Obake Family Day returns to Japan Society, this time with more ghosts and goblins than before! Lurking within the nooks and crannies of Japan Society are brazen obake, kooky yokai and other curious characters from Japan’s fantastical body of folklore waiting to be discovered through storytelling, crafts, film, a scavenger hunt and more! This year’s event includes performances by the colorful pop duo Charan-Po-Rantan within their very own haunted circus tent and a trip to Japan’s southern islands of Okinawa to meet the legendary creatures that live there. Come dressed in your favorite costume and see how many mysterious monsters you can conjure up!
