The Night Parade of One Hundred Demons (Hyakki Yagyō or Hyakki Yakō)

Entry in the Monster Parade challenge.

About this image

A surreal, moonlit festival street crowded with yokai and mythical beings wearing traditional robes, lanterns glowing warmly as eerie mascots mingle with guests. The scene blends Japanese folklore-inspired creatures and ghostly figures in a cinematic, fantasy style with rich blues, warm amber lights, and a festive yet eerie mood.
