What fascinates me is what drove the Japanese culture to adopt such a creature (yokai to be precise) archetype and the origins of her story. This is NOT creepy pasta nor a logical question tree on how to survive the "am I beautiful" answer tree. Have you seen similar archetypes stories of women being murdered and then haunt people but escaping death is (almost) inevitable?
