Literally, "two-mouth woman" describes this 妖怪 perfectly. This woman has a normal mouth, which doesn't eat much or at all. But on the back of her skull, under her hair, she has a second mouth. This second mouth can control the woman's hair to form tendrils that will reach out and grab food to feed itself, and it's completely ravenous.
Stories of how this second mouth came to be differ, but they tend to include a miserly husband which made the second mouth appear—so penny-pinchers beware! Other stories credit the second mouth to the woman's own miserly ways. In those stories, the woman keeps food from her stepchild, who dies and becomes the attached second mouth in order to torment and exact revenge on the terrible stepmother who wouldn't feed him.
Hi guys I'm done with this chapter I'm going to write part 2 stories so stay tune and don't miss it!
