In Japanese mythology, the ghost of a woman in love, sucking the life force out of her lover.
This ghost appears the same as it was in life: a young woman in the prime of her life and beauty. And only those whose eyes are not clouded by love, or true believers can see through the mask of her true image: a rotting, fetid skeleton that has risen from the dead.
At night, hone-onna gets up from the grave and goes to her lover's house. Every night, hone-onna sucks the life force out of the beloved, and he becomes weaker and weaker. If this is not prevented, then in the end he will die and join his mistress in the arms of death.
