Title: You Are Being Noisy¶

Contents:¶
"While working on the series, there has been a recurring spiritual phenomenon in every title. Whenever I stayed over at the office, the spirit of a child would run around at night. It seemed like a boy, judging by his footsteps and voice. He would play tricks throughout the night, knocking over books and papers on my desk if I didn’t pay attention to him. When I would say, “Urusai!”, which means, “you’re being noisy”, the boy would quickly disappear."

In this blog excerpt, Shibata describes a paranormal encounter with a child he had while working on the Fatal Frame series. Ghosts of children feature throughout the Fatal Frame series, and are often depicted playing games similar to hide-and-seek, or tag.
