Spirited Away (千と千尋の神隠し) It is not only the most commercially successful film in Japan, but also the lifetime favourite of so many, including myself. But are there not some parts in the film that make you feel uneasy? That's totally normal because there are some horror elements in it. In this bonus episode, I’m talking about Ghibli's masterpiece, Spirited Away, and how you can watch it as a horror film with some deep analysis of hidden meanings, mythology, and folklore.
