About this product

Product Information

In Japanese folklore, a ghost that arises from the burial of a pregnant woman is called an Ubume. In the first of the Kyogokudo series, the hero Kyogokudo is an exorcist with a twist: he doesn't believe in ghosts. To circumnavigate his clients' inability to come to grips with their own problems, he creates fake supernatural explanations that he exorcises with staged rituals. In his first adventure, Kyogokudo must unravel the mystery of a woman who's been pregnant for 20 months and find her husband, who disappeared two months into her pregnancy.
