The Chyld Chronicles (known in Japanese as Sai no Kawara; さいの川原) is a horror-mystery franchise developed by The Ferguson Company in 1987. The series originally began as a video game series which soon expanded to more media, including: three films, a television series, some body pillows, a comic book series, and other merchandise. The franchise mainly takes the point-of-view of an escaped sociopathic mental patient―Chyld, whom is forgetful of his own past, and commits mass genocides wherever he roams.
