One of the most popular writers working in Japan today, Mariko Koike is a recognised master of detective fiction and horror writing. Known in particular for her hybrid works that blend these styles with elements of romance, The Graveyard Apartment is arguably Koike’s masterpiece. Originally published in Japan in 1986, Koike’s novel is the suspenseful tale of a young family that believes it has found the perfect home to grow into, only to realise that the apartment’s idyllic setting harbours the specter of evil and that the longer they stay, the more trapped they become.

This tale of a young married couple who harbour a dark secret is packed with dread and terror, as they and their daughter move into a brand new apartment building built next to a graveyard. As strange and terrifying occurrences begin to pile up, people in the building start to move out one by one, until the young family is left alone with someone... or something... lurking in the basement. The psychological horror builds moment after moment, scene after scene, culminating with a conclusion that will make you think twice before ever going into a basement again.

A terrifying tale of a young family who moves into an apartment building next to a graveyard, and the horrors that are unleashed upon them.
