Episode 35: A Trio of Japanese Ghosts

Noelle walks us through three famous ghosts from Japanese lore.

This story contains:

1. Yūrei are Japanese ghosts. (High Spirits goes International!)

2. Yūrei consists of two kanji: (yū), meaning "faint" and (rei), and meaning “spirit”. (Neat!)

3. The Slit-Mouthed Woman: Kuchisakeon'na. (The only time it’s OK to tell a woman she’s average!)

4. The Snow Ghost: Yuki-onna. (She’s pretty – but she will get YOU!)

5. Hunger Gods: Hidarugami. (Put rice in your pocket!)
