The yōkaiencyclopedia; KanibozuMedium: ink pens and watercolor. A gigantic crab as big as two tatami mats secretly lived disguised as a priest in a temple in Kai domain, present Yamanashi Prefecture. People were in fear of the monster because it ate visiting priests one after another when they came to the temple. One day a nomad priest arrived, drained the water of the pond in the back of the temple and found the crab priest and lots of bones. In the end, the nomad priest defeated the crab.(Please do tell us if we messed up the names or the stories, we would really appreciate that). -- source link
