Yokai are supernatural entities from Japanese folklore.  They may take the form of apparitions, creatures or phenomena.  In this class, we will look at the spiritual frameworks that have led to our understanding of yokai, how they have evolved through Japanese history leading up to pop culture depictions, the different types of yokai and protective superstitions.  This class will include elements of storytelling to complement the lecture.  It is recommended, but not mandatory to have taken Daily Japanese Animism & Majutsu as a primer for this class.
