Kaidan-eiga

“Kaidan (怪談) (sometimes transliterated kwaidan) is a Japanese word consisting of two kanji: 怪 (kai) meaning ‘strange, mysterious, rare or bewitching apparition’ and 談 (dan) meaning ‘talk’ or ‘recited narrative.’ In its broadest sense, kaidan refers to any ghost or horror story, but it has an old-fashioned ring to it that carries the connotation of Edo period Japanese folktales.”—Wikipedia
