Now Viewing: gakkou_no_kaidan_(anime)Tag type: Copyright 学校の怪談 (School Ghost Stories), also known as Ghost Stories in North America. A 2000 supernatural horror anime animated by Studio_Pierrot. It is an anime installment of the horror franchise Gakkou no Kaidan and is based on the novels of the same name by Tsunemitsu Tooru. It was directed by Abe Noriyuki and written by Hashimoto Hiroshi. The soundtrack was composed by Wada Kaoru. The characters were designed by Onishi Masaya. The series ran from October 22, 2000 to March 25, 2001. Miyanoshita Satsuki moves to the hometown of her deceased mother, Kayoko. Soon after she arrives, she decided to visit an old abandoned school building next to her current school with her brother Keiichirou, their neighbor Aoyama Hajime, and her classmates Koigakubo Momoka, and Kakinoki Leo. The group quickly discover that the building is haunted and find out that Kayoko was responsible for sealing ghosts throughout the town. Now that the town is becoming increasingly urbanized, the ghosts have been unleashed. Armed with an exorcism book her mother left behind, Satsuki must work with her friends to exorcise the spirits. The anime is notable for receiving an English dub that is intentionally wildly different from the original. Although the plot is the same, the script is turned to a parody with the voice actors given free rein to improvise jokes. This was done because ADV, the dubbers, were concerned that a straight translation/localization of the original would not sell although the DVDs still offered the original version, complete with the more faithful subtitles.
