Kouemon Description
The story of Yotsuya Kaidan, a woodblock print painted by Utagawa Kuniyoshi in the 19th century, is considered the most famous and influential of all Japanese ghost stories. It was first written by Tsuruya Nanboku IV as a Kabuki play.
The tradition of the grudge, a female ghost, has been carried on in today’s Japanese literature and movies, including the impossibly long shaggy hair and white faces that indicate a ghost in Kabuki.
