Aokigahara, also known as the Sea of Trees (Jukai?), is a forest that lies at the base of Mount Fuji in Japan. The caverns found in this forest are rocky and ice-covered annually. It has been claimed by local residents and visitors that the woods are host to numerous amounts of paranormal phenomena. In recent years, it has become known as the "Suicide Forest" as it has become a popular destination for many to commit harakiri.
