Yuki-Onna is a figure from Japanese folklore, often depicted as a beautiful woman dressed in white, with long black hair and pale skin. She is associated with snow and winter, appearing during snowstorms. Yuki-Onna is known for her ethereal beauty and can be both benevolent and malevolent, depending on the story. In many tales, Yuki-Onna encounters travelers lost in the snow. She may help them find their way or, in darker versions, lead them to their demise. Her character embodies the duality of nature, representing both the beauty and danger of winter's harshness.
