Shiho Inada and Fuyumi Ono's Akumu no Sumu Ie: Ghost Hunt manga ended in the September issue. The third and final volume of Akumu no Sumu Ie: Ghost Hunt will ship on October 7.

Akumu no Sumu Ie: Ghost Hunt adapts Ono's 1994 novel Akumu no Sumu Ie; this novel serves as a followup to the original Akuryō novels that inspired the first Ghost Hunt series. Due to its rarity, the Akumu no Sumu Ie novel is known as the "elusive sequel" among fans.

In the original Ghost Hunt series, high school girl Mai Taniyama encounters Shibuya Psychic Research, a paranormal investigation agency led by a tall, dark, handsome — and, naturally, aloof — teenager (who Mai nicknames "Naru" after the English word "narcissist"). Before long, Mai joins the ranks of the agency, whose associates include a Chinese occultist, a world-famous psychic, a self-proclaimed Shinto shrine maiden, a former Buddhist monk, and a Catholic exorcist.

In Akumu no Sumu Ie, Mai, "Naru," and the rest of Shibuya Psychic Research investigate the paranormal phenomena transpiring in the home of the character Midori's mother. ARIA published new chapters every other month. The second volume shipped in April 2014.

Inada ended the first Ghost Hunt series in 2010, and Del Rey published 11 of the 12 volumes from the first series in North America. Funimation licensed and released the 25-episode television anime version of the manga on DVD in 2008.
