Description

The Jiangshi, or "hopping vampire," is an undead race known for its greenish-white skin and rigid, corpse-like appearance. Traditionally dressed in Qing dynasty garments, they possess the ability to absorb the life force (qi) of the living, often hunting at night. Jiangshi are vulnerable to mirrors, peach wood, and the sound of roosters, and they are often immobilized by a talisman (fulu) placed on their foreheads. Their origins stem from cultural taboos surrounding unburied corpses.
