This is quite a good anime to begin your Halloween. The storyline is good and full of thrilling and mystical scenes. In the spring of 1998, a boy named Kouichi Sakakibara transfers to Yomiyama North Middle School’s class 3-3.
In this, same class, a very popular honor student named Misaki died partway through the school year in 1972. The rest of the students, devastated by this loss, decided to make it as if their classmates were still alive, going so far as to keep the desk in place and bring it to the graduation ceremony.
Yet no one could explain why their dead and buried classmate was present in the graduation photo. This is an extremely good anime to watch during Halloween or even after. I recommend you watch it even if it’s not during Halloween.
2. Hell Girl

Do you want to get revenge? Then head to the website Jigoku Tsuushin at midnight and write the name of the person who has been troubling you and if the person in charge admits it, that person will be sent to hell.
But beware as there is a price to pay. Those who asked for revenge are given a doll with a red string. The payback is carried out once its user pulls the string. But that’s not all once the users die, their souls will also be sent to hell.
