Rokurokubi and Mikoshi-nyudo, Japanese Demons

Ukiyo-e print illustration showing Rokurokubi and Mikoshi-nyudo, demons from Japanese folklore, frightening noodle shop customers to illustrate the proverb that "resistance is futile." Rokurokubi is a tale from Lafcadio Hearn's Kwaidan. It features a monster by the same name (in reality it features a nukekubi, not a rokurokubi). Mikoshi-nyudo is a type of bald-headed yokai "goblin" with an ever-extending neck who will frighten people who look over the top of things such as byobu folding screens. Woodcut by Kyosai Kawanabe, 1860s.
