Yaoguai of Yore
It's the season for spooky folklore, mythology and old wives' tales with our world ghost stories collection.
From the artist:
I was inspired by Yaoguai (妖怪) in Chinese lore and stories - my interpretations are my own.
The nine-headed bird (九頭鳥) is an early form of the fenghuang (phoenix). It is said to dwell in the Great Wilds to the North on a mountain.
The Zheng Ning (猙獰) is a creature that looks similar to a red leopard with five tails and a single horn. It lives on a mountain with no grass and trees. It sounds like striking stones.
Tree spirits appear often in Chinese mythology and sometimes will show up in human form as old men.
Bull Demon King (牛魔王) is a fictional character from Journey to the West, and often depicted in both bull form and a hybrid bull-human form (kind of like a minotaur).
Printed paper tape, perfect for any time you’d use regular tape, only cuter! Hang up artwork, use it in planners, journals, or for sealing and decorating mail. Easily peels off and leaves minimal residue on most surfaces. A perfect gift for the stationery lover in your life - or you!
