"The Haunted Castle" (秘録怪猫伝 Hiroku Kaibyō-den), Original Japanese First-Release Movie Poster 1969, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) ZA195

Sale price $110.00

This is an original Japanese B2 poster printed in 1969 for The Haunted Castle (秘録怪猫伝), a late-’60s Daiei Studios period horror from the celebrated “kaibyō” (ghost-cat) lineage—samurai melodrama crossed with supernatural vengeance. Set around a feudal domain rotting with intrigue, a wronged spirit returns in feline form to punish the guilty, delivering that uniquely Japanese blend of elegance and dread.

Design
An electrifying collaged nightmare: the fanged, yellow-eyed cat-spirit looms across the sheet in a storm of wild hair and smoke, its claws framing vignettes of swordplay, temple gates, and terrified nobles. Vertical scarlet kanji for 怪猫伝 slash down the right, balanced by turquoise studio credits at the base. The side column of copy promises a night of ceaseless terror—pure golden-age Japanese yokai poster energy.

Condition
Very Good: light handling and waviness with edge nicks at the margins; a few small surface scuffs; colours strong with excellent display presence. Please review the photos—they show the exact poster for sale.
