From
the Back Cover --
For centuries Japanese folklore
has been haunted by ghosts and demons. Through rich oral traditions the
stories have been passed from generations, and interpreted in a myriad
of art forms, from wood block carvings, to illustrations, to the
theater. Now artist Dave Fox unleashes his inimitable style on this
world of poltergeists.
In an hommage to Japanese Artist Yoshitoshi, Fox has created a
guidebook of thirty-six of his own visions. Using the traditional
legends as a road map, he interprets the stars of these tales with a
vivacious execution and a Western tattoo artist's edge. Beware, once
this book is opened you too will be haunted...
