Demon Tag Children
|
Children playing Demon Tag in Fatal Frame. This name could either refer to Mikoto and her friends, or the many children of the Himuro Family who participated in the Demon Tag Ritual.
Mikoto's Friends
The group of children that played Demon Tag with Mikoto Munakata in Himuro Mansion. They were from a nearby village and became friends with Mikoto after she moved there with her parents, Yae and Ryozo. They were all killed by Long Arms during one such game on June 24th (year unknown). One of the girls was pulled into the well in the Backyard by Long Arms; the other was pulled into the wall in the Doll Room by him. The boy was pulled into the clock in the Fireplace Room. They continue to play tag around Himuro Mansion.
Ritual Children
These children were girls over the age of 7 who participated in the Demon Tag Ritual. All the girls were members of the Himuro Family. During the ritual, the children would try to evade capture from the Oni. The first girl to be caught would become the next 'oni' and Blinded Maiden. The last girl to be caught would become the next Rope Shrine Maiden.
Misc. Info
- In two cutscenes in the 2nd Night, Miku senses ghostly children circling her and singing Kagome, Kagome. Although only girls participated in the Demon Tag Ritual, for some reason these ghosts are all boys.
