Clickbait-y title/opening aside, this is a fascinating place that’s so much more than “it’s creepy/haunted”. People LIVE here. There’s a community inside with shops and barbers and all that.

@rakyat @cafe Still waiting for someone to pay me to stay at a 'haunted' place.
Try looking up property listings of so-called haunted places. They still go for millions.

@jkn In Japan some people look for places where people died recently. @cafe

I'm concerned about the liquefied remains of the recently deceased soaking into the house more than any hauntings. Those can actually harbour pathogens.

@ruk_n_rul There are apparently companies and volunteers who specialize in cleaning a house after deaths. I’ve a bit of a morbid curiousity so I know how messy dead bodies can be, lol. @cafe

@rakyat @cafe I've stayed there for 3 months while doing my undergrad/ masters thesis on Highland carrion flies.

Half the time I probably smelled like a corpse, so I didn't have any supernatural encounters.

@rakyat @cafe I do have one ghost story about that place. But my phone battery is low now.

@ubi No worries, ghost story can wait @cafe

@ubi
So I’d assume you were looking for dead animals in the forest?

@rakyat @cafe I was placing the dead animals or bait there and trapping flies and beetles.
