Japanese ghosts. Traditionally, Gory�? are vengeance ghosts from the aristocratic classes, especially those who have been martyred. Arising mainly in the Heian period, the belief was that the spirits of powerful lords who had been wronged were capable of catastrophic vengeance, including destruction of crops and the summoning of typhoons and earthquakes.
