Step into one of Tokyo’s darkest hidden histories in this chilling episode of Supernatural Japan, as we explore Jōkan-ji—infamously known as the “Throw-Away Temple.” Located in the historic Yoshiwara district, this unassuming temple holds the remains of thousands of women, many of them courtesans who lived and died in hardship, disease, and isolation during Japan’s Edo period. We uncover the haunting past of this sacred site, the tragic stories of the forgotten souls buried there, and the eerie ghost sightings that persist to this day. Blending true history, cultural context, and spine-tingling supernatural encounters, this episode reveals why Jōkan-ji is considered one of Japan’s most haunted locations—and why some spirits may never have truly left. Perfect for fans of Japanese folklore, dark history, and real-life hauntings, this is an episode you won’t forget. BRAND NEW Website: supernaturaljapan.com Get lots of Premium and Exclusive Content!
