Unveil the Mythology of Japan!
Step into the lantern-lit realms of misty mountains, moonlit rivers, and haunted temples with the Encyclopedia of Mythical Creatures: Yokai & Japanese Mythology Volume. This beautifully illustrated bestiary unveils a world where spirits dwell in every shadow, foxes dance between illusion and truth, and ancient gods whisper through thunder, flame, and rain. From the snow-capped peaks of Hokkaido to the sacred forests of Kyoto, each page reveals the pulse of a land where beauty and terror walk hand in hand, and where the unseen governs the seen.

Discover Legendary Beings and Timeless Spirits:
Meet the nine-tailed Kitsune who bends hearts and destiny, the mischievous Kappa who lurks beneath still waters, and the fearsome Oni who tests human courage. Cross paths with the mournful Yuki-onna, the seductive Jor¿gumo, and the prophetic Amabie who rises from the sea to warn of plague. Wander mountain passes where the Tengu guard hidden shrines, and misted cemeteries where the Shinigami collect wandering souls. Rooted in Shinto reverence for nature, Buddhist visions of karma, and the storytelling spirit of Edo folklore, these tales illuminate Japan's eternal dialogue between purity and corruption, devotion and desire, life and the lingering afterlife.
