Podnázev: Pôvodné maľby a tlače 100 duchov, démonov, strašidiel a čarodejníkov (orig.: Authentic Paintings and Prints of 100 Ghosts, Demons, Monsters and Magicians). Fascinujúci panteón japonských nadprirodzených bytostí. V tejto rozsiahlej knižnej zbierke nájdete démonov (jókai), duchov a zjavenia (júrei), duchov v hrách kabuki, čarodejníkov (jodžucuši), diablov či čertov (oni) a duše hľadajúce pomstu (onrjó) – mýtické javy a bytosti z folklóru a ľudovej kultúry, ktoré dodnes nadchýnajú čitateľov tradičných príbehov či komiksov manga. Kniha je encyklopedickým kaleidoskopom stovky takýchto bytostí s ich podrobnými opismi a ikonografiou. Každá bytosť je vyobrazená na ukážkach z pôvodných japonských drevorezov, kníh a obrazov z 18. a 19. storočia z múzeí, knižníc a zo súkromných zbierok po celom svete. Ilustrácie zobrazujú „originálne“ tradičné podoby a vzhľad týchto bytostí, ktoré tvoria základ všetkých ich neskorších zobrazení. Medzi najvýznamnejšie diela patria dva maľované zvitky – Zbierka strašidiel a Nočný sprievod stovky démonov – z fondu Minneapoliského inštitútu umenia, ktoré sú prvý raz reprodukované práve v tejto knihe.
