I really have no intro for this. Cursed poems, cursed flash animations, cursed dreams, cursed mirrors and a whole slew of demons, these are the top 30 creepiest japanese urban legends.

Japanese urban legends (都市伝説 Toshi Densetsu) are enduring modern folktales of either:
paranormal creatures and their attacks on (usually) innocent victims; or
non-supernatural, widespread rumours in popular culture.
The former rarely include the fantastical or animistic yokai of earlier Japanese superstition, and are mostly based on onryo (Japanese ghosts who have become vengeful spirits and take their aggression out on any who cross their path). Modern urban legends tend to include Japanese schools and, similar to the yokai legends, incorporate cautionary tales into their stories, warning people not to bully others, walk home late at night, or talk to strangers. Although there are non-supernatural urban legends in Japan's cities, such as the secret Tokyo tunnels or the corpse-washing job rumour.

"So why did you remake this?" You may be asking. Well, in short, some musician copyright claimed the Tomino's Hell portion of the video when the poem is being read out loud in the computer voice. He used that portion in his song and the copyrighted the song.

Now he's making money off of my video for something he doesn't own. He used Tomino's Hell is his song, just like I used it in my video, because it wasn't copyright infringement.

I tried disputing it and it was rejected. If I try again, I could get a strike and I'm not risking with all this YouTube nonsense going on right now. So I remade it. Take that YouTube!

At this point I've listened to so many cursed stories it'll be battle royale of supernatural elements to get me

“If you don’t want to get cursed by the story skip to this: (insert time stamp)”

Me: *bout to get hunted by 5 different ghosts*

[kysruben]

Being japanese, a lot of these urban legends come from the elderly attempting to stop kids from bad habits.

[ginamcmanama]

nobody;
japanese legends: ya got two options, both are death.

[isaaccrumpler]

"Hearing this story will curse you"
Guess I'll die.

Possible explanation for Okiku’s Doll: there are some traditional dolls in Japan that are made to have hair that is held in place by tying the doll’s hair in a knot inside of the doll’s head. The knot can loosen naturally over time or as the doll is played with which makes it look like it’s hair is growing

Step 1:
Listen to all the cursed stories.
Step 2:
Wait for all the ghosts to come after you.
Step 3:
They will all fight over you and kill each other.
Congratulations you just killed a bunch of ghosts. (Well they killed each other but you caused it.)

I feel like that "double bed" story is just a story some parents told their kids to explain the noises coming from the parent's bedroom at night to stop the kids asking questions

[dezs.]

I sleep alone in a double bed. This thing always comes and lays down beside my bed. Then later it gets up and comes to sleep beside me. Then a little later it starts jumping up and down on the mattress barking at the morning joggers that pass outside the window.

I like how japan's most well known side is all cute but their horror stories are terrifying.

[GayGothPirate]

I wrote an essay on Japanese urban legends while studying Japanese culture in Tokyo. It's genuinely really fascinating stuff since my country doesn't really have much on the same level.

[s.d]

I listened to this a month ago and i can confirm i am dead.

[werisekk]

1:45 bold of you to assume my brain can remember something for more than a day

[sadielappin]

if the tall wiggly man who sways in the wind is a monster, used car lots are even more cursed than i initially thought.

[anoreoboi]

*Japan is definitely one of the best and most terrifying countries when it comes to urban legends*

[GAZArts]

Ugh i hate the ones where it suggests that just by listening to the story you'l be cursed... my adult brain is like "let me hear it!" and my inner child says "Run you fool!"
