Following the success of Ju-On: The Grudge, director Takeshi Shimizu's sequel was released in the same year. The cursed building is now the setting for a TV special, presented by Tomoko Miura and directed by Keisuke, with special guest horror actress Kyoko Harase. But for each of them and other members of the crew, strange events presage the appearance of a ghostly young boy and a mysterious woman with long flowing hair, precursors of macabre deaths guaranteed to jolt any viewer out of their seat.
