Han'nya is a popular Japanese mask used in Noh theatre, representing a jealous female demon. The most popular drama in which the Han'nya mask, characterized by two large sharp horns, two dazzling eyes and a grinning mouth, was used is Dojoji, inspired by the famous story of Anchin and Kiyohime.
This mask is used to represent a woman so jealous that she has transformed into a demon.
In Murasaki Shikibu's classic novel Genji Monogatari, the lady Aoi no Ue, the official wife of Prince Genji, falls ill and dies from the "living spirit" of a jealous rival, the lady Rokujo. This story is retold in Zeami's Noh drama "Aoi no Ue" (The Princess Aoi) where the main actor wears the Han'nya mask to represent the "living spirit" of Rokujo.
