Lafcadio Hearn's 'Japanese Ghost Stories' collects traditional tales of the supernatural from Japanese folklore. These narratives feature vengeful spirits, animate objects, and mythical creatures such as the headless rokuro-kubi, the flesh-eating jikininki, and the elusive mujina. Hearn reinterprets these stories, blending Japanese tradition with his own literary style, resulting in a collection recognized as classic supernatural literature.
