The Ghost of Yotsuya (Japanese: 四谷怪談, Hepburn: Yotsuya kaidan) is a 1959 Japanese horror film directed by Kenji Misumi. It is one of the many pieces of Japanese media that adapts the kabuki play Yotsuya Kaidan, including a twin release with a Shintoho film of the same name released in 1959.
The film follows the plot of the original play, but shifts the characters to make a more unique retelling of the story.[1]
