A New Edition of Japanese horror stories collected by Lafcardio Hearn during his travels in Japan in the early 20th century Augmented in this edition by original photographs from world-renowned photographer Hiroshi Watanabe whose work is exhibited and collected worldwide.

Will appeal to horror/supernatural fans as well as to fine art photography admirers especially (but not limited to) those in Japanese and other Asian communities. Illuminating introductory essay by Paul Murray, author of the prizewinning A Fantastic Journey: The Life and Literature of Lafcardio Hearn and From the Shadow of Dracula: A Life of Bram Stoker.
