How to survive a Japanese monster attack

Matt Alt, author of “Yokai Attack,” gives a Pecha Kucha talk on how to survive some of the ickiest monsters from spooky Japanese fairy tales.

And below, Matt writes:

A few months back, I gave a talk about yokai to a group of students visiting Tokyo from the Oslo National Academy of the Arts. There are a lot of Norwegian folktales that resemble those from Japan – trolls and such – so they were a very receptive bunch. A few weeks ago, one of the students, Stian Tranung, mailed me photos of this beautiful yokai stamp set he made by hand after reading Yokai Attack. Very cool and I hope he considers mass producing them!
