J-Horror Heavyweights Unite For New Supernatural Anthology Series

Night Tales Club is a supernatural anthology series coming to Disney+ in January 2027, based on a short horror story collection by Ichi Sawamura. The series follows businessman Hojo, played by Takayuki Yamada, who believes ghost stories and supernatural anomalies are “bugs” in an underlying conspiracy. He invites people to share mysterious experiences and evidence at his Night Tales Club in exchange for 20 million yen, with each of the six episodes featuring a different story. Directors include J-horror legends Kiyoshi Kurosawa and Takashi Shimizu, alongside Shinzo Katayama, Yukiko Sode, Yuichiro Sakashita, and Yosuke Nakamura, with Kenji Nakajima directing overarching Hojo sequences. Sawamura expressed joy that his stories will be adapted for screen audiences worldwide. Night Tales Club follows other original Japanese shows from Disney+ including Gannibal and Land of Tanabata.
