Yôkai hantâ: Hiruko; Demonios Asesinos

A shuttered schoolyard in autumn, dead leaves scraping brick. Fresh graffiti hides claw marks on the science block’s door. A child’s voice hums off-key in the janitor’s closet. Something wears a stolen face, stacking teenage heads onto pincered torsos. A digger with notebooks and a backpack follows the trail of wet footprints; his shadow flickers when he pauses. Chooses the quiet dread of 90s J-horror rather than melodrama.
