#GhostlyRevenge—Oiwa and her disfigured face haunts her traitorous husband in this iconic image of her angry spirit merged with a lantern, drawn by Hokusai. As Japan's most famous ghost story, #YotsuyaKaidan continues to influence Japanese #horror even today. #FolkloreThursday
Oiwa is a Japanese ghost, the vengeful spirit of a young woman betrayed by her husband. He disfigured her face in an attempt to get rid of her so he could marry a younger woman. She cursed the pair on her death & returned to haunt all who had betrayed her.

“I am bent, but not broken. I am scarred, but not disfigured. I am sad, but not hopeless. I am tired, but not powerless. I am angry, but not bitter. I am depressed, but not giving up.” ~Unknown

[Random Touhou trivia: Yukkuri]
Difficulty: Easy
Yukkuris are non-canon creatures and a common meme which involves disfigured heads of various characters.
Their names originates from their catchphrase: "Yukkuri shiteitte ne!" which can be loosely translated as "Take it easy!".
@CaptMarvelology The Spectre has been disfigured before.
Still an impressive feat by Black Adam none the less.
@CartoonFan18 Warrior cats has a lot. Rainflower disowned her son after he was disfigured, Tigerstar psychologically abused his kids while encouraging another son to emotionally abuse his own sister, and Lizardstripe not giving a crap about her kids while abusing her foster son into villainy.

Day 123: Disfigured, judgment unfair,
No child she could bear.
Sent far away, her soul had died
But for revenge, her body survived.
So swift may someone meet the end,
At the hands of the horid maiden.
Some takes on my Garlean, Vespillo mal Celsus. Formerly of the XIVth Legion, his path to defecting from the Empire was laid when an aetherochemical explosion disfigured his face and ruined his career. He's laid-back, but bitter and vain.

THE GHOST STORY OF YOTSUYA (1959). Must be funny, in a rich man's world? Not if you are haunted by the disfigured corpse of the wife you murdered to get your hands on that money. Spooky samurai tale of a vengeful ghost.

@Solarlightphase Ever seen the shots without the FX? Amazing how they made them appear disfigured without no actual new make up applied.
Bretwalda the Wicked. Born disfigured into a noble family. Feeling always inadequate and humiliated she turned her attention to valuables believing that adorning herself with lucre will increase her own value.

"From wrong to wrong the exasperated spirit
Proceeds, unless restored...
Where you must move in measure, like a dancer.
The day was breaking. In the disfigured street
He left me, with a kind of valediction,
And faded on the blowing of the horn."
T.S. Eliot.
Four Quartets (1941)
#watched THE FREAKMAKER (1974).
A mad professor plans to create a race of human-plant hybrids. Naturally, he allies himself with a disfigured freak show owner so the movie can be 10x trashier.
Thanks to @diabolikdvd for bringing this grindhouse favorite to blu ray. 📽️ #horror
@StanDarkdart , who suffers from cerebral palsy, has been doing a series of drawings based on both my sculpture of the woman disfigured by tertiary syphilis, and the photograph which inspired it. His expressions of pain. Contact Stan if you'd like to own his original art!
#StanWinston's PUMPKINHEAD (1988) was released 32 years ago this weekend.
@LanceHenriksen starred as a man who seeks to avenge the death of his son with the help of a witch, a disfigured corpse, and a demonic monster.
Things don't go as planned. 🎃
Palpatine and Davros are basically the same person. Hear me out:
-Evil overlords
-Over the top disfigured + wrinkly faces
-Gravelly voices
-On life support
-Use hate as a driving force
-Convenient plot devices
-FREAKING LIGHTNING FINGERS I MEAN COME ON
