The stories are transcribed from voluminous illustrated diaries kept by the author during almost nine years in Japan (collecting exhibits for the British Museum) during the latter part of the nineteenth century. In total, there are 57 different ghost stories, telling tales of love and passion, revenge, strange ghosts and eerie gods, mountains, trees and flowers, history, magic, dragons, murder and suicide.
