Science Fiction
In Japan, ju-on is a deadly
curse that takes on a life of
its own. Always seeking new victims,
it’s a grudge that doesn’t stop—it
can’t be stopped. Anyone unfortunate
enough to meet up with a ghost
killed by the grudge is then killed—
and so it spreads. When a senior
citizen outreach volunteer goes to
work in a house in a quiet residential
area, she soon starts to hear odd
noises. As the strange events get
more and more ominous, she discovers
that some acts of violence can attach
themselves to a house and that
some evils can reach out and touch
you—even after death.
Few stories have infl uenced modern
horror as much as Ju-On. The
Japanese fi lms set a new standard
for horror fi lmmaking and storytelling
with their blend of slow-burning
terror and nightmarish imagery. The
novel is just as chilling—and just as
unforgettable.
