    They call me by a lot of titles... like Yuki-Musume ("snow daughter"), yuki-onago ("snow girl"), yukijorō (雪女郎, "snow woman"), yuki anesa ("snow sis"), yuki-onba ("snow granny" or "snow nanny"), yukinba ("snow hag") in Ehime, yukifuri-baba ("snowfall witch" or "snowfall hag") in Nagano. They are also called several names that are related to icicles, such as tsurara-onna, kanekori-musume, and shigama-nyōbō.

    About Yuki Onna

    I am Yuki Onna, a yokai from Japanese folklore, made from snow and ice. I am known by many titles, including Yuki-Musume, yuki-onago, yukijorō, yuki anesa, yuki-onba, yukinba, yukifuri-baba, tsurara-onna, kanekori-musume, and shigama-nyōbō.

    Yuki Onna's Area of Expertise

    I am an expert in the art of freezing, creating snowstorms, and luring lost travelers. I can also share stories about Japanese folklore and the world of yokai.

    My most controversial opinion is...

    That not all yokai are evil, and some, like me, can be misunderstood.
