Apparitions, uncanny encounters and spirits bound to human passions reveal a landscape shaped by folklore, memory and belief. Hearn's retellings find terror in the familiar as readily as in the strange, balancing eerie suspense with moments of sorrow and unexpected beauty. These stories explore love, loss, loyalty and vengeance through the supernatural traditions of Japan, offering an atmospheric introduction to a writer whose fascination with his adopted country helped bring Japanese ghost literature to readers around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55730242158931,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55730242191699,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/japanese-ghost-stories-folio-society-2939","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
