About the Event
Have you ever heard of yokai?
A yōkai (妖怪) is a supernatural creature or spirit from Japanese folklore, often embodying mysterious, eerie, or mischievous qualities. Ranging from shape-shifting animals to haunted objects and ghostly apparitions, yōkai reflect fears, moral lessons, and the rich imagination of Japan’s mythic past.
Get ready for a Yōkai takeover at the Japanese Friendship Garden—mischievous spirits and costumed staff will roam among glowing lanterns and spooky decorations, and you can unleash your own creativity by dressing as your own yokai persona.
