Ghost Story Event Announcement
At the cafe "ASANISIMASA" where I work,
Mr. Ise, who always kindly accepts to hold ghost story events,
will be holding a ghost story gathering this month at Mr. Ise's place in Kumamoto!
Why did I want to hold Mr. Ise's ghost story gathering at my workplace, ASANISIMASA?
I knew he had been active on YouTube for a while.
But I thought I wouldn't know until I actually listened to him,
so I went all the way to Oita to listen to a ghost story event, and that was the trigger.
Mr. Ise's ghost stories,
in my opinion, don't fit into the framework of "ghost stories."
Even though they are ghost stories, they can make you chuckle,
or feel a sense of wonder.
Please enjoy the "Ise World"!
Also, Hijikata Zenzai, who is active in Kumamoto, will be appearing.
He will tell us thrilling ghost stories with a different charm from Mr. Ise.
Stories related to the land will be even scarier for Kumamoto residents.
The reason I am drawn to ghost stories
is not simply because they are scary stories.
The changing expressions of the stories depending on the storyteller,
and the human activities and mysteries beyond those stories.
Including such aspects,
I believe that is the appeal of ghost stories.
Please come and experience a terrifying (scary!) night with the two of them!
