•About this Yokai•

Madau - マダウ

its a large skull with crab-claw-horns on its head,  fleshy legs sticking out directly from the bottom!!

• History and Early appearances•

A mysterious makeshift yokai: the original illustration which was part of "妖怪尽くし絵巻" ("Yokai Zukushi Emaki" 1820s) - since the body parts appear to be a bit of a collage & where quickly copied from a different illustrations: it was most likely a Yokai which was drawn for the game of telling 100 ghost stories: “Hyakkumonogatari Kaidankai” - Sadly, no stories where included with the scroll: though its possible at one point in time people would know exactly what you where talking about from the illustration -  Because there was no description included, we may never know the true nature of this yokai for sure.
