Ghosts In Japanese Prime Minister's House? Government Unaware Of Hauntings In Shinzo Abe's Home: TOKYO (Reuters) - A delay in Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and his wife moving into their official residence, the site of past assassinations, has revived talk of ghosts in the corridors, prompting the government to deny any knowledge of hauntings.
