We compared external rumors and official facility records for each of the following parks in Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture: Northern Park, Daijoji Hill Park, and Kenmin Seaside Park. The presence of rumors does not necessarily mean that events or strange occurrences have taken place. We will organize the confirmed locations, facilities, and land histories of the parks, and separate and address claims that cannot be answered by official documents alone.
Survey methods and evaluation criteria
For each location, we compared saved rumor pages with local government facility guides as reference materials verified on 2026-10-15. The inclusion of a rumor is not proof of an event, nor does it negate the rumor simply because it is not mentioned in official documents. 'Agreement' means that a specific claim is supported by the document; 'Partial Agreement' means that only some of the claims are supported; and 'Disagreement' means that there are clear counterfactuals regarding the subject or event. 'Unmeasurable' indicates the absence of directly comparable records, while 'New Fact' indicates the confirmation of meaningful facts not present in the rumor, even if a direct comparison is not possible. New facts refer to the novelty of the rumor and do not prove the existence of a paranormal phenomenon. Rankings and scores compare the quality of the materials based on source transparency, historical and spatial context, safety information, freshness of information, and source transparency of the rumor, and do not indicate the level of fear, danger, or truthfulness of the paranormal phenomenon.

The rumored details
The Kenmin Kaihin Park page on the National Haunted Map lists rumors such as "a male ghost appears" and "you can take paranormal photos." There are also posts claiming that "corpses often wash ashore" and "a lot of bones were unearthed when the cycling path was being built." These are treated as unverified stories and are not presented as definitive records of drifting ashore, excavations, or incidents.
Source of the rumor and date of verification
The source is the location page of "National Haunted Map," an independent, external rumor-posting website. While the page contains multiple rumors, this archived description does not provide any documentation to verify the poster's primary experience or events. Since the original publication date of the rumor cannot be identified, it is treated as a secondary publication example. The verification date is 2026-10-15.

Things that could be confirmed from official and primary source materials
Ishikawa Prefecture's facility guide describes Kenmin Kaihin Park as a large 47.1-hectare park located in Fuseji-machi and Sakimori-machi, Kanazawa City, which opened on July 7, 1971. It is situated in a coastal forest, on a beach opening to the Sea of Japan, and on sand dunes at the mouth of the Sai River, and the guide also describes a swimming pool, a large pond, and walking trails. Prefectural documents confirm that the land for Kenmin Kaihin Park was used as a training ground by the former Ministry of War, then became Kanazawa City-owned land after the war, and was acquired by the prefecture and developed as a project commemorating the 100th anniversary of the prefecture's administration. This history does not include records of bones washing ashore or being found during construction, as rumored.

Points of agreement/contradictions
The rumor page features separate claims about a male ghost, a paranormal photograph, something washing ashore on the beach, and bones found during bicycle path construction. The prefectural documents describe the history of coastal forests, sand dunes, land acquisition, and park development, but they do not corroborate specific instances of people washing ashore, bones being unearthed during construction, or any other paranormal activity. The land history confirmed in the prefectural documents is background information for the park, but it is separate from the individual records indicating people washing ashore, bones being unearthed during construction, or other paranormal activity mentioned in the rumors, and does not show any consistency with the claims.
| The rumored atomic claim | Matching results | reason | Corresponding documents |
|---|---|---|---|
| A male ghost appears | Unconfirmed | The prefectural facility guide outlines the park's facilities and general overview, but it does not record the appearance of a male ghost, and therefore cannot support or refute this claim. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
| You can take photos of ghosts. | Unconfirmed | The photograph's shooting record and verification results are not included in the prefectural facility guide, and the content of the photograph cannot be confirmed solely from the rumor page. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
| Corpses often wash ashore on the beach. | Unconfirmed | The prefectural documents describe the locations of beaches and sand dunes, but they do not record instances or the frequency of bodies washing ashore, nor do they provide specific dates or records. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
| When we were building the cycling path, we found a lot of bones. | Unconfirmed | The prefectural documents only show the history of the land and the park's development; they do not contain records of construction sections, dates, or the discovery of bones. Therefore, the content of the rumors cannot be independently verified. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
Alternative interpretation
It's possible that the seaside scenery and the park's past became associated with the ghost story through repeated anonymous hearsay. However, this is merely a hypothesis about how the information spread. There are no records to definitively conclude that the washed-up debris or bones from the construction work had a different origin or were misidentified.
Scope and limitations of the investigation
The prefectural documents describe the history of the park's facilities and land, but they do not comprehensively cover records of people who were shipwrecked or records of excavations during road construction. The rumor page also does not contain information on dates, construction sections, excavation records, or independent testimonies. It is impossible to determine whether or not there are records outside the scope of these documents.
Verification result: Unmeasurable
The claims of drifting ashore, bones from construction, ghosts, and paranormal photographs, as rumored, cannot be supported or refuted by prefectural documents. The prefectural documents, which show the land's former use and the history of its acquisition and development, provide background information for the park, but they do not contain specific records indicating drifting ashore or excavation. Therefore, individual claims cannot be verified, and the existence of bone excavation or paranormal activity remains unknown.

Safety information and maps
According to prefectural documents, the park's opening hours are 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM from July to August, and 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM from September to June, with no closing days (the pool is open from July 1st to August 31st). When visiting, please follow the latest information from the park management, and do not enter the park at night to verify rumors or enter areas with usage restrictions.

2nd place: Daijoji Hills Park | Unmeasurable (77 points)
The rumored details
The National Haunted Map lists Daijoji Hill Park as a place where "the ghost of a young boy appears." It also mentions hearsay that "someone committed suicide in the mountains higher up in the park, and apparently a ghost appears there," and includes the following statements: "There is an orchard higher up," "bears sometimes come to eat the fruit, causing injuries," and "there are rumors that spirits come from the famous Noda Cemetery next door." These are all stories published in the site and are not considered factual events or sightings.
Source of the rumor and date of verification
The source is the Daijoji Hill Park page on the external rumor site "National Haunted Map." The same page contains information about the ghost of a boy, hearsay of a suicide in the mountains, the orchard, bears, and the connection to Noda Cemetery. The original posting and independently verified sources of the individual pieces of information could not be identified from the archived contents, so this is treated as a secondary publication. The verification date is 2026-10-15.

Points of agreement/contradictions
The facility guide only provides information about the park's location, area, views of the surrounding hills, and details about the landscaping and parking. There are no records that directly corroborate the claims of the boy's ghost, the rumors of suicide, the orchard, the bear injuries, or any spiritual connection to Noda Cemetery. The fact that the park exists and is located on a hill does not provide evidence to support the events or strange occurrences mentioned in the rumors.
| The rumored atomic claim | Matching results | reason | Corresponding documents |
|---|---|---|---|
| The ghost of a boy appears | Unconfirmed | The city's facility guide describes things like the landscaping and views, but it's not a document that deals with the appearance of the boy's ghost, so it can neither support nor refute the claim. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
| Apparently, someone committed suicide in the mountains at the top of the hilly park. | Unconfirmed | The park guide is not a record of suicides in the mountains, the timing of the incidents, or the people involved, and the hearsay included cannot be independently verified. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
| There is an orchard at the top. | Unconfirmed | The excerpt from the city's facility guide does not confirm the location or existence of the orchard, and therefore cannot support this specific geographical information. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
| Sometimes bears come to eat, and people get injured. | Unconfirmed | Official announcements regarding bear sightings and injuries do not include specific dates or records, and therefore cannot corroborate the information posted. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
| There are rumors that spirits come from the famous Noda Cemetery, which is located next door. | Unconfirmed | The facility guide does not address the legends or origins of the spirits associated with the nearby cemetery, making it impossible to independently verify the geographical relationship or the history of the rumors. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
Alternative interpretation
It's possible that the impression of dark hills and woods, along with the image of a nearby cemetery, were later linked within the same rumor. However, the location of the incident and the poster's observation records are not provided, so this remains merely a hypothesis about the formation of the legend. Claims of bears or injuries cannot be confirmed in other sources.
Scope and limitations of the investigation
The city's documents are introductions to park facilities and do not contain records of accidents or suicides, bear sightings, the location of orchards, or the history of legends related to cemeteries. The rumor page also does not provide dates, witnesses, or incident records. The preserved documents this time do not contain records that support or refute the claims, and it is not possible to determine whether individual events occurred or not.
Verification result: Unmeasurable
There are no records that can be directly compared with the city's facility guide regarding the boy's ghost, the rumors of suicide, the bear injury, or the connection to Noda Cemetery. The fact that these are not mentioned in the guide cannot be treated as counter-evidence, and their inclusion on the rumors page does not constitute factual confirmation. The origins of these individual events and legends remain unknown.

3rd place: Northern Park | Unmeasurable (72 points)
The rumored details
The Northern Parks page of the National Haunted Map lists a rumor that "a female ghost appears there." Regarding the nighttime phone calls, it states that "during the day, it is a place of relaxation for people of all ages, from children to the elderly, but late at night, it seems that a paranormal phenomenon occurs where people walking along the edge of the pond in the back receive phone calls from an unknown number." It also states that "there is a rumor that someone committed suicide in the pond in this park in the past." These are all hearsay stories that have been published and should not be considered as factual records of phone calls, suicides, or accidents.
Source of the rumor and date of verification
The source is the location page of the external rumor site "National Ghost Map". It lists stories of a female ghost, a phone call by a pond late at night, and a suicide by the pond, but the source confirming the poster's first experience or individual events cannot be identified from the saved excerpts. The original publication date of the rumor is also unknown, so it is treated as an example of secondary publication. The verification date is 2026-10-15.

Points of agreement/contradictions
The prefectural records confirm the park's location, area, opening date, and the zones and facilities surrounding the Morishita River. The specific claims about a female ghost, the story of receiving an unknown number call if walking by the pond late at night, and a suicide at the pond cannot be directly verified from the facility information. Even if the location and the existence of the park match, this does not constitute evidence to support or refute the events, so these claims remain unconfirmed.
| The rumored atomic claim | Matching results | reason | Corresponding documents |
|---|---|---|---|
| A female ghost appears | Unconfirmed | The prefectural facility guide provides basic information about the park, but it does not deal with the appearance of a female ghost, so this claim cannot be verified. | No official data available for direct comparison. |

| Someone committed suicide in the pond in this park a long time ago. | Unconfirmed | The prefectural records do not show any records of accidents or suicides, and there are no independent documents within the scope of this preservation that can be used to cross-reference the timing and events. | No official data available for direct comparison. |
Alternative interpretation
The combination of a pond late at night and an unknown number receiving a call may have become a memorable ghost story through repeated word-of-mouth. While it's generally possible that how things appear in the dark or how the call was perceived could be interpreted differently, there is no documentation to show what actually happened at this location.
Scope and limitations of the investigation
The prefectural facility guide only covers basic information about the park and is not a comprehensive record of accidents or suicides. The rumored article also does not specify the exact location of the pond, the date of the incident, or provide independent testimonies or primary sources. The lack of information in the facility records cannot be used as grounds for denial, and the veracity of each claim cannot be determined solely from the preserved materials.
Verification result: Unmeasurable
The female ghost, late-night phone calls, and suicide in the pond mentioned on the rumors page cannot be directly compared with records in the prefectural facility guide. The park's location and the facts about the facility do not support the supernatural occurrences, nor is the lack of mention in the documents counter-evidence. The origin of the rumors and whether the events actually occurred remain unknown.

When visiting, please check the latest information from the administrator and avoid nighttime visits or entering restricted areas for the purpose of verifying rumors.

What I learned by crossing locations
The rumors at the three locations differ in content: an incoming call by the pond in the northern park, hearsay linked to the mountains and cemetery in Daijoji Hill Park, and bones washed ashore or from construction work in Kenmin Seaside Park. The prefectural and city documents describe the facilities and topography of each park, and the history of the land in Kenmin Seaside Park was also confirmed, but none of them are documents that prove the strange occurrences in the rumors. The key point in the comparison is not to substitute the existence of the parks or the general history of the area for the confirmation of individual events.
summary
What we were able to confirm were the locations and facility information of the three parks, as well as the land history of Kenmin Kaihin Park, from its former use to its development as a park. The appearance of individual spirits, suicides in the pond, injuries from bears, and bones found washed ashore or during construction could not be directly confirmed in the preserved official documents. The absence of information should not be used as evidence of denial, unconfirmed claims are immeasurable, and the land history should be treated as official background information and read separately from individual claims.
FAQ
If a rumor is posted on a website, can we assume that an event actually occurred?
No. What you can see on the page is that the rumor is published. It is treated separately from records of events or independent testimonies.
Does "unmeasurable" mean the rumor is false?
That's incorrect. The official documents this time do not allow for direct verification of individual claims, meaning that it's impossible to confirm or deny them.
Does the land history of Kenmin Kaihin Park support the rumors about bones?
No. What we were able to confirm was the history of the land, from a former Army Ministry training ground to a prefectural park development. We did not confirm the discovery or washing ashore of any bones during construction.
