about

----------

Yōkai (妖怪, "strange apparition") are a class of supernatural entities and spirits in Japanese folklore.

Yōkai are also referred to as ayakashi (あやかし), mononoke (物の怪) or mamono (魔物). Despite often being translated as such, yōkai are not literally demons in the Western sense of the word, but are instead spirits and entities, although this comparison is more often applied to actively "antagonistic" yōkai. Their behaviour can range from malevolent or mischievous to benevolent to humans.

Yōkai often have animal like features but may also appear humanoid in appearance. Some yōkai resemble inanimate objects while others have no discernible shape. Yōkai are typically described as having spiritual or supernatural abilities, with shapeshifting being the most common trait associated with them.

A deafening silence becomes an unbearable blinding hum, the pulsing in your temples an industrial nightmare. ... more
