Ashes of the Undead: Unearthing Hiroshima's Darkest Secrets (Unabridged‪)‬

The Hiroshima bombing on August 6, 1945, marks a pivotal and haunting moment in history, one that resonates deeply in the realms of horror and the supernatural. As the first city to be targeted by an atomic bomb, Hiroshima became the epicentre of devastation and human suffering, leaving an indelible mark on the collective memory of humanity. The bomb, nicknamed "Little Boy," was dropped by the American B-29 bomber Enola Gay, resulting in an immediate and catastrophic loss of life. Within seconds, an estimated 70,000 people were killed, with countless others succumbing to injuries and radiation-related illnesses in the following years. This event not only ended World War II but also birthed an era shrouded in fear and uncertainty, a theme that resonates strongly within horror literature and ghostly narratives.
