Yōkai 101: Exploring the Thrill of Japanese Folklore

This special program is dedicated to yōkai, supernatural entities and spirits that appear in many Japanese tales. Yōkai play an important role in modern Japan, as they not only appear in folklore narratives told to children, but also feature in video games, manga, and anime. Yōkai have become increasingly popular in the U.S. with the spread of Japanese pop culture, like the video game series Yokai Watch. Professor Michael Dylan Foster from UC Davis shares his knowledge on the world of yōkai along with Matthew Meyer, a popular yōkai artist.
