Anyone know anything about any ape yokai? I can never find any info on such a creature other than this image.

>>12369111
Yeah, I guess so. Those are generally said to be a lot of them rather than just one walking around. One of my professors once described meeting a Tengu when he was riding through the forest at night. He didn't know what a tengu was until I told him. It was like a dead on description of what a tengu was too. It must have wondered through Hokkaido, through Russia, to the Alaskan Islands, all the way down the beach of California. I can recall the story if you like.

I don't know about the yeti being a yokai, but believe it or not the yeti stories from Tibet, Nepal, and Bhutan are pretty popular in Japan since the early 90's. Several well known Japanese archeologists have gone over there and returned to talk about what they saw on Japanese TV shows and even have appeared on American TV documentaries.

While in Japan I picked up a bi monthly horor/supernatural manga magazine that has the yeti on the cover attaching a Japanese hiker.

Sorry to tell you but big foot is probably just a half breed demon whose mum was an ancient ape.

I actually haven't heard anything of this bunny man!
Please go on.
And yes, I'm sure that would count as a modern yokai, just like the Tiek Tiek woman.
