GⅢ-Vol.166 Kumamoto City's Summer Specialty! 10th Anniversary of the Children's Fun Haunted House Archive Exhibition
Summary
At Kumamoto City Modern Art Museum, the 10th‑anniversary archive exhibition of the annual "Children’s Fun Haunted House" is presented, featuring mini haunted houses, floor plans, installations, and original sketches from past events. The haunted house, created by theater group Kirara’s representative Ikeda Miki and installation artist Abe Shogo of Namu Sanda, has been running since 2014, overcoming the Kumamoto earthquake and the COVID‑19 pandemic.

Additional related events include a commemorative talk titled "Shouts and Laughter Echoing in the Dark: Why We Focus on "Fun"" on September 26, and workshops such as "Haunted House Experience Workshop" and "Enjoying Ghost Stories" on October 4, all free of charge with prior registration required.
