About The Girl from the Well by Rin Chupeco

Okiku is a vengeful ghost who punishes monsters that hurt children, echoing the harm done to her 300 years ago in Japan. When she encounters an American boy, she finds that he is not a monster, but something evil is trapped beneath his skin by intricate tattoos.

Their story moves from the American Midwest to the remote valleys and shrines of Aomori, Japan, amid eerie doll rituals and dark Shinto exorcisms. This young adult horror novel may appeal to readers interested in ghost stories, supernatural threats, and Japanese religious folklore.
