Japanese doll Aju doll
Superstition supporting dolls (especially Japanese dolls) to pray for peace is quite popular in Japan, so there are many supernatural phenomena about dolls, among which the well-known "Aju doll" has almost become a nightmare for girls who love to play with dolls. The story begins in Kurosawa-CHO, Kongzhi Prefecture, Hokkaido. Before the war, a Suzuki Yongji man kept the doll of his daughter Agatha who died when he was three years old in Wannian Temple. When Mr Suzuki returned to China after the war, he found that the hair of the dolls supported in the temple had actually grown several centimeters. It is said that it is because Zhu's soul is attached to the doll. After this story was reported by TV more than 20 years ago, similar stories spread all over Japan. Because of the media's rendering, people panicked. Once, dolls abandoned by their owners were common on the roadside.

This happened in the seventh year of Dazheng (19 18). There was a girl named Agatha. One day her brother bought Agatha a Japanese doll. Agatha likes that doll very much. She loves it as much as her sister. However, Agatha later fell ill with a bad cold. In memory of Agatha, her family dedicated her most precious doll to the altar and worshipped it carefully every day. As a result, the doll's hair has just grown from her sister's head! Later, the doll was sent to Wannian Temple in Kongzhi County, Hokkaido, and has been supported ever since.

It is said that dolls that imitate real people are particularly easy to attract souls aboard. The more cherished they are by their owners, the easier they are to be possessed by souls. So far, science still can't explain why the hair of Aju doll continues to grow. Maybe it's really because a soul is possessed by a doll.
