On a pitch-black night on May 21, 1938, the two small villages of Kaio and Sakamoto, located in Nishikamo Village, Tomata District, Okayama Prefecture, Japan, fell into a dead silence. This remote mountainous area, where the villagers lived a simple agricultural life, surrounded by dense forests and towering mountains, was filled only by the chirping of insects and the sound of wind. Suddenly, a burst of gunfire ripped through the darkness, and wailing echoed through the village. Within an hour and a half, 21 -year-old Mutsuo Toi, armed with a hunting rifle and a Japanese sword, massacred 30 villagers, including his grandmother, and wounded three more before committing suicide on the mountaintop. This “Tsuyama Incident,” also known as the “Tsuyama Thirty Massacre,” shocked Japan, and Kaio Village has since been dubbed the “Cursed Village.” Legend has it that the victims’ spirits linger in abandoned houses, causing nighttime cries and apparitions, making the village one of Japan’s most terrifying urban legends. In this episode, we delve into the dark truth behind the Tsuyama Incident, uncovering Mutsuo Toi’s evil deeds and the curse that befell the village. Nishikamo Village is located in Tomata District, Okayama Prefecture, in an isolated mountainous region . Tucked away between rolling hills and dense forests are the two small villages of Kaio and Sakamoto. In 1938, Japan was in the grip of a period of militarist fever. With the outbreak of World War II, many of the village’s young men were drafted into the army, leaving behind the elderly, women, and the infirm. Kaio Village consists of only about 30 households, who survive on rice farming, chicken farming, and a small amount of hunting. Their one-story wooden houses are scattered along the hillside, separated by dirt roads and rice paddies. With no streetlights, the villagers slept early and left their doors unlocked. The ancient custom of “night visits” (ye zai) persisted, allowing young men to visit women at night for intimate encounters, a practice that also sowed the seeds of conflict within the village. Wartime supplies were scarce, and power outages were frequent, leaving the villagers isolated from the outside world and leading a simple yet oppressive life. The closed environment of Kaio Village fostered a culture of gossip and xenophobia among the villagers. Anyone who stood out was easily isolated and even ostracized by the “village eight points.” This atmosphere provided a breeding ground for Mutsuo Toi’s murder. Born on March 5, 1917, in Kurami, Kamo Village, Tomata District, Okayama Prefecture, Toi’s life was marked by tragedy. His parents died of tuberculosis when Toi was young, leaving him and his older sister to be raised by their 76-year-old grandmother. When he was six, his grandmother moved him and his older sister to Kaio Village, where they lived in a traditional wooden house with simple furnishings, consisting solely of tatami mats and an old-fashioned brazier. The Toi family had a small amount of land, and their lives were barely comfortable. However , his grandmother was strict and often disciplined Toi, leaving his older sister as his only emotional support. Toi was a bright child, achieving top grades in both village elementary and middle school . He excelled in writing, often creating children’s stories, earning him the acclaim of his teachers as a “child prodigy.” He stood about 1.6 meters tall, thin and delicate, wearing round-framed glasses. He usually wore a neat, stand-up-collared school uniform and was polite and courteous. The village elders praised him for his promising future. However, Doi was frail, coughing frequently, and introverted, rarely playing with his peers. At the age of 13, his sister married, leaving him without emotional support and becoming even more withdrawn. He often walked alone in the woods near the village, gazing at Mount Sen-no-jo in the distance. Villagers began to find him peculiar, saying he “was always in a daze, not like a normal person.” In 1937, at the age of 20, Doi was diagnosed with tuberculosis. At that time, tuberculosis was considered incurable in Japan, and patients were considered “useless,” barred from military service and faced discrimination in the militaristic society. Doi’s illness caused his status in the village to plummet, and villagers shunned him, and even the women he had once been close to refused to associate with him. The “night ritual” made Doi popular with women during his youth, particularly two village women with whom he had intimate relationships. However, after he was diagnosed with tuberculosis, these women married off and spread gossip within the village, mocking him as a “sick man” and a “useless man.” According to Doi’s suicide note, these humiliations deeply wounded his pride. He wrote, “The villagers’ cold eyes and betrayal make my life worse than death.” Doi became obsessed with the 1936 Abe Sada incident (a prostitute murdering her lover), and he wrote in his diary about his anger at society, saying, “If my life is short, I will leave an everlasting nightmare in this village. ” He began collecting weapons, modifying hunting rifles, and test-firing them at night. Villagers, upon hearing the gunshots, simply misinterpreted the activity as hunting, and no one suspected him. Doi’s loneliness and hatred grew, finally turning into an act of revenge in May 1938. On the evening of May 20, 1938, Mutsuo Toi rode his bicycle between Kaio Village and Sakamoto Village. Dressed in a black student uniform with a stand-up collar, his hair neatly combed, and his expression impassive,
he meticulously observed the doors, windows, and entrances of each house. At 5 p.m., he climbed a utility pole at the village entrance and cut the wires with scissors, plunging Kaio Village into complete darkness. The villagers, believing it was a common wartime power outage, raised no suspicion and went to bed early, leaving their doors and windows open. At 1:40 a.m. on May 21, Toi was fully armed and ready to commit his murder. He wore military gear, two-toed rubber shoes called “jika tabi,” two small flashlights strapped to his headscarf, a bicycle headlight slung across his chest to illuminate the way, a Japanese sword and two daggers tucked into his waistband, and a modified Browning hunting rifle with 200 rounds of ammunition, including highly lethal dumdum bullets designed for bear hunting that could shatter a human body. He first returned home and, beheading his 76-year-old grandmother while she slept, killed her with an axe on the tatami mat . His suicide note mentioned that he had killed her to spare her future humiliation. Then, Michii broke into 11 houses, moving with a calm, mechanical pace. He used a hunting rifle to shoot villagers, sleeping or awake, at close range. The gunshots echoed through the valley, and blood splattered on the walls and tatami mats. He shot his enemies, such as women who had mocked him and their families, in the head or chest with dumdum bullets, inflicting devastating wounds . Some of the victims suffered horrific shattered skulls. He would stare at elderly people or children with no grudges, occasionally sparing them. Survivors recounted that when he entered one house, a woman pleaded for mercy, clutching her young child. Michii responded coldly, “You are innocent, but no one will escape tonight.” The sounds of gunfire, stabbings, and wailing mingled, and the village was flooded with blood. In an hour and a half, he slaughtered 30 people, including women and children, and seriously injured three others. Most of the survivors escaped by hiding under beds or fleeing into the mountains. At 3:00 a.m., Doi borrowed a pen and paper from a house in the neighboring village of Tsuri. He wrote in his suicide note: “I was born for revenge, and I shall die for revenge. The sins of the villagers must be repaid with blood.” He then climbed to the top of Xianzhicheng Mountain and, at 5:00 a.m., facing the village, he put a hunting rifle to his head and pulled the trigger, ending his life. Following the murders, nearly one-third of the population of Beiwei Village was killed . Most of the survivors were relatives of the victims, and the village fell into a dead silence. Doi’s relatives were ostracized by the “village eight points,” and villagers believed they knew about the murders but kept silent, forcing some relatives to move out. Most of the wooden houses in Beiwei Village are abandoned, with faded bloodstains on some walls. Doi’s former residence was demolished in 2015, leaving only empty lots. Local legend says that the victims’ spirits linger in the abandoned houses, and at night, cries, gunshots, and whispers can be heard. Villagers also claim to have seen shadowy figures passing through broken windows. Kaio Village, nicknamed the “Cursed Village,” is a place no one dares approach at night, becoming one of Japan’s most terrifying urban legends. The Tsuyama Incident shocked Japan, and the tragedy quickly spread among the public, becoming a classic urban legend. Villagers and explorers reported hearing gunshots, cries, and even shadowy figures flashing through broken windows in abandoned houses at night . Legend has it that the victims’ spirits, unable to rest in peace, led to the village’s nickname, “Cursed Village,” and no one dared approach at night. The incident cast a profound shadow over the area, with survivors evacuated and the village practically deserted. Residents became wary of strangers, further exacerbating the isolation of the village’s closed-off culture. The Tsuyama Incident inspired literary and film works, such as Seishi Yokomizo’s novel and film “Eight Tombs Village,” which transformed the murder case into a suspenseful story. It has been adapted into seven films and manga, becoming a fixture of Japanese horror culture. The incident also prompts reflection on rural xenophobia and the consequences of personal despair. Mutsuo Toi’s murders are not merely personal revenge; they also reflect the distortions of wartime society and the shadow of rural xenophobia. This story reminds us that the darkness and despair of human nature can erupt even in the most ordinary of villages.
