Onibaba (folklore)

is an Oni from Japanese folklore that has the appearance of an old woman but is a yōkai that feasts on humans. Variously known as the "Demon-Hag," "Old Hag," "Mountain Woman," "the Goblin of Adachigahara," and "Kurozuka," the Onibaba has many stories behind her name.〔Matt Alt and Hiroko Yoda, Yokai Attack! The Japanese Monster Survival Guide (Tokyo: Kodansha International, 2008).〕
==Characteristics==
The Onibaba has the appearance of a shriveled old woman. Some of her more distinctive features include having a disheveled, maniacal appearance, wild-looking hair, and an oversized mouth.〔 She is sometimes depicted with a kitchen knife or sitting with a spool of thread. She often conceals her demonic appearance in order to put visitors into a false sense of security.
The woman from whom the Onibaba originated is said to have lived in a cave or small house in and died close-by, in a place called . There is a small museum in Adachigahara that is said to hold her remains as well as the cooking pot and knife that she used on her victims.〔〔Schreiber, Mark, "(In Search of the fearsome Onibaba )", ''Japan Times'', 21 October 2012, p. 7〕
