It takes on the appearance of an extremely tall woman and it makes a sound like “Po… Po… Po…” in a deep, male voice. In Japanese, “Hachishakusama” means “Eight Feet Tall”. They called it “Hachishakusama” because of its height. She told me there was a dangerous thing that was haunting the area. There’s no need for you to worry.”Īs we sat nervously in the kitchen waiting for my grandfather to come back, she explained what was happening. “Don’t worry,” she replied in a shaking voice. I turned to my grandmother and cautiously asked, “Who’s Hachishakusama?” With that, he hurried out, got into his truck and drove off. He looked at me with a sad expression in his eyes and said, “You’ve been liked by Hachishakusama.” Don’t take your eyes off him for a second.” “I’ve got to go out for a while,” he said. Grandpa came barging back into the room and spoke to my grandmother. I looked over at my Grandma and she was trembling. He suddenly rushed out to the hallway and made a phonecall. I tried to answer all his questions as best I could. My grandfather bombarded me with questions… “Where was she standing? When did this happen? What did you do? Did she see you?” “As tall as the garden hedge,” I replied, beginning to get scared. “You must tell us exactly… How tall was she?” “This is very important,” he said, in an intense voice. Grandpa’s face became very serious and he grabbed me by the arm. Grandma’s eyes grew wide and she covered her mouth with her hand. They weren’t really paying attention to me, until I mentioned that distinctive sound.Īs soon as I said that, both of them suddenly froze.
I sat down at the table and, after a while, I told my grandparents what I had seen. My grandparents were in the kitchen drinking tea. Then, a split second later, she walked off and the strange noise disappeared with her, fading into the distance.īewildered, I got up and wandered back into the house. I wondered if she was wearing stilts or some sort of huge high heeled shoes. I was surprised at how tall the woman was. Just as I was about to get up, I heard a strange sound. I stared up at the clouds and enjoyed the feeling of the soft rays of the sun and the gentle breeze. It was a hot Summer’s day and I lay down on the grass to rest. One day, I was playing out in the backyard. My parents wanted to have some time by themselves, so after a few days, they took a trip to another part of Japan, leaving me in the care of my Grandma and Grandpa. They were delighted to see me and had a lot of little presents to give me. The last time I saw them was the Summer when I was 8 years old.Īs usual, my parents booked a flight to Japan and we drove from the airport to my grandparents house.
I was their only grandchild, so they spoiled me. When we arrived, my grandparents always welcomed me with open arms. They lived in a small village and they had a big backyard.
Every Summer, my parents would take me there on holiday to visit them. She is 8ft tall, wears a long white dress and makes a sound like “Po… Po… Po… Po… Po…” Eight Feet Tall or “Hachishakusama” is a Japanese urban legend about a tall woman who abducts children.
