is a creature illustrated in Toriyama Sekien's ''Konjaku Hyakki Shūi''. It resembles a small dog covered entirely in long hair. Its name is a pun - when written with different kanji (希有怪訝), ''keukegen'' means "an unusual thing which is rarely seen". According to one report, the ''keukegen'' is a disease spirit which lives in damp, dark places and causes people in the house to get sick. ==References== * * (Mizuki Road: Keukegen ) * (CSK: Hyakki Yagyō: Keukegen ) * Japanese Wikipedia: Keukegen 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Keukegen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
