Who was Kuchisake Onna?
-Kuchisake-onna (口裂け女, "cleft mouth woman\Slit Mouth Woman ") is a malevolent figure appearing in Japanese ghost stories, possibly dating back to the Edo period As an undead serial killer, she approaches her victims with seemingly innocuous questions before killing them, usually with a pair of scissors.
The Original Legend....
-According to the legend, she covers her mouth with a cloth mask, a fan, or a scarf.
The woman will ask a potential victim "Am I pretty?" If he or she answers yes, she will remove her mask and ask him or her again in a girly voice. If the potential victim answers yes or screams, she will slash the victim from ear to ear so that the victim resembles her. If he or she answers no, she will walk away, only to follow her victim home and brutally murder him or her that night. Said reaction also occurs if you say no before she removes her mask.
To avoid this fate, several people during the Edo period claimed that they gave her confusing answers like average and so-so or threw money or hard candy at her, buying themselves time to run away and lose her.
