Jinmenken: These spirits are dogs with human faces that run faster than you can see them. They can talk, but usually they only speak to say how they wish to be left alone.

Aka Manto: This is another toilet dwelling ghost. This one gives his victims the choice between red or blue toilet paper. Those who answer red bleed to death, blue gets you strangled.

Inunaki Village: No one knows if it truly exists, but legend has it that Inunaki village is a severely isolated town where no laws apply and anarchy reigns supreme. You are free to steal from, kill, or even eat anyone you want there. All who visit never return.

Kuchisake-onn: This demon is known as "the woman with a split face," and she is said to wear a surgical mask and ask strangers if she is pretty. If you say "no," she will kill you. If you say yes, she removes the mask and asks again. If you answer no, she will kill you. If you say yes, she will slit your mouth to look like her own.

The Girl In The Gap: One Japanese superstition holds that a spirit lives between the gaps of things like furniture and slightly open doors. If you catch eyes with the girl in the gap, you will be instantly transported to Hell.

Kune Kune: The kune kune spirit is often seen in fields. The apparition takes the form of a white sheet-like mist that moves similar to a worm. If you touch the kune kune, you will be driven insane.

Teke Teke: The legend of Teke Teke says that a woman was cut in half by an oncoming train and now crawls around town with a scythe, where she halves people and turns them into Teke Tekes.

Hitobashira: This was an ancient practice of putting human beings in pillars. People believed that this somehow made them stronger. To this day, buildings with pillars are said to be haunted by the people trapped in the pillars.

The Noppera Bo: The Noppera Bo beings (or "no face" beings) trick people into becoming their friend in order to steal their features.
