GTTU 130: J-Horror

We're talking about J-Horror! Japanese horror! Where does it come from? Culturally, folklore-wise? We're trying to do the impossible: figure out the origins of iconic horror like The Ring, The Grudge, and Uzumaki! Also we're compiling a short catalogue of alarming ghosts. These yokai are skeletal, insectoid, and sometimes, they're just trying to take a peek at you!
