Tomino's Hell
Manage episode 405541735 series 3556632
It was just a dare. A fun game you wanted to play with your friends. They sent you the words, you read them out loud, and now…now you don’t feel so good. It might have been the thing itself, a twisted story about a young boy’s suffering. But it was just a dumb poem, there’s no way it was actually written by some kid (some victim) over 100 years ago, and all that stuff about a curse, that part definitely isn’t true…right?
Tonight we explore Tomino’s Hell, the infamous, cursed Japanese poem that when spoken aloud resigns the reader to a dark fate.
This story is true.
Also featured in tonight’s episode: The worst two sentence horror stories ever written, Jimmy Stewart’s haunted TV, and a theory about whales that blows this whole thing wide open.
