Abandoned Himuro Mansion The Most Haunted Mansion In Japan (REAL LIFE FATAL FRAME)

  • Located in Wakayama Prefecture, This Western-style building is a deserted mansion with a fascinating history that is said to be the inspiration for Himuro Mansion from the game Fatal Frame. Although they have striking similarities such as being located on top of a mountain and involving hauntings. Its true origin sets it apart. Constructed in 1910, the opulent villa was the residence of Asajiro Yura, a prominent and affluent Japanese businessman. Born in 1878, Asajiro hailed from the Yura family, renowned textile dyers associated with the Kishu Tokugawa clan. After completing his education at Osaka University, he embarked on a venture in the dye industry, transforming his family's business.
    As the world plunged into the chaos of World War I in 1914, Asajiro faced a critical predicament. With imports of dyestuffs from Germany halted due to the conflict, Japan's dye industry, heavily reliant on these supplies, faced peril. As the German Empire possessed exclusive manufacturing technology, the situation seemed dire. Yet, Asajiro rose to the challenge and became the first in Japan to successfully refine industrial-grade pure benzene, a significant breakthrough. He also ventured into producing phenol for disinfection and played a pivotal role in manufacturing Shimose gunpowder and set explosives during the Sino-Japanese War and World War II. Asajiro's expertise became instrumental in post-war Wakayama's chemical industry and fostered connections with military officials.
    Rumors even suggested that Asajiro Yura's had gatherings which provided him with insider information on Pearl Harbor. Nevertheless, Asajiro passed away in 1964 at the age of 86, leaving behind a family legacy. The mansion remained within the Yura family's possession until the 1980s when they relocated after the tragic loss of one of their children to a severe illness. Since around 2005, the Mori no Hai Western-style building gradually fell into disuse and obscurity, its historical significance fading with time.

      They have to vent their sense of hopelessness and their sense of purposeless by destroying. They know they haven't got anything else to offer the world.
      They haven't got the guts or brains to think about why they feel so worthless so they just destroy. Dogs piss up against structures to claim the territory for themselves. These individuals are sub animal. Places like these make these people feel intimidated. They know deep down they are nothing and so they destroy what puts them down. A family, a home, a history, evidence of love, of having been someone. There is sadness in abandoned homes, but so much more sadness in the losers that need to actually destroy on purpose an already abandoned building. Pathetic.

    That house isn't haunted, she's just so very sad. She misses the sound of children't laughter and the sound of glasses clinking as cocktails are served. She misses sharing in love of family and even the heartache they are subject to. She was there for it all: a safe haven, a place of joy and sorrow, and most of all a constant companion.
    Then they just left her to rot.

    The “samurai dolls” are mostly Ichimatsu dolls, a type of doll popularized in the Edo period. They usually depict children; the larger boy doll dressed in black, in the red case is probably (I didn’t go back to check) wearing a shichi-go-san kimono set. The previous doll with the head wrapping is a gofun (a white pigmented, chalky substance similar to plaster) doll representing the warrior-monk Benkei. Both of these types of dolls probably have a wood and gofun (clay and later plastic replaced the very thin gofun layers in more expensive or older dolls) construction, with real kimono silk and metallic thread used to clothe them. The hanging “charm” depicting a toy horse is not actually a charm, but another type of doll-adjacent artwork called oshie. It’s a 3D form of picture made up of cloth; elaborate and expensive hagoita paddles utilize this technique to make the figures more dynamic.

    I am a Japanese who likes foreign architecture!However, it is also true that interesting buildings remain in Japan.
    At the end of the 19th century, architecture such as rich houses and public facilities in Japan was influenced by Europe and other countries.
    There were times when Western-style furniture was arranged in a Japanese-style building, but in richer houses, it was sometimes built by connecting the Japanese-style building with the Western-style building.
    This is called the Japanese-Western eclectic
    Japanese-style architecture has become more valuable now, but Japanese-style buildings at that time were really a kind of art work created by craftsmen.
    Although weathering is several times faster than foreign stone houses, I want them to enjoy the richness and sense of loss.
    Thank you!

    It’s heartbreaking to see such a lovely space in such ruin and disrepair. I know it’s completely different there culturally when it comes to deaths in a home and abandonment. As well as the spiritual side of things. It would make a lovely time capsule like museum since it has such an important tie to history. It’s so sad to me to see it just falling apart. But who knows how the family feels. I’m sure not as romantic as we do. For all we know those are memories they wish to leave behind. Peace to whatever energy is left there.

    Greetings from Malaysia. I always enjoy watching Steve Ronin's explorations to all those abandoned places near and far... there's always some kind of sadness and creepiness watching those ruins and deterioration, knowing that once upon a time people really lived and breathed in there. Thanks Steve for all your videos.... I've learnt a lot from them. 🥰

    as i go through the video, I imagining how good the house was during its glorious days. its so big and many rooms. you can also imagine how wealthy the owner was.
    its just sad that it was ransacked before it was filmed. I believed that the owner didn't leave house in that condition. clothes, books, pictures, old items... its scattered everywhere.

    I think that place was absolutely beautiful! I mean, creepy AF, but still!! The wall artwork was stunning - the cranes, lotus's etc - WOW!!
    The western style room really weirded me out. The fact it looks completely untouched, unlike the rest, was strange.
    I think the smaller house may have been the gatehouse, due to its proximity to the front entrance of the property. But the way it looks, well, it's like the got up one morning and decided to just get dressed and walk out the front door, never to return.
    Thanks for doing this video! It was really interesting, and can't wait to see the next one!!

    Steve, I agree with you. The mansion was looted. Yet, the house should have been taken care of. The many possessions either taken by the owners, sold or given away. The house should have been sold and not left to go derelict. Shame on the family for abandoning it. They had so much, a shear abundance of everything, and then to just leave it is inexcusable. The poor father, who worked so hard to be successful and provide everything to his wife and children, and for them, who were so spoiled, to leave wonderful possessions and equipment behind, shame on them. Very un-Japanese.

      It was definitely haunted. Surprising part is some of the spirit spoke Japanese, English and Cantonese. Here are some of the EVPs in this video:
      7:31 "Do ten no?" (Not sure what this means in Japanese)
      8:31 "Kirin?" (Japanese?)
      8:39 "Wa ta tashi" (Japanese?)
      10:56 "Horush shi te" (Japanese?)
      12:48 "I see that he wants to be with him" (weird to hear English spoken)
      12:51 "I can't believe he would do this." (English again)
      12:56 "Saas Tung Ke?" (Japanese?)
      13:46 [Female voice but can't tell what was said.]
      14:00 "I want to make sure that he's going to leave."
      14:05 "I'm sure they will leave."
      14:06 "I didn't see it." (very loud and clear)
      14:07 "Quiet. You can see that's cruel."
      14:11 "I'm so hungry for food."
      14:14 "Well, you brought it to me."
      14:23 "Say bak guai" (Cantonese? Sounds like "damn white guy" in Cantonese.)
      14:26 "Chin guo whoa" (Cantonese? Sounds like an common expression meaning "you're think you're better than us in Cantonese.")
      15:32 "Dah shim"
      15:48 "That's horrible." (Dave might have said this. Hard to tell.)
      19:57 "Terrorize him now."
      23:10 "Ngo diew nay yah" (Cantonese? Roughly translated, it sounds like "F__k you" in Cantonese.)
      24:35 "Ngo dah ni" (Cantonese? Means "I hit you" in Cantonese.)
      27:36 "Who is it?"
      27:44 "Klo kin qua" (Japanese?)
      39:26 Another EVP caught here, but don't understand language.
      39:44 "Hot rein ta da" (Japanese?)
      40:27 "Leaving?" (Not sure if it was Dave)
      41:15 "Eff fari" (Japanese?)
      41:31 "Get down!" (very loud and clear)
      43:01 You try to open a drawer and a voice said "quit it!" very loudly.
      43:19 "Loss his balance."
      43:46 "Don't swing it." (could be Dave saying it)
      44:51 "Go down now!" (very loud)

I agreed that the beautiful colorful lotus slide door @21:50 was probably customized and handmade.
