Located at Mutsu Region

The Himuro Mansion is the haunted setting for the first Fatal Frame game. The mansion is centuries old and dates back far further than the Edo period of Japan. In the game's setting, the mansion was owned by the powerful Himuro family. The mansion is situated in such a way that it is surrounded and protected by five shrines in the surrounding mountains, that house five gods.

The mansion is located in the Himuro Mountain area, located in the southern region of the prefecture. [1] The mansion was the residence of a landowner that controlled vast areas of land in the region. [2][3] Ryozo Munakata purchased the mansion some decades after the disaster and moved in with his wife and daughter. The family were plagued by paranormal incidents, however, and construction was eventually halted.[4]

Misc. Info

  • The infamous 'Based on a True Story' tag-line was not used in the Japanese release.
  • Himuro (氷室) is Japanese for 'ice house' or 'ice room', which were underground cellars filled with ice and snow to store perishable foods.
  • The Himuros seem to have been samurai at one point, as the mansion is an old samurai residence,[6] and old samurai armour can be found around the building with the Himuro family crest on it.
