Yomawari Night Alone has an incredible art design able to create a unique set of enemies. The little protagonist will face twisted and weird creatures, unique and innovative nightmarish creation heavily based on japanese folklore. Not all the spirits are dangerous, some of them just want to exist.
This duality of the bestiary gives a unique twist to the game: when meeting a new spirit you will not know if it is dangerous or pacific, and their appearance will not help, since disfigured and creepy things could be anyway pacific. This is also true the other way around, where a big and funny dog can be very aggressive and dangerous.
In the picture below I tried to summarize all the evil and dangerous spirits of Yomawari. Maybe a couple of them could be missing, since their chance to appear can be so random that I missed them. I tried to keep the same proportion they have in the game: using the child with knife as reference for a standard human ghost, you can see that some of these monstrosities are colossal entities.
Welcome in the world of the evil spirits of Yomawari, feel free to explore giant cat heads, drowned dead bodies, balls of ears… and all the other abominations.
