A monthly program to bring together people of all ages who enjoy or are curious about various aspects of Japanese culture.

見てみましょう！ Kwaidan and Japanese Horror: Watch out! This month, the Japanese Culture Club is braving the terrors of old and new Japanese horror. Come share your favorite horror media and test your nerve against others in a mini-kaidankai as we delve into the dark together, one candle at a time.πŸ•―οΈ

Step into the eerie Japanese tradition of Hyakumonogatari (百物θͺž), or β€œA Round of Scary Stories.” Gather around, choose a Japanese urban legend, and share its tale as another candle is extinguished.

Each story takes you further through history, from the eerie legends of the Edo Period (1603-1868) to modern-day urban myths. With every flickering flame that fades, the atmosphere grows darker… and the stories get scarier. πŸ•―οΈ
