The Yokai That Collected Regrets is a haunting and emotional tale inspired by the mysterious spirits of Japanese folklore-beings that walk unseen among humans, feeding not on flesh... but on feelings.
Among them is a strange and quiet Yōkai unlike any other.
It does not seek fear.
It collects regrets.
Appearing only to those burdened by the past, this spirit offers a simple, tempting exchange: give up your regret... and be free from the pain it carries. But as more people accept its offer, something begins to change. Memories fade, emotions shift, and the true cost of forgetting slowly reveals itself.
When one person refuses to let go of their past, they begin to uncover the truth behind the yokai's purpose-and the dangerous imbalance its actions are creating.
Blending Japanese mythology, emotional depth, and dark fantasy, this deeply moving story explores themes of regret, memory, identity, healing, and the importance of accepting one's past.
Perfect for readers who enjoy:
- Japanese folklore and yokai stories
- Emotional supernatural fantasy
- Thought-provoking and philosophical tales
- Stories about memory and identity
- Dark fantasy with heart
Written in immersive and poetic storytelling, The Yokai That Collected Regrets draws readers into a quiet yet powerful world where emotions take form-and where letting go may not always mean healing.
Beautiful, melancholic, and unforgettable, this story asks a profound question:
If you could erase your deepest regret... would you still be the same person?
