Episode synopsis

Satomi Ayukawa (Miho Nakayama) has a strange power: when she touches an object, she sees the past of the person connected to it. She's just seen an unpleasant part of an arranged-marriage prospect's past. Later, her car stalls on a mountain pass and a man (Johnny Okura) gives her a lift. In the passenger seat she picks up a pendant — and an image of a woman being strangled floods into her mind.

About Tales of the Bizarre

Inspired by American TV movies like "Hitchcock Theater" and "The Twilight Zone," the show features multiple works with Tamori as the storyteller and actors as the main characters. While horror and supernatural themes are predominant, a variety of genres like comedy and drama are also produced. Most episodes, however, have a bad ending.
