Junya Ko¯no, Rokuro-kubi, 2013. Digital art. Courtesy of the artist. In this image, the artist Junya Ko¯no depicts a rokurokubi, or a long-necked female monster. The stretchy neck of a rokurokubi allows her to spy on a philandering husband or lover. Ko¯no also designed multiple elements of the Museum of International Folk Art’s ghost house, available to visit as part of Yo¯kai: Ghosts and Demons of Japan.
