Dive into one of Kyoto’s darkest legends in this chilling episode of Supernatural Japan as we explore the haunted history of Nanzen-ji, where legendary outlaw Ishikawa Goemon was supposedly boiled alive after a failed assassination attempt on Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Was Goemon truly a Robin Hood–style hero or a criminal whose story grew in the telling? We separate history from folklore, examine the gruesome execution that shocked feudal Japan, and uncover the chilling ghost stories said to haunt Nanzen-ji’s peaceful temple grounds today—perfect for fans of Japanese history, haunted places, and dark folklore.
