Book Introduction
The YouTube channel 'Ghost Story' tells
A more eerie, bizarre, and bizarre story

There was once a popular ghost story about a 'woman in a red mask'.
It is famous for the ghost story that a woman wearing a red mask would meet children in front of the school, ask them questions, and harass them, which actually led to a school boycott.
This ghost story spread widely not only in our country but also in Japan and China, and is still talked about today.


It is said that fear and dread are the oldest emotions humans have.
That fear and dread have been passed down through 'stories' from mouth to mouth, from record to record, to this day.
The YouTube channel 'Gwidamsilok' is a representative channel that tells this 'story', and following 'Maybe You Wanted Ghost Stories', which contains ghost stories from the Joseon Dynasty, it published 'Maybe You Wanted Ghost Stories 2', which compiles ghost stories from East Asia including Korea, China, and Japan.


"Maybe the Ghost Story You Wanted 2" is a story of East Asia that crosses Korea, China, and Japan. It allows us to encounter the strange stories of people who lived not far from us, and to imagine their fears hidden behind metaphors and allusions.
Also, anyone can enjoy reading this because it is a ghost story that contains the emotions of Korea, China, and Japan, and it is woven with the unique interpretation of 'Ghost Story' to make it even more interesting.
The story of this book will be even more engaging if you accept it not as a mere ghost story, but as a story of the ancients' struggles against the unknown, and at times as a legacy for gaining hope and wisdom.

Second Story, East Asian Ghost Story

Stories can be said to be traces of what has been with mankind for a long time.
So, regardless of era, region, or culture, wherever there is humanity, there are always stories.
Stories that contain fear and terror, in particular, are interesting, entertaining, and appealing.
In the story, there are gods who punish humans and create conflicts, monsters who harm and are jealous of humans, and transcendent and bizarre beings. These can also be seen as representing disasters, diseases, death, and calamities that have constantly plagued humanity for a long time.
So, through metaphors and hints in the story, we try to resist, submit to, or escape from that being.


『Maybe the Ghost Story You Wanted 2』 aims to contain more than just the simple fun of scary and bizarre stories.
It is structured so that you can feel more than just fear by imagining the mysterious events in the story.
This book collects ghost stories, legends, and unofficial history from the ancient East Asian people who lived in the same era as our ancestors. By incorporating the unique interpretation of "Ghost Story" into the ghost story sentiments of each country, the appeal of ghost stories has been enriched.
A captivating story is loved regardless of time or region.
I hope that through the stories in this book, you will be captivated by the timeless allure of fear and terror.
