Japanese 2ch Ghost Story | Hachishaku-sama 👒 ④

The new profile picture is so cute! I fell asleep with the TV on without realizing it. I woke up a little past 1 AM. Then I heard from the window: *Tap, tap.* It sounded like someone was gently knocking on the window. I desperately told myself it was just the wind, and even turned up the TV volume. Not long after— I heard my grandfather's voice from outside the door. "Hey— are you okay?" "If you're scared, you don't have to force yourself." The voice sounded exactly like my grandfather. I almost walked to the door. Then I heard again: "What's wrong?" "You can come over here too." For some reason, in that moment, I was absolutely sure. The person outside the door was not my grandfather. I looked back at the four corners of the room. The salt, which had been white, was already starting to turn black. I immediately ran to the Buddhist statue and prayed while holding a charm. Then— "Popopop, po, popo..." That sound occurred. The knocking on the window also became more distinct. I couldn't do anything but keep praying. When I woke up again, it was already around 7:13 AM. The room was quiet. However, the salt in the four corners had become even blacker than the night before. But it wasn't over. I had only survived one night. Now I have to escape this area while being pursued by Hachishaku-sama.
