('Ghost Story of Kasane Swamp'), also known as 'The Depths', or 'The Ghost of Kasane', is a 1957 black-and-white/ Scope Japanese horror film directed by Nobuo Nakagawa for Shintoho Films. The screenplay was based on a story called 'Shinkei Kasanegafuchi' by Encho Sanyutei. The film was never dubbed in English and is only available in subtitled format. It was a short film, running 57 minutes.

Daiei Film remade this film twice, once in 1960 (B&W/full screen) as 'Kaidan Kasane-ga-fuchi', and again in 1970 (Color/Scope) as 'The Masseur's Curse' (both directed by Kimiyoshi Yasuda). The 1960 version was never shown in the United States, nor was it dubbed in English.
