#JLMyūreioftheday : Kuchisake-onna ✂️ Also known as the “slit-mouthed woman”, kuchisake-onna is an old but famous urban legend, with stories even dating back from the Edo period. It is said that she is a vengeful ghost of a woman who was mutilated by her husband by cutting the sides of her mouth. When she appears before a victim, she asks “Am I pretty?” If you answer yes, she will cut the sides of your mouth too with the huge pair of scissors she’s holding. If you answer no, she disappears but then follows you home where she kills you. However, it is said that there are many ways to escape her: confuse her by answering her question with a question, confuse her by quickly saying “you’re so-so”, or confuse her by throwing money or candies at her then say “I’m busy!!” ♀️#japanloverme Art by @littlemisspaintbrush -- source link
