Internationally famous for being one of the most mysterious and haunted destinations of Japan, Kiyotaki Tunnel is the single-lane route connecting northern Arahiyama to the neighboring town of Sagakiyotaki. With a history of violence, ill-omens, and suicide, Kiyotaki Tunnel is a hub of apparition sightings, bad luck, and cautionary tales.

Originally part of the Atagoyama Railway built from 1927-1928, Kiyotaki Tunnel is roughly 5000 meters in length, and it is claimed the tunnel was constructed by slaves (The term 'slave' is a loose translation as the workers were legally employed without pay.) There are a number of reported fatalities including those of workers who succumbed in accidents or harsh working conditions, victims of railway incidents, and people who were executed around the area. 

It is said the spirits of these fatalities can be seen wandering the tunnel at night.

It conjunction to rumors starting the tunnel is 444 meters in length ('4' being an unlucky number for its reading of 'shi, seeing spirts reflected in the roads mirrors situated outside the tunnel entrances or in any car mirrors is said to bring about a violent, painful fate. There are also claims the traffic signals outside the tunnel can change suddenly from red to green at night, causing accidents with oncoming traffic. 

The area is said to be popular suicide spot due to the woodland seclusion and sturdiness of the trees above the tunnel. There si a rumor of a woman who leapt to her death from the road located above the tunnel entrance, and there are stories of still being able to see her spirt.

As well as the above, sources also claim:

-'scary' incidents occur late at night when entering the tunnel

-a woman's scream can be heard at night from the forest around the area

-the length of the tunnel changes when making a return trip (though, it can be argued the slope changes depending on which side of the tunnel is entered; Arahiyama to Kiyotaki slopes downwards, making it deceivingly shorter)

-a woman wearing white is know to run from the tunnel and jump on the bonnets of cars waiting at traffic signals

-dizziness, nausea, and headaches can occur while traveling through the tunnel (though, this may be due to poor ventilation and build up of the exhaust fumes)

-it is warned all of the ghost activity occurs at night, and alternative route is recommened
