Thriller Restaurant (TV)

Alternative title:
Kaidan Restaurant (Japanese)
Ресторан ужасов (Russian)
怪談レストラン (Japanese)
Themes: kids, stories
Plot Summary: Shou transfers from London into Ako's class at Yamazakura Elementary School. Because strange things are always happening in Yamazakura, people call it a cursed town. It's a good thing Shou is interested in paranormal phenomena, because in each episode he, Ako (whom everyone calls Anko), and their friend Reiko are in three short horror stories introduced by the ghostly garçon of the restaurant. But don't worry. The restaurant adjusts the spices so those who don't like scary stories can still enjoy the meal.
