I encountered this station by accident one summer while on a cross-Japan trip. I was doing the cheap but slow Seishun 18 Kippu thing. All the passengers that had boarded at Kanazawa had gotten off and I was the only one in the car. I looked up from my book as the train neared a mountain and then it was dark outside. I'd been through lots of tunnels before, no big deal.

But then the train slows down and stops at this station in the middle of the mountain. There's an announcement but it's so echoey that I miss it. I think they're saying the train is going to stop for 10 minutes but I'm not sure. I poke my head out. I eventually look around but I take all my gear with me - I don't want the train to suddenly take off with my stuff on it. I stand for awhile looking up at the staircase going up into the rock, feeling it suck the air upwards, wondering what the heck is at the top.

I found this experience to be frickin' cool and random rather than creepy. Years later Google Maps let me visit the station at the top and it was pretty much just a boring local station with a couple unique features.
