Also known as: がしゃどくろ, 餓者髑髏
A mythical Giant Skeleton in modern Japanese mythology.
Gashadokuro, also known as Odokuro, or ("starving skeleton") are giant skeletons that are fifteen times taller than an average person. If a Gashadokuro sees a human, it will grab it and attempt to bite its head off with its giant teeth. Gashadokuro are created from gathering bones from people who have died of starvation. The only way a Gashadokuro can be detected before it appears is by hearing a ringing in one's ears.
