A look at Hitoshi Yasuda's early history, Hummingbird Soft, and the games of the Ghost Hunter trilogy: Laplace no Ma and its many ports, globetrotting PC-98 horror RPG Paracelsus no Maken, and the 3DO game Kurokishi no Kamen, as well as some information about the Ghost Hunter tabletop RPG and the odd management decisions that led to this series becoming a bit more obscure than it probably should have.
