Yuki-onna appears to be a spirit made to personify the coldness of winter that leads people to freeze to death. One legend even tells of her sparing a young man due to his youth and handsome appearance, and later he discovers that the woman he married is in fact Yuki-onna. There's no mention of a way to escape the Snow Woman, but there are legends that reveal she has a willingness to show mercy. Some say she does it just because, while others say she drinks the blood or "life force" of her victims. And other times, she only kills men who she successfully seduces with freezing kisses. Sometimes she'll even invade people's homes, blowing the door open and freezing them in their sleep. Yuki-onna will freeze anyone who tries to take the cloaked Yukinko from her. This child often wears a yuki mino, a conical straw snow cloak traditional in Japan. Others say she appears with a child in her arms, known as Yukinko. Others say she'll cause snowstorms to freeze travelers to death.
Some say she leads travelers astray, leaving them to die of exposure in the cold. Her method of killing varies with the legend. Yuki-onna, translated as "snow woman," is said to be the spirit of a beautiful woman who perished in the snow. Our next myth comes from Japan, and this one is a deadly monster as well. But the #7 and #1-3 are fun and not nightmare-inducing, so maybe just skip to them. Warning: If you are prone to nightmares, this might be a post you want to skip or skim. We're not looking at modern pop culture but only the icy mythologies of the world, both popular and obscure.

So no modern ice dragons, icy movie monsters, living snowmen, flying reindeer, Ice type Pokemon, ect. Modern 20th- and 21st-century creations known to be fictional won't end up on this. Rules: Only creatures of folklore, folk legend, and myth will be included here. (After all, my entire DA account is pretty much dedicated to ice dragons.) So, to celebrate the coming of winter, here are my personal top 10 mythical creatures of ice and the winter season! With Thanksgiving behind us and December now upon us with Christmas on its way, I thought it would be fun to share a particular passion of mine! As many of you know, I'm super fascinated with mythical creatures of winter, ice and snow.
