Yokai Series), also called the Daiei Yokai Trilogy (大映の妖怪三部作 Daiei no Yōkai Sanbusaku), is a trilogy of unconnected tokusatsu horror films produced by Daiei which feature Japanese monsters from mythology known as yokai. All three entries were directed by Kimiyoshi Yasuda and Yoshiyuki Kuroda from 1968 to 1969.
