If the last update we got from the novels are from 1994, it's indeed unlikely for a second season to come, if all it has is two books. The only hope for this series then is some kind of OVA, which discusses the final two books. I'm not sure whether the creators are going to do this, though. After all, both Fruits Basket and xxxHolic had enough material left for more airtime, but both of them stopped after their 24th/26th episode. Ah, thanks for clarifying.

After the current anime story arc ends, there are two more cases in the novel series that have not converted into manga. Each case requires 2 books to complete. So that means there are 2 investigations spanning 4 books. The next case is written in the first person from Mai's point of view. This is the case where most of the answers regarding the mysteries of Naru are revealed. The second case is written from the traditional third person point of view. Because it's such a change from the first 7 cases, it's thought of as a second novel set. (Remember, it takes 2 books to solve this case.) The last novel was released in 1994. It's possible that the novelist will continue the series. But as time passes, the likelihood grows smaller. Also this morning, I learned that volume 10 of the manga has been pulled from the publisher's release schedule. I don't know any details as to why it was removed.

It that's the case, than I'm interested in seeing a continuation. It'll probably take a long while for it to arrive, though, if it's going to arrive in the first place.

Does the mangaka intend to only do the first novel and not the others? In which case, it does make sense to not do a second arc for the series. But the animators, dropped the filler episode, which makes me wonder why they'd do it, if they are anyways going to wrap up the show. I'm speculating, it could mean a second series - but that's just the optimist in me talking. It;s very good news about the manga though. I hope the novels are continued as manga, because although it isnt from Mai's POV anymore, the characters do come again together for more cases. I read somewhere, a triangle ensues as well, and I cant wait for that! =D But aren’t the novels still ongoing? Does the mangaka intend to only do the first novel and not the others?

I so wish there were more episodes because it would give the series a chance to do stuff like this again. Anyways I enjoyed it was a shame that they had to abandon the case. I just wish Ghost Hunt was this good always. This episode sent chills up my spine. I so wish there were more episodes because it would give the series a chance to do stuff like this again.

Masako was probably brought there by Urado's two henchmen to be used for the next round of blood-bathing. Gross, I know.

Because of that, I figured that she didn't even realize that she was transported, but now I see that that doesn't sound right.

I'm getting kinda sad that there is only 1 arc left.... we need way more of this.... 2 or 3 seasons would be fine... I am pro Mai all the way, but jealous Masako is darned cute too...

After all, all the other victims were killed as soon as Urado transported them.</i> You are assuming that Urado killed his victims immediately after transportation. However, that was never mentioned in the story if I recall correctly. The fact is that we don't know how long the persons were kept as prisoners before they were killed. The only thing we know regarding their time of death is that when Lin asked Naru what date he should use as Suzuki's death date for the summoning, Naru said to use the day after her disappearance. That suggests Naru suspects that Suzuki was not killed immediately after her disappearance but was kept as a prisoner for a while before her murder.
