Graveyards & Ruins

About This Habitat

Yokai that inhabit graveyards, abandoned buildings, ruins, and other places associated with death and decay. These liminal spaces, charged with the energy of the departed, attract spirits and supernatural beings. Will-o'-the-wisps (hitodama) float above graves, skeletal figures (gashadokuro) rise from mass burial sites, and various apparitions haunt crumbling temples and forgotten estates.
