本片是一部带有浓郁昭和气息的怪谈动画，每集开头均为傍晚黄昏，著名实力派男星津田宽治配音的江湖艺人高声吆喝，招揽顾客，以洋片（紙芝居）的形式讲述一个又一个短小精悍却恐怖阴森的都市怪谈。如新搬入的公寓贴着奇怪符咒、不断能印出发丝的复印机、为了防止被上身而不得不彻夜欢笑的家族、直通地下13层的诡异电梯……每集均在最紧张时刻戛然而止，使观者在恐慌之际又留下无限回味空间，其风格与《新耳袋》和《毛骨悚然撞鬼经》有异曲同工之妙。故做古旧拙朴的画面和风格幽异的片尾曲，更加为这部短剧增色不少。此外，官网还不定期提供短篇小说供爱好者阅读。Every week at 5 p.m. an old man in a yellow mask shows up at a children's playground and tells them ghost stories based on myths and urban legends of Japanese origin. The man tells the stories on the back of his bicycle using a traditional kamishibai (Paper Drama) method and features a new tale each week.
