Popular Horror Author Mariko Kawana's New Book! 'Tenkyo Kaidan ~Moving Was Scary~' A Collection of Vivid True Horror Experiences After Moving, Releasing April 11!

Micro Magazine Co. (Chuo-ku, Tokyo) announces the release of 'Tenkyo Kaidan ~Moving Was Scary~' on Saturday, April 11, 2026.

A collection of vivid, real-life horror experiences encountered after moving into apartments, condominiums, detached houses, dormitories, and more.

This collection of true horror stories, themed around 'moving,' is presented during April, a season of new beginnings. Mariko Kawana, a prominent horror teller and author, interviewed individuals who actually encountered strange phenomena after moving into various types of residences (apartments, condominiums, detached houses, dormitories, etc.). From these, she carefully selected and wrote down 23 particularly terrifying accounts, compiling them into this horror anthology. According to the author, 'The greatest fear arises when one reads ahead and allows their imagination to run wild with dreadful scenarios.' These stories are designed to stir the reader's imagination, bringing forth indescribable fear, shivers, and disgust. Once you read it, you'll be afraid to be at home.
