Warai-onna: Japan's Deadly Laughing Spirit

Their defining characteristic is their lethally contagious laughter. Those who make the mistake of returning their smile or engaging with their laughter find themselves unable to stop laughing. This uncontrollable laughter often leads to a fatal fever, and even those who resist are not spared, as simply hearing the Warai-onna's laughter can induce psychosis or lifelong torment. The laughter of the Warai-onna is said to echo through the forests for miles, fading only if ignored. However, should anyone follow it, the consequences are dire.

Warai-onna are particularly active on the first, ninth, and seventeenth days of each month. Locals often warn against entering the mountains on these days, as encounters with these yokai are believed to be most frequent and dangerous. There are also male counterparts called Warai-otoko and a similar yokai named Kerakera-onna, known to appear in red light districts.

One famous tale tells of a samurai named Higuchi Kandayū, who ignored warnings and ventured into the mountains. He encountered a Warai-onna on Mount Tōkō, and her relentless laughter drove him and his retainers into a state of terror. Kandayū was haunted by the sound of her laughter until his death.

Even those who manage to escape an encounter with a Warai-onna are not truly free. Her laughter haunts them for the rest of their lives, an echoing reminder of the chilling encounter that follows them until death.

Warai-onna are not actively malevolent but are incidentally dangerous, much like natural disasters. Their presence is a chilling reminder of the supernatural dangers that lurk within Japan's ancient forests.

aka KEYMAN -The Hand of Judgement-

“Buhat pasultihon dili sulti pabuhaton," loosely translates to actions speak louder than words, or “walk the talk.”

Learning a Bisaya language might seem intimidating, or nonessential to some, but many popular tourist destinations in the country are in Bisaya-speaking areas. Though many Visayans speak English, a basic foundation in Bisaya enables you to connect to people on a deeper level. Luckily Baba Bisaya is holding online lessons once a week this September to November. They are offering classes on Hiligaynon (spoken in Panay and Negros), Cebuano (Central Visayas and Northern Mindano), and Waray-waray (Samar and Leyte). Follow them on Instagram at bababisaya and keep watch for free online events prior to start of classes. There will be an IG Live Q&A on August 20 and a free open house on August 31. Last day to enroll is September 2!
