School Ghost Story Collection

Specials derived from a kids' show called the Hankyu Drama Series, a long-running Japanese television drama block produced by Kansai TV and Takarazuka Eizo. The show went on to have several spin-off TV specials, two of which served as prequels to the Ju-On series: 4444444444 and Katasumi (both part of School Ghost Story G).
