Sesujii A Japanese horror writer who made their debut in 2023 with "Kinki Chiho no Aru Basho ni Tsuite." Their fiction is characterized by the use of seemingly authentic materials—including magazine articles, online message-board posts, letters, and other fragmented documents—which gradually connect to reveal a larger source of horror. In "Kinki Chiho no Aru Basho ni Tsuite," a writer and an editor investigate a series of strange stories associated with an unspecified location in Japan's Kinki region. Reports of a missing girl, unsettling eyewitness accounts, and letters from readers accumulate until connections between apparently unrelated incidents begin to emerge. The novel became a bestseller with more than one million copies in circulation and was adapted into a film in 2025.
