Gashadokuro
Oh little one, do you like spooky stories? Let me tell you about the Gashadokuro! It's a very scary monster from Japanese folklore.
You know how we have skeletons inside our bodies? Well, the Gashadokuro is like a giant skeleton monster that's as tall as a building! And it's not just any skeleton, it's made up of the bones of lots of people who died in battle and were left unburied. So it's a really angry monster because it's made up of all those people who weren't given proper respect when they died.
Now, this monster only comes out at night – when it's really dark and quiet – and it likes to sneak up on unsuspecting travelers who are traveling alone. It's so tall that it can reach down and grab you with its bony fingers! And it's not just a scary monster that wants to scare you – it actually wants to eat you up!
But how do you avoid getting eaten by the Gashadokuro? Well, it's said that if you hear a ringing in your ears, it means the monster is nearby. So you need to stay really quiet and still, and hope it doesn't hear you. You can also throw salt at it – apparently, salt repels these monsters, so it might be scared off by a handful of the stuff.
So in summary, the Gashadokuro is a giant monster made up of angry bones from people who died in battle. It comes out at night to scare and eat travelers, and the only way to defeat it is by staying quiet, throwing salt, or running away as fast as you can!
