Synopsis

Three tales of supernatural terror reveal how love, betrayal, and resentment can survive beyond death. In Yotsuya Kaidan, Oiwa is destroyed by the treachery of her husband Iemon, but the wrong done to her returns as a curse that refuses to remain buried.

Tenshu Monogatari follows the forbidden bond between human falconer Zushonosuke and Tomihime, a supernatural princess living above Shirasagi Castle. Bakeneko then brings a mysterious Medicine Seller to a wedding struck by sudden death, where a vengeful cat spirit cannot be exorcised until its Form, Truth, and Reason are uncovered.
