A creature from Japanese folklore. This is a giant skeleton that is fifteen times taller than a man of average height, which consists of the bones of those people who died of starvation. It wanders in the night, baring its teeth, and making terrible noises. It moves so high above the ground, and so quietly, that it can be practically invisible. When attacked, he tears off his head and sucks the blood.
