Fatal Frame Transforms an Ordinary Hobby Into Bone-Chilling Horror

Fatal Frame creator and director Makoto Shibata has said the most frightening thing is people's imaginations, which are populated by monsters we can't see. When designing the first installment of the series, he wanted to make a game that would terrify players at the mere idea of grabbing the controller, and he did so unconventionally: by having players take photos of ghosts.
