Heads up! This week we have a ghost story from Japan featuring the nosiest Yokai on this side of the Pacific - the Rokurokubi. Prepare to learn about what really happens to people who crane their necks to listen on the hot goss. But don’t worry about those long necks, it’s the Nukekubi you really gotta watch out for. It’s samurai monk up to bat against bouncing head ghosts.
