H...haunted?!

[sparkywolf]

Just watched a video describing a forest where people come to die, mostly by suicide. Aokigahara Forest is known as the second most favorite place for suicides after the Golden Gate bridge. O.o It's also haunted by ghosts, or so it's believed, and someone online wrote about how others told her she had been possessed by a spirit of a man who had died next to the tree she was standing close to, though she does not remember anything when this happened.

It's seriously creepy, but the forest is so beautiful. Today it is still open to the public but it is advised you stay on the marked trails so you don't get lost...or stumble upon a decomposing body. Or worse, get possessed, or see ghosts flying around.

Sparky if I have nightmares tonight I am so blaming you! >_<

That is both creepy and sad. :(

Oops. ^^; I blame Tumblr for linking to this video. Sorry.

Yeah, it's pretty sad.

[kael1030.livejournal.com]

Its okay. :)
It was interesting to listen too though really sad. I don't think I could of been that calm if I found a deceased body. :(
Poor people.

Yeah, poor folks. I'm sorry to hear they didn't think life was worth living and so decided to kill themselves. D:

I hope that some of the people that go there are found before its to late and are helped to change their mind. All life is worth living. Its just remembering that is hard sometimes. D:

Saw this on Tumblr and found it really fascinating. The first thing it made me think of was Battle Royale actually.

I would love to visit here someday. :)

Kind of. I can't stand zombies and skeletons, especially if they're covered in gore. D:

I know, right? I would be scared like heck.

You're welcome. It is sad. I got a little tearful when they showed the flowers left behind by surviving relatives or friends who wanted to remember the person who committed suicide. You really don't die alone.

I saw pics of this on Tumblr last night, looked through them, and then BOOM DECOMPOSING DEAD GUY FACE! D: *shrieks* But wow, this is one of those morbidly fascinating kinds of places. But I'd be too afraid of stumbling across a newly departed person's corpse to go for a nice stroll.

I know, right? Creepy!

It is fascinating, though, yeah, I would never want to actually go there for a walk either.

Watching this video..only reaffirmed my passion to help people and be a counsellor.
