Japanese Folklore Horror | The Mountain Spirit That Counts Lantern Steps

Описание: Deep in the mountains of Japan, there is an old folklore few hikers speak about openly.

Miss a step, hesitate too long, or turn back at the wrong moment—and the mountain remembers.

This is a slow, atmospheric Japanese folklore horror story designed for late-night listening. No screams. No rush. Just the quiet unease of being watched in the dark.
