Nice Lesson!
I hope there will be a lesson on kimodameshi too, that’s too fun when I see it in the animes

お化けを考えてるのは好奇心が強いけど、見るともちろん怖いですよね！。 
ところで、間違いを見つけた！On the last page of the Lesson Notes in the Vocabulary chart. お化けやしきのromanji reads “Obake yaki.”
皆さん、お化け焼を食べてみたいの？ハハ

As another listener pointed out, a short summary of a story is a ’synopsis’, not a ’synapsis’.

JP101-san!
I love ghost stories and haunting houses! 
even do I always been afraid of the dark since I was a child, I suffer from Panic disorders just like the singer Christian from the band RBD of Mexico City! 
There are also video games and anime about ghosts and evil that I enjoy so much too so this lesson was great!

Great lesson - love reviewing the bite size beginner stuff if only just for the stories 
Although a point about sweat pants - maybe it’s not the case out in Tokyo, but out here in Kansai wearing the all one color sweat pants and sweat shirt like you can buy in UNI-QLO seems to be a real trend with the high school kids, partcularly girls

Saitama has sort of a reputation of being uncool or perhaps dirty compared to Tokyo. I’ve heard it referred to as Dasaitama. Dasai + Saitama.
