HI Samantha - this story made the hairs on my arm stand up! Like you, I would have run down the stairs. While I know you wrote you don't believe in other-worldly creatures, I have had too many encounters with such beings to not so I am glad you listened to your instincts. Best to always go with your gut. Thanks for sharing (this is inspiring a creative short story as I type) and have a good holiday.
What a joy to read of your experience with the tengu. Even though you were frightened at the time, you were left with an amazing venture to share with us. And the photos are so beautiful! Thanks, Sam! You brighten my day.
This was fantastic! So dreamy. And thanks for the pictures. I long to visit Japan one day. But I was a little disappointed you didn’t share a Tengu mask! Didn’t they have any for purchase?
The myths and legends of Japan! Just one of the many reasons we return time and time again, Samantha
Beautifully written, Samantha! I have yet to hear a tengu but will listen for it now!

Creepy!
Currently in Norway, so looking forward to that guide!
