Maybe we took the wrong fork in the path."Ja: ハルトは深く息を吸い込む。En: Haru took a deep breath.Ja: 森の香りが心を落ち着けてくれる気がした。En: The forest scent seemed to calm his mind.Ja: 「このまま進むべきだよ。僕の直感がそう言ってるんだ。」En: "We should keep going. My intuition is telling me so."Ja: 「直感？」ケントは首をかしげる。En: "Intuition?" Kento tilted his head.Ja: 彼は計画を大切にしていた。En: He valued planning.Ja: 「もっと確実な方法がいいんじゃない？」En: "Wouldn't a more certain method be better?"Ja: アイカは微笑みながらフォローする。En: Aika followed with a smile.Ja: 「でも、ハルトの直感を信じてもいいんじゃない？この森の中で何かを感じ取るのはいいことかもしれない。」En: "But isn't it okay to trust Haru's intuition? It might be good to sense something in this forest."Ja: 彼らが迷いつつも進むうちに、天空に黒い雲が集まり始めた。En: While they were hesitantly moving forward, black clouds began gathering in the sky.Ja: 「嵐だ」とケントが言う。En: "A storm," Kento said.Ja: 「早く避難所を探さなきゃ。」En: "We need to find shelter quickly."Ja: ハルトは心の中で葛藤する。En: Haru wavered internally.Ja: 自分の判断が本当に正しいのか。En: Was his decision really the right one?Ja: じっと考えてから、彼は仲間を導く決意をする。En: After pondering silently, he decided to lead his companions.Ja: 「こっちだ。僕に付いてきて。」En: "This way. Follow me."Ja: 雨が降り始める前に、彼らは突然、木に付けられた古い道標を見つけた。En: Before the rain began falling, they suddenly found an old signpost attached to a tree.Ja: 「ここだ！」ハルトの声が歓びに満ちていた。En: "Here it is!" Haru's voice was full of joy.Ja: 道標に従ってしばらく進むと、開けた場所に出た。En: Following the signpost for a while, they came out into an open space.Ja: 無事に森を抜け、道の先に待っていたのは現実の世界だった。En: Safely out of the forest, waiting beyond the path was the real world.Ja: 「やったね、ハルト！」アイカが明るい声で叫ぶ。En: "We did it, Haru!" Aika shouted in a bright voice.Ja: 「君のおかげで無事に出られた。」En: "Thanks to you, we got out safely."Ja: ケントも微笑んで言う。「今回ばかりは直感に感謝だな。」En: Kento also smiled and said, "This time, I'm grateful for intuition."Ja: その日の冒険を通じて、ハルトは自分の判断力に自信を持てるようになった。En: Through their adventure that day, Haru gained confidence in his decision-making ability.Ja: 友達と共に笑いながら、彼は次の挑戦を考え始めていた。En: Laughing with his friends, he began thinking about the next challenge.Ja: 青木ヶ原の不思議な力が、新しい自分を見つけるきっかけをくれたのかもしれない。En: Perhaps the mysterious power of Aokigahara had given him the chance to find a new self.

Fluent Fiction - Japanese: Rediscovering Bonds: Two Paths Converge in Aokigahara Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ja/episode/2026-07-09-22-34-02-ja Story Transcript:Ja: 夏の日差しが木々の隙間から差し込む。En: The summer sunlight streamed through the gaps in the trees.Ja: ハルトは、一歩ずつ青木ヶ原の森の中を進む。En: Haruto advanced step by step into the forest of Aokigahara.Ja: 彼の心はドキドキと高鳴る。En: His heart pounded with excitement.Ja: 子供のころ、彼とレンはこの森で秘密の基地を作った。En: When he was a child, he and Ren built a secret base in this forest.Ja: あれから何年も経ったが、今でもその場所を思い出す。En: Many years have passed since then, but he still remembers that place.Ja: ハルトは大きく息を吸い込み、その思い出の香りを感じる。En: Haruto took a deep breath, sensing the aroma of his memories.Ja: 木の香り、土の湿気、それらが彼を過去へと引き戻す。En: The scent of the trees and the dampness of the soil drew him back to the past.Ja: しかし、彼の心には不安もある。En: However, his heart also held anxiety.Ja: レンと再会するのは久しぶりだ。En: It had been a long time since he last reunited with Ren.Ja: 彼らは今でも同じ友情を共有しているのだろうか。En: Did they still share the same friendship?Ja: 森林の道は狭く、草が繁茂している。En: The forest path was narrow and overgrown with grass.Ja: ハルトは足元に気を付けながら歩みを進める。En: Haruto walked carefully, watching his step.Ja: 森は時に迷路のようだ。En: The forest sometimes seemed like a maze.Ja: しかし彼の目指す場所は、心の中にしっかりと刻まれている。En: But the place he was aiming for was firmly etched in his mind.Ja: ようやく、秘密の基地にたどり着いた。En: Finally, he arrived at the secret base.Ja: そこは子供のころと変わらない。En: It was unchanged from when they were children.Ja: しかし、彼自身もレンも変わった。En: However, both he and Ren have changed.Ja: ハルトは慎重に辺りを見回すと、レンの姿が目に入った。En: Haruto cautiously looked around, and his eyes caught sight of Ren.Ja: 「レン！」ハルトは声を張り上げた。En: "Ren!" Haruto shouted.Ja: レンは振り返り、微笑んだ。En: Ren turned around and smiled.Ja: 「ハルト、久しぶり。元気だった？」En: "Haruto, long time no see. How have you been?"Ja: 最初はぎこちなかったが、互いの近況を話すうちに、少しずつ打ち解けていく。En: At first, it was awkward, but as they talked about each other's recent lives, they gradually started to open up.Ja: しかし、話が深まるにつれ、二人の間に沈黙が訪れた。En: However, as the conversation deepened, silence fell between them.Ja: 人生の選択が彼らを異なる道へ導いたことを感じる。En: They sensed that life's choices had led them on different paths.Ja: 「私たちは変わったね」とレンが静かに言った。En: "We've changed, haven't we?"

Med hjälp av författaren Kathy Acker, youtubern Logan Paul och en dödlig sjukdom som liknats vid en blomma, reflekterar Elis Burrau över det som nästan dödar en, och får en att överleva. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Först sänd 2018-08-30.Nyheten om youtubern Logan Pauls makabra reality show-promenad genom den japanska ”självmordsskogen” Aokigahara, når mig samtidigt som jag avslutar Chris Kraus biografi över den experimentella författaren Kathy Acker. Hans groteska fnitter vid åsynen av liket. De blanka sidorna i slutet. Jag ligger i en säng i Tokyo. En mindre jordbävning får hela lägenhetskomplexet att skaka.Det blottas en avgrund varje gång en människa förhåller sig till döden. Jag tänker inte närma mig självmordet nu, men kanske sen. Via den lilla döden. Och nej, jag syftar inte på orgasmen nu. Jag tänker på det som dödar kroppen ”litegrann” med överlevnad som motiv. Döden som får dig att överleva.Cancer är ett paraplybegrepp, men vi som befinner oss inuti koncernen får generalisera. Jag läser ut Chris Kraus biografi ”After Kathy Acker” motvilligt. Den är ljuvligt skvallrig. Det är årets första dag, i den aggressivt luftkonditionerade lägenheten vi hyr i Togoshi-Ginza, och jag läser ut den motvilligt eftersom jag inte vill att hon ska dö i cancer. Det etableras redan i början av biografin: hon ska dö i cancer. Och det etablerades i ”det verkliga livet”. Hon dog i cancer 1997 i Tijuana, Mexiko. Det var ingen överraskning. 22 dagar efter De dödas dag. Hon dog omgiven av s.k. vetenskapsvidrig alternativ medicin och skolbarnsanteckningsblock som hon var alldeles för svag för att skriva i. Omgiven av s.k. vänner. Olika skelett. Varierande grader av skörhet. Redaktörer. Älskare. Helare. All död är stringent. Och den alternativa medicinen var väl inte särskilt vetenskapsvidrig när jag tänker efter. Den var lojt vetenskapsvidrig och den injicerade hopp.Jag återkommer ofta till Kathy Acker vars författarskap jag kanske läst lite för respektlöst, med en bristande koncentration och stor rastlöshet (ibland irritation). Hennes böcker har verkligen stört och inspirerat mig. Det visionära användandet av lögnen och biografin har ofta rört mig till tårar. Respekten inför hennes gärning är liksom grundmurad och lika stor som respektlösheten i min läsning. Allt det där som ekar. Det är ekot från en ängel. Men nu ska det inte handla om ett komplext författarskaps storvulna intelligens. Det ska handla litegrann om att vilja döda sin kropp med ”goda intentioner”. Goda elakartade intentioner. Göra sin kropp starkare. Förgöra det sjuka och det friska. Förföra det sjuka och det friska. Metodiskt. Det ska handla om det som återkommer. Det ska absolut inte handla om självmordet, men kanske lite. Döden är bara en barnsjukdom. Så kommer det vara tills våra barnbarnsbarn är döda. Därefter blir det andra bullar. Så kommer det att vara och så kommer det att bli. Jag läser orden ”stiliserad bild av harakirisituation”, det är en bildtext, research. Det är svårt att inte tänka på Harry Martinsson. Med ett visst referensbibliotek i ryggmärgen är det svårt att inte tänka på Harry Martinsson. Cancer är ett paraplybegrepp, men vi som befinner oss inuti koncernen får generalisera. Jag tycker verkligen att jag får skämta om barncancer eftersom jag haft cancer som barn. Det låter kanske märkligt. Min enda stoiska övertygelse. När det verkligen gäller. Jag återkommer ofta till Kathy Acker men också till cancer, rent tematiskt, i min egen litterära praktik och det har jag faktiskt slutat skämmas för. Det är kanske det enda tolkningsföreträdet av ”värde” jag äger med någorlunda gott samvete. Och jag har bestämt mig för att vattna ur det. Nu har jag bestämt mig! Jag bestämde mig nyss. Jag skäms fortfarande för skämten, men jag måste välja en riktning. Jag ska vattna ur sjukdomen som naturligtvis förändrade mitt liv, mest på grund av hur människor i min omgivning agerade (mer än de ”galopperande cystorna” i min lekamen). Jag ska vattna ur sjukdomen som tog livet av Kathy Acker. Hon visste att kroppen behövde krossas för att kunna resa sig. Dödas lite. Det handlade om upprepning.De så kallade vännerna (bredvid min sjuksäng) var verkligen bra vänner. Fina vänner. Goda vänner med snygg benstomme. Som jag illa kvickt sa upp all kontakt med. Sen började jag skildra. Det finns en inbyggd ära i självmordet. Missförstå mig rätt. Jag inbillar mig detta eftersom Thomas Bernhard skriver att äran är pervers. Med ett visst referensbibliotek i ryggmärgen är det svårt att inte tänka på Thomas Bernhards priser i tider som dessa. Kathy Acker var för en nedbrytning av kroppen när det kom till träning. Hon ”lyfte skrot” stundtals besatt. Hennes metod var att systematiskt förstöra kroppen så att den tvingas bygga upp sig själv igen, starkare. Hon visste att kroppen behövde krossas för att kunna resa sig. Dödas lite. Det handlade om upprepning. Tappa bort sig själv som en aktiv handling bland repetitioner. I matematik. Ett hypnotiserat subjekt i dödkött som fortsätter när räkningen gått förlorad. Man kan tycka att hon enligt samma rationella doktrin borde varit för den skenbart kontrollerade nedbrytningen av kroppen, eller förgiftningen, i medicinskt syfte. Jag talar om cellgift. Det var hon inte. Hon ville inte utnyttja samma princip för att överleva. Att göra kroppen starkare, okej, men att överleva… nej, Kathy Acker ville hellre få i uppdrag av självutnämnda helare att hitta ett specifikt barndomstrauma, en orsak till cancern, ”då skulle den försvinna” – vilket den gjorde. Vilket den inte gjorde. Men hon trodde det. Att den gjorde det. Personligen gillade jag cellgift när jag fick det insprutat i kroppen. Indroppat. I ryggmärgen och bröstet. Mest på grund av hela gift-grejen. Illamåendet. Viktraset, min spegelbild. Inte så mycket på grund av det injicerade hoppet. Det var mer av en positiv bieffekt. Men jag gillade verkligen giftet på ett konceptuellt plan. Rent konceptuellt. Smutsigt.Kathy Acker var inte konsekvent och det gillar jag. Jag är inte konsekvent och det gillar jag, ibland. En annan tanke är att Thomas Bernhard hade haft lika lite att säga om Svenska Akademin kris som om Aviciis död. Lika lite kan betyda ganska mycket. Förlåt, det är ryggmärgens referensbibliotek som läcker sin giftiga spekulation.Jag har beskrivit cancer som en blomma i en dikt. Det är jag stolt över. Den stringenta döden slår ut det mesta.I en annan värld hade självmordsskogen varit en skog för självmord och löpning och det hade varit lika sorgligt men lika sant. Youtubern Logan Paul hade kanske sprungit utan att filma. Han hade kanske sprungit mot sin död. Vilken monumental respekt. Jag läser att han ska sluta posta videor på daglig basis. Den japanska poeten Hiromi Itō har skrivit en dikt som heter ”Killing Kanoko”, i engelsk översättning. Kanoko är Hiromi Itōs dotter. Det är research. Jag har beskrivit cancer som en blomma i en dikt. Det är jag stolt över. Den stringenta döden slår ut det mesta. I dagsläget: allt. Blomman som slår ut i alla som finns, när alla är borta. Du kollar på en dokumentär om ”självmordsskogen”. På andra sidan sängen. Det är långt bort. Sängen delas av en spricka. Vi var med om en liten jordbävning igår. Hela lägenhetskomplexet skakade.Jag tänker på en utslagen blomma, helt utslagen. En avslagen blomma, helt avslagen. Som cancerogen lightläsk. När jag varit nära döden har jag bara kunnat skämta. Jag har bara kunnat skämta om mig själv.Elis Monteverde Burrau, författare

It was Akira and Yumi.Ja: 彼らはハルトのところに駆け寄り、すぐに助けてくれた。En: They rushed over to him and immediately helped.Ja: アキラは速やかに助けを呼び、ユミはハルトに優しく声をかけた。En: Akira quickly called for help, while Yumi spoke gently to Haru.Ja: 「大丈夫、一緒にいます。」En: 'It's okay, we're with you.'Ja: 森の密やかな美しさの中で、ハルトは二人に支えられながら、少しずつ呼吸を取り戻した。En: In the secret beauty of the forest, supported by these two, Haru gradually regained his breath.Ja: なんとか回復すると、彼は心から感謝した。En: Once he recovered, he thanked them sincerely.Ja: 「ありがとう、本当にありがとう。」En: 'Thank you, truly, thank you.'Ja: その日、ハルトは大切なことを学んだ。En: That day, Haru learned something important.Ja: 弱さを隠すことは強さではない。En: Hiding one's weakness is not strength.Ja: むしろ、助け合うことで本当の強さが生まれるのだ。En: Rather, true strength arises from helping each other.Ja: 森は静かにささやいているようだった。「一人ではなく、共に歩むことの大切さを。」En: It seemed as if the forest was whispering quietly, 'The importance of walking together, not alone.'Ja: 青木ヶ原の森はまた静かに揺れていた。En: Once again, the Aokigahara forest swayed quietly.Ja: ハルトは、もう一度深く息を吸い込み、心を軽くしながら、彼を助けてくれた新しい友人たちと共に森を後にした。En: Haru took another deep breath, feeling lighter at heart, as he left the forest together with his new friends who had helped him.

Haruka sat down by a tree and took a deep breath.Ja: 」「ちょっと休むわ…」遥かは木のそばに腰を下ろし、深呼吸しました。En: She wanted to enjoy the beauty of the forest, but she couldn't ignore her body's signals.Ja: 彼女は森の美しさを楽しみたかったのですが、体のサインを無視することはできませんでした。En: Yuto gently held her hand and said, "Don't push yourself.Ja: 優斗は、彼女の手を優しく握り、「無理しないで、少し休んでから考えよう」と言いました。En: Let's think about it after you rest a bit."Ja: 遥かは静かにうなずき、しばらく森の中で目を閉じて休みました。En: Haruka nodded quietly and rested with her eyes closed in the forest for a while.Ja: 鳥たちのさえずりが優しく彼女を落ち着かせました。En: The gentle chirping of the birds calmed her down.Ja: 「優斗、ありがとう」と遥かは彼を見上げて微笑んで言いました。En: "Thank you, Yuto," Haruka looked up at him with a smile.Ja: 「君のおかげで、無理せずちゃんと休めることができたわ。En: "Because of you, I was able to rest properly without overexerting myself.Ja: これからは、ちゃんと自分の体の声を聞くね。En: From now on, I'll listen to my body's signals."Ja: 」優斗は安心したように笑いました。En: Yuto smiled with relief.Ja: 「一緒に歩ける距離が長くなるよ。En: "That way, we'll be able to walk longer distances together.Ja: 無理しないことが大事だ。En: It's important not to overdo it."Ja: 」彼らはゆっくりと森を下り、遥かは心から自然の美しさを楽しみながらも、自分の健康も大切にすることを学びました。En: They slowly descended the forest, and Haruka learned to cherish both the beauty of nature and her health from the bottom of her heart.Ja: 優斗との信頼関係も深まり、二人はこれからも一緒に、無理のないペースで冒険を続けることを決めました。En: The trust between Yuto and Haruka deepened, and they decided to continue their adventures at a pace that was comfortable for both.Ja: 春の森は新たな始まりを象徴するように、二人の新たな絆を包み込みました。En: Like the spring forest symbolizing a new beginning, the forest embraced their newfound bond.

⁠Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! In this episode, we'll delve into the mystery of Aokigahara, known in Japanese as the Sea of Trees—and to the rest of the world as the Suicide Forest. After the Golden Gate Bridge, it is the second most popular suicide destination in the world.  The forest is over a thousand years old. It grew over lava floes laid down in a devastating volcanic eruption on the slopes of Mt. Fuji, a holy mountain believed to be a gateway to the spirit world. Perhaps this is why it's said to be the birthplace of the Yurei—a ghost in Japanese folklore created out of deep trauma.  It's no wonder Aokigahara is associated with death. But the forest is also filled with life and incredible natural wonders. Join us as we explore the haunting history and folklore of Aokigahara.

Contentwarnung: Suizid | Creepypasta auf Deutsch: Vieleunheimliche Erzählungen ranken sich um den Aokigahara Wald... Ich möchte damit beginnen klarzustellen, dass ich es nicht geplant hatte, hierher zu kommen. Meine Neigung zum Spielen hat mich hier hineingeritten. Bevor ich zu weitvorgreife, lass es mich ausführlich erklären. Zu Silvester waren mein Kumpel und ich ziemlich betrunken und er erzählte mir von Aokigahara. Er erzählte mir die Horrorgeschichten über die Todesfälle, die Erhängten und ich dachte, dass er nur Scheiße redet. Als ich ihm das so gesagt habe, wettete er mit mir um 600 Dollar, dass ich es keinen Monat in diesem Wald aushalten würde. Trotz besseren Wissens stimmte ich zu und nahm den nächsten Flug nach Japan._______________________________________Autor: JJsPastaHier kannst du die Geschichte nachlesen:http://www.creepypasta.org/creepypasta/aokigahara-diary Übersetzung: Rasha Ruby_______________________________________ Mehr von Kati: https://linktr.ee/katiwinter und auf meinem YouTube-Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Kati.Winter

Conceptual photographer Hrair Sarkissian moves between Syria, Armenia, and Turkey, capturing present absences in personal and political histories in the 20th and 21st centuries.Hrair Sarkissian uses photography, installation, moving image, and sound to reflect on social issues, often silenced or obscured from view. Born and raised in Syria, the grandson of refugees of the Armenian Genocide in 1915, much of his work explores the lived experiences of intergenerational trauma, with respect to individuals and diverse diasporic communities.Sweet & Sour (2021-2022), a three-channel video installation currently on view at Wolverhampton Art Gallery, reflects on memory and storytelling. Hrair discusses the significance of the Maruta Mountain in Armenian culture, and shares images of his ancestral home of Khantsorig, a village in the Sassoun region of present-day Turkey. We also explore the role of emotion and subjectivity in his practice, contrasting his approach to series like Last Seen (2018-2021) with the more detached, extractive approaches typical of photojournalism.Hrair explains his early training at his father's photographic studio in Damascus, and the role of Armenians in the development of studio photography in Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. With Sea of Trees (2025), we move between Hrair's exhibition environments to the volcanic Aokigahara forest on Mount Fuji, discussing how different cultural narratives and contexts have inspired his artistic practice. We look towards new works in production for an international art festival in Japan, and suggest of the long-term creative relationships within his own career that also connect times, places, and migrations - returning to Wolverhampton with Deathscape (2021), an audio installation for British Art Show 9 in 2021.Hrair Sarkissian: Other Pains is at Wolverhampton Art Gallery until 22 June 2025. You can hear the artist in conversation at the gallery on Saturday 14 June.Finding My Blue Sky, curated by Dr. Omar Kholeif, is at Lisson Gallery in London until 26 July 2025.The Aichi Triennale 2025: A Time Between Ashes and Roses, curated by Hoor Al-Qasimi, opens in Japan on 13 September 2025.For more about Mahmoud Darwish, read about Miloš Trakilović's installation 564 Tracks (Not a Love Song Is Usually a Love Song) (2024) at KW Institute in Berlin, in the New Internationalist: newint.org/art/2025/spotlight-milos-trakilovicFor more about diasporic communities in Lebanon and Syria, listen to Sara Shamma's live episode on World Civil War Portraits (2015) with Dulwich Picture Gallery in London, and the National Museum of Damascus, part of ⁠PEACE FREQUENCIES 2023⁠: pod.link/1533637675/episode/6c9af892a1a8e1450c2cc4b73f226835For more about studio photography in Palestine through the Ottoman Empire and British Mandate, hear curator Rachel Dedman's EMPIRE LINES episode about an UNRWA Dress from Ramallah, Palestine (1930s)⁠: pod.link/1533637675/episode/92c34d07be80fe43a8e328705a7d80cbAnd read into the exhibition, Material Power: Palestinian Embroidery, at Kettle's Yard in Cambridge and the Whitworth in Manchester, in gowithYamo: gowithyamo.com/blog/textiles-in-cambridge-palestinian-embroidery-at-kettles-yardPRODUCER: Jelena Sofronijevic.Follow EMPIRE LINES on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/empirelinespodcast⁠⁠⁠Support EMPIRE LINES on Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/empirelines

En doft av våt jord hänger i luften. Det enda som hörs är löven som prasslar under fötterna på den mosstäckta stigen. Träden står tätt, och ett dämpat, smaragdgrönt ljus letar sig in mellan grenverken. Det är nästan sagolikt.Men längre fram på stigen ligger ett avskuret rep – en kuslig påminnelse om vad som döljer sig bakom den stillsamma skönheten. Berättelserna har fått lokalbor att hålla sig borta sedan barnsben, men lockat turister från hela världen. Det är berättelser om spöklika röster som ekar mellan träden och viskningar som lockar dig djupare in i den mörka skogen. Enligt legenden vilar mäktiga andar här – tysta, men ständigt redo att ta sig in i vår värld.Fall: Aokigahara[REKLAM] Länk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/spoktimmenLänkar för dig som har självmordstankar & till dig som är anhörig:https://ki.se/nasp/information-och-stod/hjalplinjer-och-stodhttps://mind.se/stod-kunskap/prata-eller-chatta-med-volontar/sjalvmordslinjen/https://suicidezero.se/hjalp-och-rad/Berättelsen från RedditMusik”Come out and play” av DesperateMeasurezhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/legalcode Källor: https://www.spoktimmen.se/200-2KontaktInstagram: @spoktimmen@linnek@jennyborg91 Facebook: Spöktimmen Mail: spoktimmenpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Le Japon compte un taux de suicide très élevé par rapport au reste de la planète. Là-bas, se donner la mort est vu comme un moyen de retrouver son honneur perdu. Et pour les Japonais, un lieu paraît plus évident que d'autres pour en finir avec la vie… une forêt aux nombreuses légendes. Son nom : Aokigahara. Entre beauté des paysages et ambiance des plus étranges, découvrez sa True Story. Une forêt unique La forêt Aokigahara, surnommée Jukai ou “la mer d'arbres” se situe au Japon, au pied du mont Fuji. Elle s'étend sur 35 km2. Née en 864 d'une coulée de lave de la célèbre montagne, elle repose sur un sol rocheux et couvert de mousse. Les bulles de gaz rejetées par la lave lors de la phase de solidification ont laissé sur leurs pas des cavités parfois profondes de plusieurs mètres et autres obstacles rocheux. De nombreuses espèces vivent dans ces bois, parmi elles des cerfs, des renards, des chauves-souris, ou encore des écureuils du Japon. Bien sûr, on y trouve aussi une multitude de végétaux, comme le pin emblématique du Japon, qu'on appelle aussi le Pruche. A l'ambiance inquiétante L'ambiance qui y règne semble assez étrange… on peut y observer de nombreux arbres enroulés autour de la pierre volcanique, des branches entrelacées et des racines qui rampent sous la mousse. Comme si la nature avait pris possession des lieux… Il y fait sombre, très sombre… En effet, les épais feuillages empêchent la lumière de passer. Ce qui rend l'ambiance encore plus inquiétante. Et pour renforcer cette étrange atmosphère, les sédiments rocheux absorbent les sons et rendent la forêt presque silencieuse. Le sentiment d'isolement y est très intense… Une ambiance renforcée par les nombreuses légendes qui entourent la forêt....

Welcome Back B-oo's Crew! This we week we take on the sensitive topic of Aokigahara, Japans suicide forest also known as "The Black Sea Of Trees!" Located in Honshu Japan, this location has signs of human life as far back as 35,000 years ago with some speculating even farther back than that. It was also the main target of the Doolittle air raid, destroying 10,000 acres and leaving more than one million people homeless. The forest located at the base of Mt. Fuji has become a popular suicide destination seemingly do to a popular Japanese book calling it, "The best place to die!" The issue has gotten so bad that the Japanese government has had to be creative in how they combat the unfortunate occurrences here. With a horrific 18 out of 100,000 suicide rate and, finding 30 to 100 bodies here a year, its clear how this place could be haunted! Ge ready B-oo's crew...this one will change your views on a nice forest walk!Do you have a story you'd like read or played on the show?

Brothers J and Eric the Matthew McConaughey, Ken Watanabe, Naomi Watts film Sea of Trees. It's kind of a bummer. But the brothers take some deep early tangents into the Aokigahara forest itself, the Aoki family (Devon, Steve, and Rocky), underground teppanyaki performance artist chefs, and memories of the fast casual chain restaurant Skippers.   Technical note: J's audio is pretty bad. It's understandable but not ideal. The conversation will hopefully carry you through.   File length 1:01:21 File Size 45.2 MB Theme by Jul Big Green via SongFinch Subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts Listen to us on Stitcher Like us on Facebook Follow us on Twitter Send your comments to show@notinacreepyway.com Visit the show website at Not In A Creepy Way

As the world continues to pray for the Japanese people, Edge of Wonder decided to honor the rich cultural history of legends and supernatural events that go far back into Japan's past. From cryptids like the evil dragon of Lake Ashinoko to mysterious encounters on Mt. Fuji, from myths and monsters to traditional folklore, there's a lot to be amazed about when it comes to the island nation. Join Ben and Rob as they discuss the Colonel Sanders Curse, whether “dog men” have been spotted in Japan, and the true history of geisha performers that western societies have misunderstood. Let's highlight all the positive, strange, and interesting facts most foreigners never knew about Japanese history. In this episode: Intense weather is definitely part of Japan's history—and so are their legends. Have you ever heard of the Colonel Sanders Curse? Why is Kentucky Fried Chicken wielding power over the Japanese people? Legends and stories are deeply ingrained in Japanese culture, but their deep traditions also go far back into history. Just take the geisha performers, who you might not know rub elbows with some of the most elite members of society. Dive deeper into some of the country's strangest legends. Mt. Fuji, for one, is one of the most interesting places on Earth, with stories of a fire goddess, a suicide forest (Aokigahara, or the Sea of Trees), hauntings, and more that will really make you wonder what's going on near that famous volcano.

TRIGGER WARNING-Discussion of suicide, please use discretion. At the base of Mount Fuji, in Japan there is a forest, that is known to lure the sad and lost visitors off of the path, and into the depth of the forest, where they end up taking their own lives.  Media has stopped reporting on how many complete suicide in Aokigahara, in hopes of stopping those who have romanticized the idea, and seek out the forest to spend their last hours on earth. Even still, there is an annual walk through of the forest where, police, volunteers and reporters go and look to bring home the bodies of those who followed through with their plan, in order to give their families some peace.  Even, without reports, it is still estimated that over 100 people per year end there lives, under the eerily quiet canopy of tree.  Is it just the serenity and calm of the woods that make this the place that people want to spend their last moments?  or is it something more sinister?Support the showIf you're interested in receiving bonus episodes, early release dates, an everything scary sticker and ‘thank you' as well as a shout out on our regular feed!

TW: Discussions of suicide   Aokigahara, a dense forest in Japan, is the setting for a surprising number of cases of suicide every year. Why Aokigahara? Some people think that it's due to the high rate of suicide in Japan in general, others believe the forest is host to miserable spirits that draw other unhappy people into its depths. In this episode, we discuss Aokigahara and the history of suicide in Japan.

Every year, dozens of people travel to Aokigahara to take their lives. But why? This week, we discuss the dark Japanese folklore and sinister realities behind one of the world's most tragically disturbing places…
