Tokaido Yotsuya Kaidan

This classic Japanese horror movie directed by Nobuo Nakagawa is based on an 18th-century kabuki masterpiece written by Tsuruya Nanboku. It is about a woman who haunts her husband after she dies a miserable death. The story has terrified the Japanese people for ages, and is probably the most famous ghost story of the Edo period. This particular version is the 1959 Eastman color edition, and likely the most popular and well known film version of this story.
