Still time for 1 last Halloween post! Noppera-bō 🌸 The faceless ghost, is a Japanese legendary creature. They are often cheeky racoon dogs or foxes that enjoy spooking unsuspecting humans. They appear at first as ordinary human beings, sometimes impersonating someone familiar to the victim, before causing their features to disappear, leaving a blank, smooth sheet of skin where their face should be. #yokai #Nopperabo #faceless #100candlesgame #barekworld https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpg9gT3hkNY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=177lelx206gu1

Halloween deserves a Yokai HoneOnna (Bone Woman) Hone-Onna appears first time in a yōkai encyclopedia called Konjaku Gazu Zoku Hyakki, written in 1779 by Toriyama Sekien. The story in which the bone woman is mentioned is named Botan Dōrō ("The Peony Lantern"). It tells about a beautiful, but very skinny lady carrying a red lantern in shape of a peony flower and visiting men in attempt to sleep with them. While she may look beautiful, catching a glimpse of her reflection will reveal the bone woman.... 🏮💀🌸 #honneonna #skeleton #yokai #washipaper #100candlesgame #barekworld https://www.instagram.com/p/BpdIc2khipI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p9qhhmgp2e27
