The sun is out and the sky turns dark.
While people go into their houses and start having dinner, other living things come out of the dark. They are animals, they are insects, or ... they could be some things that are not actually living.
In Japan, people believe that ghosts, spirits and Yokai (supernatural monsters in Japanese folk tales) come out after sunset. In the past, Japanese people would call the time of dusk "Omagatoki", which literally means the time when you seem to see Yokai and ghosts.
If you've never heard of the Japanese word Omagatoki, you will never forget it from now on.
I assume that you have just googled scary YouTube videos or something of Japan, and ended up this page. So presumably you're a horror fan that's got some interests in Japan.
Alright, you will probably find your favourite YouTube channel today.
A Japanese ghost hunting channel Omagatoki FILM,
（Japanese horror entertainment）Omagatoki FILM - YouTube
this channel is my favourite and the one you are probably going to be addicted to watching like I am.
Omagatoki FILM is one of the fastest growing horror channels in Japan — launched in 21st of January 2020, and now (17 Feb 2021), after one year and one month, it boasts 155K subscribers. The channel brings you high quality horror entertainment with their spooky videos.
By the way, although the videos of the channel are hosted by Japanese guys, Hiro, Tomo and T, English subtitles are added to some of the videos. And apparently, the channel constantly catch up with the subtitles for the rest of the videos.
So, as long as you understand English, you can enjoy watching them — actually you don't even need subtitles to be freaked out though.
Because of the high quality of the spine-chilling videos, I really recommend Omagatoki FILM to all horror fans in the world.
Here are the reasons why the channel keeps you up at night.
Why is Omagatoki FILM so special?
Crazy Solo investigation
The channel is so crazy that they do solo investigations almost all the time. And the places where they do the investigations are insane — not only at the scary places, but at the most haunted spots like exactly where somebody was murdered or committed suicide.
If I were to do the investigations solo there, I would faint out of fear straightaway.
The Small Group
Just two or three of them go to haunted places in the middle of the night, which makes the videos freaking scary. Sometimes not even two, but only one of them goes to explore.
There's a possibility, though, that somebody else (ghosts or whatever) is there, and the presence of somebody else could be watching their solo exploring behind them.
Something Caught on Camera very often
People say "they've got good luck", or rather bad luck. That's because almost all the time when they film their videos, spooky things happen. Not only they hear ghosts' voice and footsteps, but also they run into more creepy paranormal events.
You should watch those videos and find out what they are.
Frightening Secret Spots
The best feature of Omagatoki FILM is the exploring haunted places that's not well known. Instead of just going to the famous scary spots, they also find secret places that are extremely terrifying and go to explore.
The channel wants the viewers to give them more information of scary spots, so you can give them horrific secret sites that you've heard of. They might go and explore there even if the places you tell them are oversea.
Discussion of the Paranormal
Their videos are not like just going to the places, shooting, and finishing the videos. At the end of the videos, they always try to figure out why the creepy things happened to them, what had happened there before, and what do the spirits want to tell them.
So after you watch the videos, you are convinced of the reason for the paranormal events, so that you might be able to sleep better.
TOP 3 Scary Videos
Before I finish writing, I will introduce you to three featured videos of the channel
1. Paranormal Investigation at the Haunted Off Limits Room
A woman client requested them to investigate an abandoned house where there's a off-limits room. They went into the off-limits room for the first time in decades, and they ran into a lot of creepy things beyond imagination.
2. One Week Stay Challenge in the the Stigmatised Room
They heard that there's a room which is connected with two murders, and nobody hasn't been able to live in the room over a week ever since.
One of their members Tomo went to visit the room and tried to stay for a week.
You will see if he can stay in there for a week.
3. Ghost Investigation in the cursed cave "The Thirteen Buddhas"
They went to the abandoned cave called the Thirteen Buddhas (which is called Jusanbutsu in Japan). It is notoriously believed that the cave is cursed and the most haunted place in Japan. In the video, weird things happen to them, which you probably can't believe.
