I'm changing mics in the next couple of weeks, so fingers crossed everything is okay oof )

On 5th May 1996, Megumi Yashiki and Narumi Takumi decided to visit the Tsubono Spa Hotel. It wasn't just a regular hotel, it had been abandoned almost a decade before. People called it a Shinrei Supotto, otherwise known as a psychic spot or a haunted place.
They drove from their home city of Himi to Uozo, where the hotel was located. They were never seen again...

If you are a woman in Afghanistan, outside your home you cannot sing and you cannot speak. You cannot show your face, and you cannot study (beyond grade six). You cannot work and you cannot go to the salon, if there were any salons to go to (because they've been shut down). These are just a few of the many things that you cannot do.
In 2021, the Taliban captured Afghanistan. In the three years since their takeover, they've systemically erased women's rights and freedom - if you are a woman in Afghanistan, you cannot be seen and you cannot be heard. And if you are...

On 27th May 1967, Lucila Lalu's butchered legs were found wrapped in newspapers in the trash. Days later, her torso was found in a vacant lot. Who would have wanted to kill the young, successful, mother and entrepreneur?
