Tale#28 Yuki Onna (Snow Woman)

from G'niTales~Good Old Tales from around the World~ · host asako

Hello, fellow sleepy heads! Tonight, I am reading a story that may give you a chill. It's a Japanese folktale that's been told a long time ago in one region of where Tokyo is today. The title is Yukionna, which literally means snow woman in Japanese. While it has been told as a spooky story among people back in the day, The author, Lafcadio Hearn, known as Koizuni Yakumo in Japan, has written the story beautifully. Alright, bring your blanket (maybe two) and I hope you enjoy tonight's story.Music by: JuiceNarrator: AsakoFor any inquiries, please feel free to leave your comments or email to us to [email protected] !**You can also find us ⁠⁠@G'nitales on Apple, and @G'nitales on Amazon
