>Perhaps the most famous variation is that of the jealous wife who is driven to distraction by her husband’s infidelity and swears revenge.

>After several days of constant prayer for divine help, she is approached by a priest who tells her he had a dream in which he learned exactly how she can take her revenge. The method? Well it wasn’t easy. She had to spend 21 by the river Uji, dressed in red and face also painted red with cinnabar. Her hair was looped into seven coils and crowned with a burning brazier while in her hand she had to hold a solid iron rod. Yet so deep was her jealousy that she endured this trial and her prayers were answered and she became the spirit of vengeance that is Hashi Hime.

>Other people’s romantic happiness is her misery and she is renowned for appearing to loving couples on bridges and threatening them with bloody murder unless they break off their relationship then and there.
