Explore the haunted history of Shakujii Park in Nerima, Tokyo, where the ruins of a medieval samurai castle overlook the dark waters of Sanpōji Pond. According to legend, after Shakujii Castle fell in 1477, defeated lord Toshima Yasutsune rode his horse—and its magnificent golden saddle—into the pond, while his grieving daughter, Princess Teruhime, followed him to a watery death. Today, visitors report eerie splashing, strange sensations, and sightings of a pale woman near the water. Discover the history of the Toshima clan, the legend of the sunken treasure, and the ghost said to haunt one of Tokyo’s most atmospheric parks.
