قسمت 13: زوجی در خانه روستایی جدیدشان به طبل‌های مرموز و صداهای نگران‌کننده‌ای کشف می‌کنند

13

A young married couple arrives at the outskirts their new town in the country, when the wife finds a small red Japanese pellet drum with its handle planted into the ground. When they arrive in town proper, they find two lines of pellet drums with their handles planted into the ground, leading up to their new house. Though the townspeople allegedly don't like city people, they find the town elder waiting to greet them and warmly offer a tour. During the tour, the wife asks about the drums; the elder explains that they are lined up to newcomers' homes as a town tradition, to bring them good luck. The couple is then led to a temple enshrining the town's protector god (perhaps a Jizo statue?), who will allegedly follow the drums to visit the newcomers' home. Later that night, the couple settles in for bed. The wife wakes up when she hears a strange distant noise. She notices the pellet drums playing on their own and the sound of babies crying, and tries to wake her husband, to no avail. As the sounds get closer and louder, she tries desperately to wake him. Suddenly, the drums and the crying stop. The husband stirs, and when the wife turns to face him, his skin turns ghastly pale and he wails in a distorted infant cry that echoes through the valley. Lights turn on in town, in the distance, but suddenly turn off as the crying continues and becomes more childlike. (Source: Wikipedia)
