The Hito-dama are newly dead, human souls. They take the form of great floating balls of fire. Hito-dama are often found near graveyards and forests in the summer, where they are said to live. Most Hito-dama fade or fall the the ground shortly after being seen, although some are believed to be the "fox-fire" of the trickster Kistune, or Fox, and lead people astray.
