Japan's Most HAUNTED School With Missing Children | LOCALS WILL NOT GO HERE (Real Life Horror Movie) 

Who's ready for the Japan series? Japan haunted is far scarier than UK / USA haunted 👻

I’m from Japan. You are braver than most - these abandoned schools, not to mention the dying villages, are FULL of spirits. Japan’s mystic energy is really powerful. I’m sooooo happy you did this! I’ve been watching both you guys for years, hoping someone would come to Japan and do a paranormal investigation. Your evidence is amazing in this video!! Please do more videos in Japan!! ❤ And a side note - there is a difference between temples and shrines. The shrines are for Shintoism, older and connected to power spots. They would be great places to do investigations.

8:58 9:00 9:02 12:12 Orb in motion 12:47 That's so lovely! 🤗🤗 13:12 An orb can be seen (as Josh talks about the ghost!), jus before they hear a screech sound 14:19 Constellations, bro 🌟✨⭐(Orion on the right--note his belt!) 16:50 18:52 Love your enthusiasm, Josh! Subscribed 29:37 That was an audible, direct response! A whispered, 'Yeah' 33:49 36:54 Orb appears from out of the wall 38:23 Note the shiny orb hovering above the stage (near the ceiling) 38:32 Another tiny orb appears 'on stage', and then almost immediately vanishes 38:36 Reappears, and then vanishes again 39:11 Orb seems to emerge from Dan's SLS camera, soaring straight up (the device just shut itself off!) 39:12 Wow! Pale white light (GO FRAME-BY-FRAME: it seems to morph into a face shape!) appears in the window above the SLS screen, far right. It leans forward, turns its head slightly, and then pulls back. It is a very HUMAN movement! 42:37 Wow--what did you guys catch?! Look at the curtain at the back of the stage, and GO FRAME-BY-FRAME again! Two shapes materialize; then disappear; then materialize; and end up flying off to the left! As they leave the room, it almost looks like wings flapping...BUT NEITHER JOSH NOR DAN CLOCKS THE MOVEMENT 45:43 'We need power' 46:07 The Panasonic Voice Recorder's garbled sounds = the spirits are harnessing its power, to communicate! They're conversing underneath all that crackling static. And then? You're rewarded! An EVP, crystal clear: Female voice:: 'HEL-lo!' 😊😊 There follows a two-note musical sound...(remember, you're in a 'theatre' with musical instruments) Male voice: 'You're gonna sail, you're (unclear).' More musical notes... Dan: 'What's that?!?' More musical notes... Female voice: 'Hi' or 'Hai' (Japanese for 'Yes') Male voice:: 'I could never...' Spirit Talker: 'Peace' Male voice: '...it's a tragedy.' JOSH: Thank you for including the entire recording in your video. Subscribed! :D Second Voice Recorder Attempt, but the Spirit Talker cuts to the chase instead: 47:07 'This is my land' 48:22 Josh hears a female voice--not moaning. Crank up the volume: she was speaking. 49:09 On the Voice Recorder, Dan asks, 'Do you want us off your land?' Female voice replies: 'Yes, I do.' 49:37 Josh: 'Do your legs still hurt?' VR reply: 'Hai' 50:38 Orb appears above Josh's head, rising toward the ceiling 50:40 JOSH? Look at the ghostly form rising up from the stage floorboards. GO FRAME-BY-FRAME: IT HEADS STRAIGHT FOR YOUR CAMERA, as the Spirit Talker says, 'Run' 😮😮😲😲😱😱 50:47 Watch the lights/orbs that 'spangle' the curtain at the back of the stage... 51:19 So many orbs in this room--ESPECIALLY THIS ONE! Top of the screen: perfectly round. Transparent--you can see through its light. No insect wings or other protrusions to suggest a living creature. And as for being a dust mote? This particular sphere is going UP, not falling to the floor. 54:06 'Tragedy'--note that this word is spoken by the male voice on the Voice Recorder, related above. That this is emphasized by repetition, is very important.

As a japanese and someone very passionate about the supernatural, I'm super excited for this series! Japan has so many ghost stories and haunted places and this is the first time I'm seeing someone reliable make quality content about it ☺️💖

In my opinion, Japan is the most haunted place ever. I mean if you hear people’s stories it’s just full of things about ghosts and spirits. So I believe you’ll find lots of cool places like this in Japan. So please make more videos of haunted places in japan 😭 One thing i want to point out tho, Japanese language can be tricky sometimes and translating apps aren’t always getting what you want to say correctly. For example: the first sentence you translated said “if there’s anyone left in this school, could you please do your best for me?” And as far as i know, japanese people weren’t really learning english as much before 2000s and children wouldn’t really be learning it at all. So I think it’s better to memorize some words you’d say often like “trapped” or “hurt” or maybe sentences like “make the device go off” or “make a bang” or “we mean no harm” i think it’d be better than relying on translating apps, it’ll be a great help especially if you’re doing really old places and you’d also be able to understand things said in the EVP sessions. Lastly, I hope my comment didn’t bother you in any way. Thank you!

@exploringwithfighters i really love that you all collaborate together with the twins and Wyatt, Seth, Dan, Sam and Colby and you all support and cheer for each other instead of being competitive and jealous of each other and bringing each other down. Well done raising each other up and supporting each other. Love that. Great video as always

Literally 20 minutes in and I’m LOVIN this series already,this is straight out of a Japanese horror movie FOR SURE,I’m fully invested and definitely have ZERO patience on the wait of the next one🥴 I’ve always loved seeing the ones in the suicide forest and that’s what got me hooked on any and all RU-vidrs doing ghost hunts and abandoned videos 😊

I've been watching ghost shows and videos for nearly my entire life so honestly, it takes a lot anymore to creep me out with them. But there was just something even in the first few minutes of this that had me on edge from how eerie and creepy it was, so looking forward to the rest of the series

something about exploring a haunted abandoned place at night always excites me and scares me at the same time...

I'm seriously excited about the Japan series. thanks for all you do. Stay amazing

I love how there’s wood everywhere!! So much more calming, comforting, and grounding than constantly being in a cinder block, stale building

one of you should give it a shot to learning some basic japanese! even if just some simple phrases like "are you here" "whats your name" having someone with fluent japanese give a listen for EVPS would also enhance these investigations. Love you guys, your work is always outstanding.

Hello Josh. Perhaps next time when you’re doing adventures be it exploring or ghost hunt in a foreign place, it’s best to have a local to guide you. He or she can at least help you with the legend or taboo etc.

I love Japanese horror and the Japanese culture and food and everything about them in general but Japanese horror is on a whole other level. This is one of the scariest haunted videos I've watched in a while I can't wait to see more of this series. Like you could even see the fear in Dan's face when the rempod and cat balls and music box were going off

I truly enjoyed this video, I love everything about it, what stuck out the most to me was when the little boy communicated to you guys when you were on the stage.. the way it said simple words like "how" "wave" it seemed like the boy was actually communicating with you guys: simple english and genuine curiosity, it made me feel a little sad even thinking about how he tragically lost his life there, may he have some peace even if he can't leave the school, truly.

You guys going to Japan!?!! I swear as someone who have Japanese mom(We always visit Japan during holidays to visit out grandparents)... Ghost hunters would never go back with regret if they visit Japan... The amount of haunted stories I've heard from my mom and my grandparents is insane and remembering those stories back giving me chills... Explore more in Japan! Pretty sure you guys won't regret;)

Those Japanese ghosts hearing English or some kind of weird robotic Japanese: 👁👄👁 EH?

Josh! I'm so excited for all your Japan videos that are to come! This one is super awesome and I can't wait for more!

17:46 just casually walked passed the BIGGEST spider sitting on that piano.

Japanese haunted schools are really haunting. Even my cousin said she thought she seen a doppelganger of me at this very haunted school next to the elementary school she went to. She told me about this decade later when her school got demolished because of the financial reasons. Far more worse is the amount paranomal activities that the school had to go through despite the complaints made by the parents. But I feel sorry for the kids who lost their souls in both the Japanese and Taiwanese schools. It was either that they went through bullying, abuse, mental intolerance, or far more worst is child molestation.

I've always wanted more RU-vidrs to explore haunted Japan like it's such an untapped gold mine to my knowledge.

It closed down in 1987 and the students went to a different school. The center of the town was were a dam lake is now. When the dam was built the school building was moved there. The shrine too I think. The school in name was founded in 1873. A lot of schools in the Meiji era opened following a more western style of schooling.

From what I know, based on watching IRL streamers who visit Japan on Twitch... it's common for Japan to have abandon hones, schools, buildings in small towns or even in the areas where civilization are. Also common to see old photos and other remnants. This is awesome U did investigation in Japan. It's very common for stuff like this in this country. Philippines is like that too.. would love to see U do investigating there if U can 1 day

I'm so hyped over your new Haunted in Japan series! Japan is horrifying and has some real The Grudge stuff over it. I've been waiting for someone to investigate in Japan!! 🤩

I'm really stoked for this series, and this was a great introduction! I loved how it was half abandon explore and half ghost hunt. I know you've already finished recording the series, but if you go back for more (or to another country) I think it'd be a great idea to have a translator with you other than just the app. Like some of the DR60 recordings might have japanese words in them that we can't understand. And I believe old spirits won't speak English. But glad to see you guys at least using an app, and it's true some spirits might speak English too. Either way - great vid and can't wait for the rest!!!!

Big orb @ 42:36 . The wishing statue is called a Daruma Doll. @ 52:06 there is another clear orb. @ 54:07 the spirit box said "tragedy" , shortly after it said "wave" and you guys waved, but I think it was saying it had died in a tragedy with an ocean wave. Like a tsunami! Amazing episode! So cool to see haunted exploration in Japan!

the interiors of this school feels like in the game "Corpse party" pretty spooky man.... but AWESOME video! make more of this haunted Japan series 👻

I forgot to mention that I am really curious more on the back history of this location. Would be great to know more history behind it, not just the school but the overall area, the road, the town...

The intro to the school is giving me chills. Amazing job dude. Editing has been on point lately!!

You guys have no clue how much those instruments cost nowadays! Just to restore those instruments is a treat! I'm a musician and music teacher. Percussion being my specialty, I haven't seen those xylophones since I went to a collector (One of my clients) to restore some of his percussion instruments. Music was/is just as important as Math, science, history esp in Asian culture! You guys are very lucky to be in an awesome time capsule like that!

I enjoy this, it's new and it seems the ghost want to communicate. Speaking through a translator is probably the best way to ask questions. Also if a local who speaks English could accompany you would be helpful. Great job on the video

looking at those old photos pulls a string in my heart for some reason

Everything about being in an old abandoned childrens school in Japan just hits different as their culture is so different to ours and unseen before. I have more questions than answers after watching this too like what the hell happened to the rem pods? This series is going to be awesome! Fun fact to end on, the old Christian translation for Josh or Joshua? Gift from god/gods gift of course 👌

30 seconds in and I'm wondering how Japanese ghosts understand English! Especially from a Bolton accent!! 😂

when it said my legs my mind went to a Japanese urban legend called “the teke teke” a girl got her legs cut off by a train, but still has her upper body. she goes around japan asking people where her legs are and she’ll ask what her name means. the noise you will hear when she is near by is - teke teke. basically her name is what you’ll hear when she’s near by. if you give her an answer she needs she’ll let you go, but if you give her a answer she doesn’t like them she’ll cut off your legs to make you match her disfigurement body.

You should bring a Japanese translator with you next time. I really appreciate your investigation. I have lived here for years and years and am involved in spiritual work. I agree, for whatever reason, Japan is the most haunted place that I have ever been to.

Kelsi Davies did a haunted video about the Japan forest and she went there and everything. it was so cool. I'm super excited to see your upcoming Japan videos. :)

I love how Josh is still exploring abandoned buildings but with a paranormal element to it.

Wow。im leaving in japan and there's a lot places here that is indeed haunted .not only you can talk to them through devices hear some noise,but they also appear .old schools and old hospital ,temples are haunted,but i think the most haunted is the "accident property"(事故物件= jiko buken) or the abandoned house or apartment ,its either suicide or someone murdered on that house.try to explore there and I'm pretty sure that you will get the evidence you never had before

Finally found haunted content about Japan Abandoned school is the scariest thing ever imo 23:55 never seen a rempod does that 25:46 it’s crazy how everything is so active

Ay Josh and Dan! Guys thank you! I did notice a weird light anomaly at 50:39 that started right in front of Josh when he turned away from the camera!! What was that!?? Also noticed around 52:43 when you guys got on the stage, there were at least two orbs one flying over towards Josh and the other flying away from Dan to the right! ??? Sorry for updating so many times, but wanted to add that I think that was at least the 1950's Josh, looking at the old photos, being in Gray & White as you said it! Lol I liked that! Thanks guys great investigation! Peace 🕊️

This is so amazing :) Dan clearly seems really terrified from the start. Just for the next time I think it would be good idea to make an introduction with the translation and ask for permission to be there or to enter. Just beacause Japanese are really conservative and respectfull people :)

Japanese ghost can understand English…

One of my favorite videos of yours yet!❤️ So excited for the series!

Japan has always have this craziest spooky haunted school locs. Love it

This was so awesome. Thank you guys so much for being so brave and gathering this content for us! At one point after the figure left the piano on the lcs device, I thought the figure looked like it was crawling away, which could be the case if it's the boy with the broken legs. I'm glad you guys didn't fall through the floor. Stay safe out there!

Hell ya. Josh exploring is my fav. All the paranormal stuff everything beeping constantly same thing every time is just getting played out, so I’m glad Josh just always sticks to his roots

I have been watching this channel for years and one of the many things i love is josh hasn't changed and let his popularity go to his head as many others have. He is still humble respectful and polite to the spirits he contacts plus he tells u the history its like exploration and ghost hunting in one video. Keep it up josh I feel u have many years of success ahead ❤

dude, this has got to be the scariest evidence I've seen. I wouldn't be able to experience it in real life, but I know that it sure was scary. Japan's evidence in spiritual activity is insane! best of luck with the ghost hunting!

Looooved this. The passion and enthusiasm for what you were doing was so evident. Fantastic evidence captured. Doing this in Japan was such a great idea; you’re being rewarded with what you’re capturing! Great work 👏🏻 ❤

I really hope you will do an investigation in Thailand, for me this will be an extremely scary series that makes me lose sleep for weeks at a time. In my opinion, Thailand is the most haunted country, I’m Asian, I have traveled to many places, many different countries and I have never seen any strange phenomenon, except traveling in Thailand every time I go, I encounter strange things. The last time I traveled in Thailand, I was so scared that I had to leave my room and sit in the lobby until morning. Thailand is really on a very different level.

Whoa.. all the orbs.. especially at 50 min.. i’ve never seen an orb so big!! 👀 as far as i understand the Japanese have a very interesting view of ghosts. They are accepted like everyday living people amongst them.

Do they know English so well that you two can comunicate with the ghost? Its like if you do hunting in Rusia are you must say in Rusian? Latin? That what im interested about. Cant wait to see more of this guys lets go!

Also I think this is one of the only haunted explore vids I've seen that gave me the most Uncanny Valley feeling ever. The whole video I kept feeling that and it may be because of all the spirit/mythology videos and all of the taboo and superstitious rules Japan has that I know about plus all the Japanese horror movies I've seen lol but that place was legit scary! I kept expecting the girl/spirit or the little boy from The Grudge to pop out from one of the classrooms or from under the floors.

Too cool for school ✌🏻 I’m so happy to see you exploring abroad in places US explorers have never gone. I’d love to see more of these travels to explore or investigate abroad. Keep up the incredible work, I’ve been a sub for SO long now it feels and you’ve grown SO SO much Josh 🫶🏼🥰

i wonder where these students are now

I feel like it would be really cool to see Josh, Seth, Sam, Colby, Celina, and Kris all collab together and do a ghost hunting video. I love all the videos!

Omg you guy’s traveled all the way to Japan ! this has to be a good episode thank you josh !! ❤

What you guys record on your recorder sounds like a classroom in session, you can hear a older person like a teacher 45:59.. I hope you guys do more Japan Haunting its probably going to be another level of ghost hunting

The language barrier just proofs how legit Josh is. Oh and he has a massive pair for doing this in Japan lmao

Love your videos Josh keep up the hard work bro

Ily josh ive been watching you since i was 13 now im 22 how time fliess , keep being you! Much love

Cool video, I did notice the guard rails on the road up to the school, those are not put in for only pedestrians, think about it. They probably had shuttle busses going from the bottom to the top, don't cha tink?

39:45 - my first thought was the ghost was crawling / on the floor with how the movement is, and that makes sense with the idea a boy broke his legs during a fall

Just a few days back I was looking for any haunted exploration videos in Japan. Now here we are! Lovin it!

continue the good work , love your channel so much

23:53 you hear a faint "yeah"

20:37 It's funny how he turns to a Japanese elementary school student and says, "do you understand english?"

日本の南からこんにちは！ たまに日本シリーズ上げてくださるのとても嬉しいです。 正直英語はわかっていません(泣) ですがどの動画も楽しませていただいています。🩵

exploring haunted places at night brings me excitement. cant wait for this japan series!!

I absolutely loved this one Josh & Dan. Such amazing responses! Im so looking forward to the rest of this Japan series 😁❤☘️

25:38 - 25:43 Mist above left guy head.

Thanks for making a pop up in twin paranormal upload today! I always like seeing your face! Be safe, and thanks for the uploads💞(Had to come back to say this was amazing & I'm looking forward to this series!)

Damn can't wait for more of these, the activity in that school was pretty nuts hard to just write it off as equipment being odd when its that responsive..

I'm so excited for more Japanese abandoned series from my top favorite RU-vid explorer Josh!

Welcome to Japan. FYI the app translation was messed up, you told them “if anyone here can u make an effort?”, and I’m glad they did😂love your content for so long❤

Respect for taking the trip to Japan to make new and original content.

Just watching this episode in Japan makes me so uneasy. Good stuff, Josh!

the pictures at 10:50 looks suspiciously dust free

Hello from the UK. This is awesome. Well done guys for all the hard work you put into this 👏. We all appreciate what you do. Paranormal and spooky stuff fascinate me and i would love to do what you do but dont think i'll be as brave 😂

The only thing missing in this video is SETH! As always great episode, that place looked super spooky!

Here some very (VERY) important Infos for you: Next time if you visit this old school and have the first encounter with the ghost, greet it with a bow of minimum 30° and the following phrase (Generated with Google-Translation): こんにちは、幽霊さん。今夜あなたを訪ねて一緒にいたいので、親切にしてください、そして私を罵らないでください。 It means: "Greetings, ghost. I want to visit you and keep you company tonight so be so kind and please don't curse me." Because as long as you don't know with which type of ghost you're interacting, you need to be extremely careful. The japanese Yūrei (幽霊) are able to invoke enormous curses! So be always respectful and interact with them like a living, no matter if it is an adult or a child. Say always "Thank you" (Arigatō) or "I'm Sorry" (Gomen'nasai).

I've been watching this channel since Josh first went to Japan, wow look how far he's come. I've seen so many places through these vids over seven years worth of content. I feel old and I'm only 22 lol

I love watching you guys explore haunted places especially in Japan and other countries like that ❤😊

My daughter attends school in Japan and I recognize so much of what y’all are coming across. She just had her sports day (like the BW pics y’all were looking at in the beginning) and it’s so much fun. My daughter will be so sad for us to move back to America!

Yessss let's gooooo this video is gonna be one heck of a banger love all places that you go to keep up the good work be safe out there much love and respect to you

I know there was a lot of dust in the building by the look of it, BUT there were so many orbs! They faded in and out whereas the dust doesn't. Idk if anyone else noticed this. But at 50:41 there was a big orb hovering over josh. Can't wait for the next Japan Beyond dark episodes

Japan, Thailand, Taiwan paranormal scene is NO JOKE. These countries have a lot of stories & energies, it’ll def convert non-believers

Allways nice to see Japan series. It's our dream to visit Japan to explore. Got my snacks ready and let's watch this😃

Great episode. I had already seen Dan’s video for here, but it makes no difference because you both have such different styles you just compliment each other… I absolutely loved your use of music in this one. It is such an unusual and eerie place and the path winding up the hill gave me the chills, the who,e story… wow. Loved this Josh thank you. ❤

Epic vid Lmaoo someone in there really liked thigh high socks At 17:35 the board says サイハイソックス大好き “i love thigh highs” And at 18:00, the board says サイハイソックス命 “thigh high socks life” And at 20:34, above the doorframe it says it again

That 'old' TV isn't a "dial-up". That's a TV from the 40's -80's. You just plug it in the wall and go on your roof and put an antenna up and watch 12 channels. The VHS on top was a luxury in the '80's, so we could watch movies when ever we wanted.

Love watching your videos. Thanks for always posting great content!

Where I'm from, we have to do national service, and in my parent's time the drill sergeant will always shout at them saying "MY GRANDMA CAN RUN FASTER THAN YOU!" or lift or do push ups etc. Japanese grandma I've seen with my own eyes, walk faster than I do leisurely. Like I saw them just ahead, I turned to talk to my friend for a what is not more than 15s and I turned backed and there were so far ahead of me, I wouldn't hit them or come close with anything I can throw at them. Don't misjudge Japanese grannies! XD

You guys can't read? The sign out front said "Entry Prohibited". The blackboard with the bowling trophy said something about Takamori - biggest victory or something. The other side of that room, the blackboard had a lot of writing. The biggest was ShinKitajima (a place name). The room at 13:15, there's a small blackboard to the left, it says "Today's school, and the next line down says sex." LOL. The lady on the chair and the guy with the bow (14:18) are the constellations Cassiopeia and Orion (and it says it below them). 16:25 that blackboard has dates on it, looks like "so-and-so was here on this date" type stuff. There's 2017.11.5 (Nov 5) Yotchan. 16:50, the wall behind the globe has shape words, "triangle, rhombus, trapezoid, circle" etc. 18:07 where he says he doesn't like the room - that blackboard says "thigh high socks life

I can honestly say I suffer with depression and I don’t know what I would do without your videos i look forward to your videos every night before I go to bed and some how your videos put me to sleep so easily

I've always found Josh so interesting! 😊 Keep grinding and climbing to reach your full potential! ❤

that poor kid he said yes his legs still hurt🥺 honestly it sounded like there was at least 2 different people: the kid and maybe a teacher (sensei) that wanted them off the land since it’s his or hers school?? idk just some theory’s. also there was lottsss of orbs flying all over the place. great investigation can’t wait to see more

They actually walked "40 miles" uphill in the snow to get to school..

17:46 sneaky spider
