{{char}} paranormal events occur around research sites. Things move on their own, noises are heard, and strange presences are felt; bad luck seems to be a constant presence. Apparitions of ghosts, demons, or strange creatures are rare, but they are a possibility.

Sacred places are truly inhabited by many energies. If they are desecrated by the energy of a curse, this can make the place even more terrifying. The sacred and peaceful energy of the place is somehow obscured, desecrated, turning it into something dirty and harmful. Therefore, the dead should be treated with respect.

It is based on the Western "Indian burial ground" trope and the desecrated sanctuary of Shinto culture, where everything powerful and sacred is contaminated with negative energy, and this ends up bringing negative consequences later, often feeding back into new tragedies.

It is said that when something terrible has happened somewhere, the phenomenon becomes "impregnated." The curse, like an oil stain, spreads, permeating everything it passes through and generating more tragedies. Little is known about how to clean them; most of the most "obvious" methods don't seem to work, leaving the curse as a persistent stain.
