nureonas are considered to be vengeful and evil yokai spirits in japanese mythology
sure they love humans if by love you mean they love to eat you like a delicious meal
these beautiful sea vampires are mostly found on the coast of kyushu
in the southern part of japan the japanese word nureona literally means wet woman
because her body always appeared to be secreting watery liquid from the pores of her skin
since ancient times there have been many differing depictions of nure ona
she can be shown with or without arms in some representations her body can be as long as
327 meters that's large enough for its body to be present in two or more villages at the same time
noreona has a cute devilish smile but laughs like a demon while she laughs the victims of
nureona can see her forked tongue her upper body is so beautiful even mortal women would be jealous
her black shiny hair and attractive eyes are heavenly beautiful
meanwhile the lower half of her body looks terrifying nureona is physically strong capable
of killing 40 to 50 people with just one attack she can break boats trees and rocks with her tail
horrifyingly nure ona usually likes to play with her delicious human prey before she eats them
if you want to protect yourself from the horror of the nure onna then you must know the many ways
she hunts people and the deceptive tricks she uses sometimes she will disguise herself as a
woman carrying a baby asking you to help her for a moment other times she will attract men
to her by washing her beautiful long hair in the water sometimes she'll even shout for help while
pretending to be drowning in water in any of the situations if a person decides to approach her
then nureona has a perfect chance to attack her delicious prey she bites the legs of her victim
and injects poison into them first many times nureona can be seen with her beautiful friend
iso onna much like the nureona the iso-ona is no good for humans either iso onna usually likes
to tempt and attack fishermen while she wanders the sandy beaches of the western coast of japan
if a man asks the iso ona for a date he will almost certainly be found dead the next day
in the event that the people don't come to her so willingly
the iso ona can also use her hypnotic voice to capture human prey
according to mythology nureona appeared in a historical event
on the riverside border of the ishigo province and aizu in western japan
according to the story a small number of sailors saw the legendary creature
nureona the sailor spotted her while she was washing her beautiful long hair in the water
after witnessing the evil spirit they turn back in the opposite direction to warn upcoming sailors
about the danger posed by nure onna unfortunately the sailors on the other boats did not take the
warning seriously and instead they mock them as cowards and so a large number of boats went in
the direction of the nure onna despite the first boat's warning when they got near the nureona she
entangled each man with her long body one by one all the men screamed in pain but it was too late
they ultimately died as a result of suffocation and the bone-crushing power of neureona
