🏮Fun fact about this Yokai's name: The #Yokai called #Chochin-obake means "paper lantern ghost" in the #Japanese language! And it is a subcategory of #Tsukumogami, which means "possessed object" in the same language!👻

From what I read about the #Nukekubi and the #Rokurokubi, the #Rokurokubi is a #Yokai with a long neck while the #Nukekubi is a #Yokai with a detachable head! But they are similar in a sense!
