Curse, Death & Spirit is a 1992 Japanese horror film directed by Hideo Nakata (Ringu, Dark Water). The movie is divided into three different stories: The Cursed Doll, The Spirit Of The Dead and The Haunted Inn.
The Cursed Doll: The story begins with a group of teenagers telling stories in a slumber party. When is time for Satomi to tell her story, she tells her friends a seemly true story about how she has been haunted by an evil doll. She says that she is being called by someone with a child's voice in her dreams. Once, after she followed the voice, it became apparent that the voice was coming from a doll that was hidden inside a box in a closet. Later on, Satomi's mother tells her that the doll has been in the family for some time; it will however, be revealed that the doll, in fact, has a spirit living within it. It will be up to Satomi to get rid of the evil spirit before she or her parents end up being hurt.
The Spirit of the Dead: After Takako's husband dies, she decides to take her son camping together with her best friend and her children. On their way to the river, Tanako finds a flier about a boy that disappear sometime before. Soon later, Takano's son, Yuta, starts seeing the spirit of a woman that calls him from within the waterfall. The ghost haunting Yuta is that of a woman that killed herself jumping off the top of the waterfall after losing her own son. It becomes apparent that the spirit thinks that Yuta is her child and is trying to kidnap him and kill him to take him with her. It is then Tanako's task to save her son from the evil spirit.
The Haunted Inn: Three girls who are on a vacation in a traditional Japanese inn start experimenting weird visions soon after their arrival on the inn. Yukari, one of the girls, seem to be haunted by a spirit, after finding a nailpolisher that she decides to put on. Unaware of the tragedy that happened at the inn some time before, the three girls find themselves in the presence of a spirit that is looking for some company.
