It happenes deep in the mountains of Ibaraki.
-
Japan's most terrible and aberrant festival.
-
Surrounding this inexplicable festival
-
Many mysteries still remain unsolved.
-
In those forgotten hills of Ibaraki lurked a silent shrine.
-
At that place, every year, a secret winter festival is held.
-
It is whispered that, at this festival, and at this shrine, they celebrate Tengu as god,
-
and have done so since the Edo Period.
-
The Cursing Festival.
-
At men disguised as Tengu
-
The townspeople continually hurl abuse, pent up from daily grudges
-
Steadily spewing their anger
-
As they reach each shrine, the Tengu must endure the scorn of the townspeople, fighting tooth and nail to place their offering lest it get stolen by the masses.
-
After the Tengu have visited each of the 16 shrines The Tengu change to red faced masks
-
and step forth onto the balcony of Atago Shrine
-
The citizen's below frantically snatch and grasp at the offerings they throw.
-
Hell on earth.
-
Finally the horde shrieks, "Ohbakayaro" three times and the dark parade ends.
-
The ever mild mannered Japanese are turned into demons during this festival
-
So why don't you come try it for yourself?
