Description
The decrepit building was condemned long ago, but every time the owners try to tear it down, "accidents" start to happen-people get hurt, sometimes even killed. Mai Taniyama and her classmates have heard the rumors that the creepy old high school is haunted-possibly by ghosts from the Second World War. So one rainy day they gather at the old school to tell ghost stories, hoping to attract one of the suspected spirits.

No ghosts materialize, but Mai and her friends do meet Kazuya Shibuya, the handsome young owner of Shibuya Psychic Research, who's been hired to investigate paranormal activity at the school. Also at the scene are an exorcist, a Buddhist monk, a woman who can speak with the dead, and an outspoken Shinto priestess. Surely one of them will have the talents to solve this mystery!

Surprisingly good. by calstine on September 11th, 2009, 11:34pm

The thing about Ghost Hunt is, you never expect anything from it, seeing as the genre (romance, shoujo, supernatural) always seems to make for some truly boring stories. But if you try it, you'll see how engaging it is. The character interactions are very endearing, and none of the main characters are the least bit annoying. The protagonist might be a stereotyped shoujo heroine, but she's unexpectedly likeable.
The history behind each of the jobs that they take on, is very vividly described and easy to relate to. There are also very detailed and unbiased opinions on paranormal phenomena, both scientific and non-scientific, provided via the characters.
I was previously put off by the 'romance' bit- but seriously, that's not a major concern here; it's barely even noticeable.
This manga will most likely appeal to girls, but I don't think there's anything to prevent guys from reading it as well. Don't be put off by the 'shoujo' tag- this isn't your average sappy love story.

Mai =O_O= by Romashk on September 2nd, 2009, 6:54pm

I liked the anime and manga- maybe because the anime is like an animated manga(very similar in content). Anyway, I like both.
"Ghost hunt" is sometimes scary, but author provides you with comic relief and information(about west-east accult differences, for example), so it doesn't creep you out completely. Several times I flipped the pages like mad man, to see if Mai got out of the trouble she encounterd, but the more you follow her ventures into the world of unknow, the more intersting it gets.

RAN AWAY BEFORE YOUR HOOKED!!! by yumi15kl on March 10th, 2009, 9:13pm

Well I love these books very much. I'm addicted! To be honest it takes a lot to write a good horror msytery to the point were I dont normally like them because the plot sucks but i just loved these books. For a while i thought there wasnt gonna be a 10 but now there is work on an 11. awesome. I almost can't believe it. I was so happy it just keeps you geussing. It really is a good read but i think you should runaway while there is still time because if not you gonna end up as crazy as me waiting for the next one.

Excellent by cougarpeople on February 3rd, 2009, 1:17am

Story-Good, Character-BAD by seraimes on November 5th, 2008, 4:12pm

The story is not bad. I love the main guy but unfortunately I HATE the main girl in the manga. She got on my nerves so much I had to stop reading. This sucks since I actually like the storyline. I just couldn't stand the annoying main girl.

Highly recommended for fans of supernatural tales... by Lord_Lucifiel on April 15th, 2008, 10:23am

Unlike many other stories where conclusions are arrived at, based on slip-shod evidence and presumptive guesswork(with little to no investigative work), this manga takes its' time to establish the facts and evidence to carefully nurture a story.

Highly recommended for fans of occult and supernatural.

really good by empress on February 5th, 2008, 3:24pm

this manga is really good. i can't seem to stop reading it. i'm not much into horror and supernatural mangas but this one got me hooked. it's more like a detective story and i can't wait for the books to catch up.
