Tales of the Countryside at Night

This book is a collection of standalone tales. There is no protagonist running through the entire book; each chapter is a complete, independent strange tale.

Here are the lingering obsessions of the dead, and the darkness hidden beneath the human heart.

Please read these as fictional stories. Believe in science, do not be superstitious, and do not try to match them to real life.

Night has fallen. Listen to these tales of strange happenings from the countryside.

The taboos elders repeat again and again should never be dismissed.

Picking up shoes on a night road, paper lanterns leading the way home, forbidden songs beneath the moon, never spending the night in an abandoned village.

Every one of these rules passed down by word of mouth comes from a real encounter.

One complete supernatural tale after another unfolds here.

Is it the work of ghosts and monsters, or are human hearts impossible to fathom?

An old folk song, a hidden tale, and a chill running down your spine when you're done.

⚠️ If you're easily frightened at night, don't read this alone.
