On October 5, the night from Sunday to Monday, a hotel in Japan, which was visited by tourists who came to see the ghost that brings happiness, was burnt. According to the beliefs of the Japanese house, the house loved by a good ghost, will certainly be destroyed, after the house spirit leaves the house.
Two-storied hotel-river “Rekufuso”, which was in Iwate Prefecture, enjoyed a good reputation of a house with a home spirit for more than 300 years. To get here, tourists booked rooms in advance, for two or three years. In “Rekufuso”, according to eyewitnesses, it was possible to observe several different features, the most famous and popular of which was “dzasiki Varas” – house spirit, taking the appearance of a child. It is believed that only innocent souls can notice such home spirit, and yet it protects the children and brings happiness. There was a room in the old hotel where dzasiki could even be seen by the adult travelers. Many of the guests, spent the night in this room, and then talked about the success which had fallen upon them after a rest at the hotel.
But even when the ghosts remain in their coveted spot, continuing to attract tourists, it does not always satisfy owners. Thus, in one of the pubs of Hampshire was inhabited by a warm and cheerful spirit that pours beer mugs to visitors free of charge. Any traveler or local resident, looking into the bar and engrossed in conversation with a neighbor or released to the toilet, coming back, may discover that his circle has considerably been increased. Of course, rumors of such a generous serving, gather more and more visitors in a pub.
However, the hostess of the establishment is unhappy – in fact the spirit fills the cups, emptying the barrels of beer, which it acquired, not paying a penny. In addition, visitors stick to the pub for hours for free drinks without buying food or extra beer, so soon an exorcist will call in a pub, and “the bartender Ridi,” as the visitors nicknamed the hospitable spirit, should be removed to another place.
