Kuchisake-Onna

Kuchisake-Onna, a ghost, approaches a young man walking home from a late night after dropping a friend off at her house. She asks if he thinks she is pretty while wearing a surgical mask. She will kill him if he says no, but will take off the mask and ask again if he answers yes. She will kill him if he seems to think she is ugly after removing the mask. However, if he still says she is pretty then she will cut a smile into his face resembling her own facial disfiguration. She will be confused if he happens to throw candy at her feet at any point. A disturbing apparition of a woman with an ever-present grin cut onto her face, covered by a surgical mask. She dresses nice with a coat hiding surgical scissors and her voice is husky and haunting, filled with a mixture of curiosity and hostility. Once a normal, beautiful woman with long straight black hair, she met a tragic end when she was brutally murdered. The hope of being called beautiful is what keeps her tied to this earthly realm.
