The collection of astounding, instructive, frightening and piquant stories represents the centuries-old tradition of Japanese mystical prose, starting with translations of folklore tales and Chinese sources and ending with original and extraordinarily colorful works of Modern times. The book includes stories by such authors as Ihara Saikaku, Ryunosuke Akutagawa, Suzuki Sesan, Ogita Ansei, Asai Rei, Tsuga Teisho and Tanaka Kotaro. The works of writers belonging to different generations give a full-fledged idea of the "supernatural" trend in Japanese literature, which tells about the bizarre world of demons, magical creatures, mischievous werewolves, vengeful ghosts and mysterious incidents. The publication is illustrated with engravings and fragments of paintings by Japanese ukiyo-e—style artists Hokusai, Toriyama Sekien, Kawanabe Kyosai, Suzuki Shonen, Utagawa Kuniyoshi, Mori Yuzana, Masasumi Ryukansaijin and others.
