Kwaidan is based on four short stories by Lafcadio Hearn, who came to Japan near the end of the 19^th century, took the Japanese name こいずみ　やくも and eventually became a Japanese citizen. (Hearn's other writings include some of the best examples of how Japan looked to western eyes during the Meiji Era.)
