What's left behind the scenes

  • The house where filming took place was rented specifically for this project. When the franchise became popular, the house began to attract tourists, and in 2019 it was demolished.
  • The makeup for the ghosts of Kayako and Toshio (played by Takako Fuji and Yūya Ozeki respectively) took 2 hours.
  • Yūya Ozeki is afraid of cats, so filming his character with a beloved cat named Mar was very difficult.
  • Takako Fuji practiced ballet and acrobatics, so all the seemingly impossible bends and jerky movements of her character she performed herself; no computer graphics were used.
  • Two versions of the film – (R-rated) and PG-13 – were presented for test screenings. After a brief debate, it was decided to release the less harsh version, from which the most gruesome scenes were removed.
  • Yuya Ozaki, who played the ghost boy, is terribly afraid of cats in real life. Nevertheless, throughout the film, we see his character with a cat in his arms.
  • The attic of the ominous house was a separate structure. This provided more space for the film crew to maneuver within the house itself.
