonyms, including Roland!
