Fuji-Q Highland Transforms into a Terrifying Horror Realm This Summer Night... Collaboration with Director Takashi Shimizu's New Film 'Yatsuhaka-mura' Presents 'Senritsu Horror Night 2026: Night of Grudges' from July 31 (Fri) to August 2 (Sun)

Key Visual

Fuji-Q Highland (Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi Prefecture) will host a park-wide immersive horror event titled 'Senritsu Horror Night 2026: Night of Grudges' from Friday, July 31 to Sunday, August 2, in collaboration with the film 'Yatsuhaka-mura' directed by Takashi Shimizu, based on the legendary mystery series with over 55 million copies sold cumulatively (to be released on September 18, 2026).

'Senritsu Horror Night' is an annual summer horror event held by Fuji-Q Highland. For over 15 years, it has evolved its production and experiences, immersing visitors in terrifying scenarios across the entire park. This year, the horror experience will be further enhanced by incorporating the world of the upcoming film 'Yatsuhaka-mura,' creating an unprecedented immersive event.

Within the expansive world of 'Yatsuhaka-mura' throughout the park, participants will step into darkness as characters in the story. Chased by maddening entities emerging from the shadows, they must uncover the truth behind a curse—an intense suspense thriller experience combining 'fear of escape' and 'tension of discovery'—offering unprecedented immersion. Additionally, for the first time, a limited 'Actor Participation' ticket will be introduced. Beyond the traditional 'fleeing from fear' experience, this offers a new form of immersive horror where guests can become the ones who instill terror.

As a related initiative, a keyword rally will be held until the end of September, where guests can collect keywords related to the film 'Yatsuhaka-mura' while exploring the park. This program will allow visitors to experience the film's world at Fuji-Q Highland even outside the Horror Night event dates.

Experience the world of the film 'Yatsuhaka-mura' during the eerie stillness of a summer night at Fuji-Q Highland.
