'I live with a ghost': Japan's haunted homes attract bargain hunters

'I live with a ghost': Japan's haunted homes attract bargain hunters From the moment Ryua first walked into her rental apartment in Tokyo she believed it to be haunted. When I visited the place for a viewing there was a man standing there, glaring at me, she says. Since the estate agent couldn't see him, I realised he must be a ghost. While someone more squeamish would probably have quickly left the flat never to return, Ryua chose to go ahead and move in. I'm a bit of a contrarian, so I decided I wanted to become friends with this glaring male ghost, adds Ryua, who works as an aidoru, a young entertainer, and who doesn't wish to share her surname.
