Description of Vengeful Ghost (Onryou, 怨霊):

In mythology and folklore, a vengeful ghost or vengeful spirit is said to be the spirit of a deceased person who returns from the afterlife to seek revenge for a cruel, unnatural or unfair death. In certain cultures where funeral and burial or cremation ceremonies are important, such vengeful spirits may also be considered as unhappy ghosts of individuals who have not been given a proper funeral. In Japan, these kind of spirits receive the name of onryou (怨霊, lit. "hateful spirit") and are a type of yuurei (幽霊, lit. "dim spirit"), a type of Youkai and the equivalent of ghosts in the West. Typically a Ghastly Ghost, at least from the point of view of those who did them wrong.
