There are some such creepy and mysterious monsters present in the mythology of Japan, whose secret we are still unaware of, one of which is "Nure-Onna". Its name comes from legends that its hair is always wet and it is also believed to be a modified form of a sea snake. In folklore and myths, it is often said to consume humans, but it has no single appearance or personality. In the sea, it is also seen as a paranormal phenomenon by the name of nureyomejo.
According to legends, it was a snake-like creature with a head resembling that of a woman who was mostly seen washing her hair while sitting on the banks of the river, and while doing so if someone disturbed her, she would kill him. It is said that Nure-Onna hid half of her body underwater and only her upper human body remains visible. She also had two human hands equipped with sharp nails, and snake-like teeth, and a long tongue inside her mouth. Unknowingly, if ever a person came near the river, she would drag him into the depths of the water and suck all the blood from his body with her snake-like tongue.

But the scariest part was her two eyes, it is said that whoever made eye contact with Nure-onna's eyes was unable to move from his place and became completely powerless. She mostly pretends to be a woman drowning in water to attract the attention of people on the shore, but whoever dives into the water to save her never returns alive. Sometimes, she is depicted as a monstrous being powerful enough to crush trees with her tail, and in other stories, she is merely seeking solitude as she wanna wash her hair and responds aggressively to those who intentionally disturb her. However, the description of her appearance varies slightly from story to story, and elsewhere she is described as 300 meters in length.
