How to say "haunting" in Japanese

• 忘れられないわすれられない
  i-adjectiveA less common rendering of the figurative sense: a haunting image, melody, or experience that lingers in the mind. It literally means 'cannot be forgotten', stressing the lasting impression more than any eerie feeling.
  ここは、私わたしたちが初はじめて出会であった忘わすれられない場所ばしょだ。↗

  This is the unforgettable place where we met each other for the first time.
• 怪奇現象かいきげんしょう
  nounA less common choice for the ghostly sense: eerie happenings, as when a house is said to have a haunting. It is a noun for strange phenomena, not a word for a lasting memory.

Both are less common choices: pick 「忘れられない」 when haunting describes something emotionally unforgettable that lingers in the mind, and 怪奇現象 when it names eerie, unexplained happenings or phenomena.
