Shuji Nakamoto(28) (pseudonym), an office worker in Chiba Prefecture, had this experience in my high school days. On that day, the club activity was extended, so I came home later than usual, and the neighborhood was getting dark. I sat on my bike and waited for the level crossing in front of my house to go up, but the gates wouldn't go up. After a while, the stones on the train tracks rustled and ran, and for some reason I heard a boy's voice shouting. Gradually, a lot of people gathered around the gate that didn't go up, looking worriedly at the track and talking to each other about something. When I pricked up my ears, I heard that someone had gotten into the track and was hit by the train. My house is situated right next to the railroad tracks past this level crossing, and I can see it from the level crossing. Just one step away from home but wait

Japanese Weird Tales Series - Mother's Amulet

Hello everyone, this is Tomoki Harada from Weird Communications Radio. The story I'm going to tell you this time is a personal story about the mother of a person I met at work. When the mother was a student, she used to take the bus to school. The area around the bus stop near her home was very quiet, with not a lot of people around. Often the only person who got on and off the bus there was herself. In the morning, when I walked to the bus stop, since there was no one there, I just stood by the stop sign and waited for the bus to come by, and that was probably how I felt. One day, I walked towards the bus stop as usual. On that day, I don't know why, but instead of walking to the side of the stop sign, I stopped a good distance away, and as for the reason, even I don't know why, but there was one thing that I didn't know.

Strange Tales Series - Midnight Walk

On a hot summer night, after studying for an exam, I walked to a convenience store about five minutes away from my home to buy something to eat and take a walk to rest. I remember it was around 3:00 a.m. There were few streetlights along the road, the street was dark as hell, and of course there were no people around. As I walked along, I could occasionally hear the cawing of crows, which really wasn't very comforting. Suddenly I looked back and saw a figure walking towards me in front of the dark road. Under the flickering light of the broken streetlamp, I could see that the figure was only about a meter tall. Was it a child? I was instantly scared to think about it. How could there be a child alone on the street at this hour? I don't know why, but I started to pretend I was fine, not wanting to be recognized as being scared. The silhouette was approaching
