内容简介

Think you know urban legends? Think again.

"Creepy, informative and super well written."

Perhaps you've heard of Kuchisake-onna, the slit-mouthed woman who cuts your mouth from ear to ear?

How about Sugisawa, the cursed village that damns all who stumble upon it?

Did you know that people lurk in the suicide forest waiting to claim victims of their own?

Toshiden: Exploring Japanese Urban Legends features over 60 of the most terrifying legends to come out of Japan, all painstakingly researched and--for many--translated into English for the first time. From supernatural creatures to medical mishaps, horrific crimes to chilling secrets of the entertainment industry, nobody does horror quite like Japan.

    涵盖日本各方面的都市传说,作者写得非常细致,把传说的各个变体也收编进了书中。作为与恐怖母题相伴的不容置喙的传统女性受害者形象,因为没有尽好当母亲的责任、没有听从男性权威的教诲、不愿意步入社会,她们遭受报复,化身厉鬼。深挖都市传说,这些以超自然形式修饰的故事隐含的规训意义是最简单明了不过、最让人作呕、最可以揭开神秘面纱的东西的了。02-09
