Japanese photographer Ken Oki, who works under the pseudonym Yukison, traveled around Toyama Prefecture when he stumbled upon an eerie sight: a collection of human statues placed around the village of Fureai-Sekibutsu no Sato, which means “a village where you can meet Buddhist statues. "
“I felt as if I had accidentally found some kind of restricted area. Incredible,” Ken tweeted. In fact, he discovered a park with 800 different sculptures in the form of Buddhist deities and acquaintances of the founder of the park, Mutsuo Furukawa. His plan was to turn the park into a popular tourist attraction, where people would come to relax. Of course, this is a great idea. But as time went on, the statues lost their relaxing properties and now more likely cause an alarming feeling.
Just imagine that you are one and suddenly find something similar. At night. When there is no one nearby and no one to call for help. Yeah, very relaxing.
