It’s been a little while since I’ve done anything with GeGeGe no Kitarō, and I thought there was a little potential here. Even though he’s not overtly inhuman, I do think Kitarō would feel more comfortable living where the Halloween and similar characters live in the Studio. I don’t remember if I’ve talked about the haunted castle publicly before, but Kitarō and anyone else who’d feel more comfortable there have their own spooky home in the Studio. I wanted to show Kitarō getting along with someone else who lives there, and decided to go with Silas since there’s been some demand.
