内容紹介
「四ツ谷怪談」のお岩さん、「牡丹燈篭」のお露さんなど日本の幽霊は悲しみに浸り、怒りに身を震わせているものが多い。そんな可哀そうな幽霊を理解しようじゃないか! という本書。名前、出身地、死因、出没場所、襲撃タイプ、危険レベルなど詳細プロフィールと解説文、さらにはリアルめなイラストで。各幽霊の特徴をつかめます。万が一遭遇してもこれで大丈夫でしょう。だって幽霊は常にあなたの近くにいるのだから・・・.?アタックシリーズは他に"Ninja Attack!"、"Yokai Attack!"があります。
Yurei is the Japanese word for "ghost." It's as simple as that. They are the souls of dead people, unable-or unwilling-to shuffle off this mortal coil. Yurei are many things, but "friendly" isn't the first word that comes to mind. Not every yurei is dangerous, but they are all driven by emotions so uncontrollably powerful that they have taken on a life of their own: rage, sadness, devotion, a desire for revenge, or even the firm belief that they are still alive. This book, the third in the authors' bestselling Attack! series, after Yokai Attack! and Ninja Attack! gives detailed information on 39 of the creepiest yurei stalking Japan, along with detailed histories and defensive tactics should you have the misfortune to encounter one.

Smart and creepy
2012/10/9
By Ryan M. Shepard
- (Amazon.com)
形式:ペーパーバック
Accessible, engagingly written, detail-oriented, and packed with vintage prints, photos, and other illustrations, _Yurei Attack_ is probably the best introduction to Japanese ghost lore currently available to English readers.
The bilingual Alt and Yoda dived deep into their subject: visiting museums and archives, surveying a wide range of popular and academic literature on Japanese ghosts and their cultural context, traveling to sites associated with the spirits they profile - even undergoing a recommended Shinto exorcism after researching Oiwa, an especially cruel and wrathful specter. The result is a rich overview of an aspect of Japanese folklife that has rarely received much serious attention outside of Japan.
Some readers may find the "survival guide" framing of the book - part game cheat guide, part Pokemon card - off-putting, but it's easily overlooked in favor of the more substantive narrative at its core. Japan's ghosts are most active in summer, but _Yurei Attack_ still makes for smart, creepy Halloween reading.

Fun, surprisingly informative
2012/9/25

- (Amazon.com)
形式:ペーパーバック
Chock-full of information, with great illustrations and an easy-to-read, fun style: Yurei Attack is well-worth picking up if you're interested in the world of Japanese ghosts.
Yurei Attack is the third in a series of books by authors Hiroko Yoda and Matt Alt about Japanese history, folklore and strange mythical beasts. This time around they've tackled yurei, the kind of Japanese ghosts that populate recent J-horror films like The Ring and The Grudge.
The book is written in a survival guide-style format, with full-color pages detailing the ghosts' origins, methods of attack, and, most importantly, tips on how to avoid their wrath. Each yurei is profiled separately, with illustrations by Shinkichi, a Japanese manga artist who doesn't hold back, portraying the often pretty terrifying stories in all their bloody detail.
For a book written in this format and full of illustrations, it's easy to get the impression Yurei Attack is for kids, but it's actually for mature readers, full of the aforementioned graphic images and comprised entirely of "real" information - that is, all the stuff in the book comes from real Japanese legends.
For that reason, the book is a really great resource for learning these horror stories, which are known universally throughout Japan. The spooky stories a culture tells around the campfire at night can reveal a lot about them, and if you're interested in Japanese folklore and culture, this is a great place to start.

All Hallow's Read Candidate
2012/11/16
By alexander o. smith
- (Amazon.com)
形式:ペーパーバック
Way back in 2011, writer Neil Gaiman proposed a new reading holiday: All Hallow's Read. The concept is simple: give a scary book to a friend on Halloween, and I can't imagine a better candidate than Yurei Attack, especially if you have a friend/relative with an interest in things Japanese.
Some comments have talked about the framing of the book as a "survival guide," as a potential put-off, but I found the standard format introduction for each ghost story in the book made it very accessible. Quite a feat, considering the depth and breadth of the research. There is much here that, to my knowledge, has never appeared in English before, making Yurei Attack a unique opportunity for the general folklorist who wants to include Japanese ghost stories in their repertoire. (On that note, I'd also recommend the authors' other books in the "Attack" series: Yokai Attack and Ninja Attack, both deeply researched surveys of different aspects of Japanese folklore.)
Yokai Attack!: The Japanese Monster Survival Guide
Ninja Attack!: True Tales of Assassins, Samurai, and Outlaws
Good for picking off the bookshelf for a quick browse, or in-depth reading. The inclusion of the real-world places where the ghost stories took place (with access information, too) also suggests using this book to inform an off-the-beaten-path tour of Japan. I highly recommend this book!
