There is a story passed down in Japan, often told on rainy nights or during the humid heat of summer. It is not merely a ghost story intended to scare, but a tale of “love” that persists even after death. Today, I will introduce the legendary folktale known across Japan, particularly in Kyoto, as “The Child-Rearing Ghost” (Kosodate Yurei). While the word “ghost” may evoke fear, by the time you finish reading this story, you will likely feel a distinct warmth in your heart.
