About Ghost Stories

Ghost Stories (学校の怪談) blends horror, mystery and supernatural by Studio Pierrot (2000). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. At its core: Kids and ghosts. When young Satsuki finds an old book of spells from her passed away mother, she gains the power to fight ghosts that are haunting her new school.

Further in, with the help of her allies, and of a really wicked devil cat, she has to protect everyone around her or be haunted for ever more.

In a horror series like this, atmosphere, sound and restraint do the heavy lifting. Satsuki Miyanoshita (Tomoko Kawakami) and Momoko Koigakubo (Kumi Sakuma) are two of the characters you will meet early. If you count yourself among viewers comfortable with dark, unsettling material, put it on your list. With 19 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Animation is handled by Studio Pierrot, so the studio's house style defines how Ghost Stories looks and moves on screen.
