For centuries, strange creatures have haunted Japanese folklore, their powers and intentions wrapped in mystery. Some are bizarre, others downright terrifying, but all of them leave a lasting impression on those who encounter them. Today, we uncover the dark legends and many wide-ranging examples of the supernatural entities known as Yokai.
