November 1995: The Kaidan kids discover a haunted bathroom and the dead girl's handwriting keeps appearing in the bathroom. Inagaki Goro with his dead wife and a bird. The lady traveler is back.

August 1996: One of the Kaidan members are posessed and a story about UFO sightings.

REVIEW: 

I recommend this drama series to young adults, teens and children.  It's basically stories that deal with weird things but it stars popular young adult and child stars of today.  In the beginning, it was scary but after 1995 the show concentrated on very young children and the storyline was going from Cyborgs to Time travelling cops.  All in all it's fun to watch but I wished it stayed in the scarier side. It's not a ratings buster but it is fun to watch.  No rating on this one since there are too many shows.
