Yuki-onna
(Rojas Téllez Sandra)

Yuki-onna, is associated with winter and snowstorms, it is said in some legends that seems to be the spirit of a person who died of cold in the snow. It is both beautiful and serene beyond his ruthless slaughter of unsuspecting mortals time. Until the eighteenth century, almost uniformly they portrayed as evil. Today, however, the color stories often as more human, emphasizing her ghostly nature and ephemeral beauty. In many stories, Yuki-onna to travelers who are trapped in snowstorms and uses her icy breath to leave them as corpses shaped ice sculpture is revealed. Other legends say astray so that die from exposure to cold. Other times, it manifests holding a child. When a well-meaning person takes in his arms the child she carries, that person is frozen in place. Parents looking their children are susceptible to this tactic.

Other legends make Yuki-onna much more aggressive. In these stories, often physically invades people's homes, blowing in the door with a gust of wind, to kill them in their sleep (although some legends that first have to be invited into the house). Yuki-onna varies from story to story. Sometimes simply pleased to note the death of their victims. Other times, it's vampire and sucks the blood of his victims or the "life force". Occasionally it takes the form of a succubus, hunting men of weak beliefs to drain or freeze them through sexual intercourse or a kiss
