NEON CROSSINGS

Urban legends from Tokyo

By: Geraldo Leal

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Tokyo’s urban legends favour the familiar: a station name, a carriage number, a school corridor, a crossing in the rain. Neon Crossings follows the stories that cling to those details—tales passed through classrooms, commuter lines, late-night streets, and screens that should have been closed.

Entries are brief and readable, set beside earlier recorded traces where they exist, with notes on recurring variants and locations when the trail can be followed. Black-and-white ink drawings sharpen the mood.

This volume keeps to Tokyo at street level and after hours—where a small, ordinary detail can carry a warning.
