Hanako-san, or Hanako from the toilet

Hanako, promotional poster

A certain urban legend says that when you knock at the third stall of the girl's bathroom on the third floor and cry out loud "Hanako-san, are you here?", a voice will say "Yes!".
If you decide to enter the stall, you will see a little girl in a red skirt. What happens next varies to regions.

Indeed one of the oldest urban legend to arrive in modern Japan.

Hanako is said to be a Japanese elementary schoolgirl from the 50s who died in mysterious circumstances and haunts nowadays every restrooms of Japan, the third door of the third floor to be precise.
