Editing Guidelines for Horror Story Files

Kowawa File is a horror information website that compiles information on haunted locations across Japan, true ghost stories, urban legends, and personal experiences submitted by readers into a collection of articles. The articles are intended for the enjoyment of experiencing horror and do not definitively state the authenticity of paranormal phenomena.

Things I value when writing articles

We organize the regional names, types of places, rumors being discussed, and points to note in a way that is easy for readers to understand.
Prioritizing the safety of our readers, we will avoid any language that encourages trespassing into restricted areas or private property.
Personal accounts and eyewitness accounts will be edited as needed to respect the privacy of the contributors.
If any errors or outdated information are found, we will correct them to the best of our ability.

Regarding the handling of time

Articles in the Horror Stories File include local rumors, reader submissions, publicly available local information, and editorial research notes. Since local conditions can change, please be sure to check the latest management information, traffic conditions, and facility rules before considering a visit.
