Kasa-obake (Japanese: 傘おばけ) are a mythical ghost or yōkai in Japanese folklore. They are sometimes, but not always, considered a tsukumogami that old umbrellas turn into. They are also called "karakasa-obake" (から傘おばけ),"kasa-bake" (傘化け), and "karakasakozō" (唐傘小僧).

Sometimes, but rarely, they even have two feet, as depicted in the yōkaiemaki such the "HyakkiYagyoZumaki".
