A Samurai, a Witch and a Yōkai
Japan has a unique history and rich culture from a universally known group of warriors like the samurai to the diverse spiritual world of yōkai and otherworldy beings. What's most fascinating about places like Japan is when their history and folklore mesh together, making for interesting tales like the story of a man who became the first samurai and how a sorceress brought him back as a vengeful spirit.

The Hidebehind
In The Hodag and other Tales of the Logging Camps, author L.S. Kearney writes, "During my career as a cruiser, I have seen many strange things that are not to be found in books. I have learned of the prehistoric animals that inhabited this world back at the beginning, but the monstrosity I am about to mention, must be the missing nondescript. I will call it the hide-behind, because of its habit of hiding behind trees."
