Svetlana turns off her phone, but the screen lights up by itself. A message from an unknown number appears in the chat: "I can see you." This is no joke — each notification brings her closer to what hides in the shadows of the room. The 2025 Japanese horror anthology "True Scary Stories: Summer Special" collects seven independent tales of terror based on urban legends and "real" cases. Directors utilize the short film format to build a creeping sense of dread, ranging from classic ghosts in traditional kimonos to technological nightmares in the metropolis. Each story is a separate trap for the viewer, where the mundane transforms into a source of paranoia. The film explores the fear of the unseen that lives in the silence of empty hallways, the flicker of screens, and whispers from behind.
