(Project Zero is also known as Fatal Frame in America)

Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water is one of the most artful and interesting horror games that has ever been produced. One of the big reasons for that is the way that it taps into yurei (Japanese ghost) artistic tradition.

In this video I take a deep look into the cultural resonance of yurei, and why that makes Project Zero an intense, but beautiful and evocative game.

Let me know your thoughts and your own Project Zero experiences!
