Legends have it in ancient Japan…

…on auspicious nights every month a hundred supernatural spirits of folklore come out at night to parade through the streets …

…this is the Hyakki Yagyou, led by the powerful Nurarihyon…

Tonight is one of those nights…

…and we are those hundred spirits that will be on parade to haunt the enemies of freedom...

....where we go one...WE GO ALL!

Welcome once again to Saturday Night Hyaaki Yagyou hosted by your one and only man of culture, u/Nurarihyon_no_MAGA

This is a weekly thread dedicated to sharing some forgotten folklore of the Americas and comparing it to other folklore around the world.

u/Narg made the perfect summary for why I am making these weekly threads:

The problem with society, here and in most places in the world, isn't just corruption or tyranny or Satanism or whatnot, but an unbalanced focus -- too much rational, logical, mechanical, nuance-blind, empathy-poor, context-poor left brain attention versus the more organic, spiritual, three-dimensional, connected, context-rich right-brain attention. In life, we need both forms of attention, but balance is needed and the left hemisphere's form of attention must never become dominant in a culture (or one's life). Getting familiar with other cultures can help with that.
