Backstory
Morioh is a suburb of S City. Although it quickly developed during the 1980s, it was inhabited even in the ancient days of the samurai. It had many martial arts training grounds and vacation homes, where its summer attractions may have come from.

Even now, there are still many villas of samurai left. Not much earlier Morioh had been just a rural town where one could find only rice and vegetable fields. The country town was run mostly by agriculture business, and as a result people in there had hard and cracked hands. They often needed to check on the water in the paddy fields in the middle of the night. There was at least one area in the Northeast famous for an old summer retreat.

Morioh eventually underwent a transformation in an age where places all over Japan were getting better. M Prefecture's government officials decided to invest money in Morioh to develop it, as its population was quickly increasing with workers from the adjacent S City. The streets were repaired, shops and markets were built and pretty houses were lined up on the land that used to be rice fields. Power lines and telephone poles that harmed the views disappeared or were abandoned (including one that would later be bound to the Stand ).

With the development of town, many of the people came back to live in Morioh.

S City
S City of M Prefecture is a city adjacent to Morioh. It was undergoing lots of forays to new enterprises. People working there were seeking to take residence and came to Morioh, quickly expanding the town's population.

S City was much more modern than Morioh: People often compared life in there with the ones seen on TV dramas. Some people that didn't want a rural life or take a modern job went in there after graduating in high school in search of a job, but market was competitive.

Summer Attractions
Every year on July 1, rivers and beaches open up to the public in Morioh. Because of this, the date range from July to August is the season for travelling and tourism. 70% to 80% of the total tourism revenue of Morioh is brought in during this time. The number of domestic and international visitors coming from the Tokyo area or S city nearly doubles the population.

Popular Activities include Vacation Resorts, golfing, camping, fishing, picnicking, yachting, windsurfing, tasting local seafood and traditional Japanese products, and visiting the mysterious underwater palace. All are main attractions that ensure a good time in Morioh over the summer.

The local fishermen all pray for good luck to this particular rock, calling it a 'sacred spot'. Many also believe that there is a god of the sea at work.

Ghost Girl's Alley
Ghost Girl's Alley presents itself as a normally invisible road situated near the side of the Owson grocery, 2nd block in Morioh. To get there, one should take the number 11 bus from Morioh station then get off at the Kotodai shopping district and look for the Owson grocery. Only those attuned to seeing ghosts, like Stand Users and other ghosts, can see it.

Ghost Girl's Alley has the appearance of an ordinary residential road where every house is walled and abandoned. After the entrance road, the way forks in two opposite directions where other houses are visible. Apart from the houses, the only landmarks are a mailbox near which there is fresh dog excrement and an unplugged vending machine.

The alley is unique in that it serves as the border between the world of the living and the afterlife, essentially being a. Every time someone dies in Morioh, their spirit finds itself into the alley before possibly passing on to the afterlife. However, a dead person with sufficient determination can simply haunt the alley and the area near the Owson store. Moreover, space distorts itself in the alley. If someone walks from into either end of the main street and turn at the inevitable corner, they will find themselves at the fork again; if something also flies high enough into the sky, they will find themselves bumping against the ground. Thus anyone who enters the alley may be trapped. However, the entrance road will always lead out of Ghost Girl's Alley.
