Hyakkiyakou
A Famicom RPG published by Use Corporation that is based on Hyakkiyakou, or "Night Parade of the 100 Demons", a Japanese festival akin to Halloween. It was never released outside of Japan.
Overview
Hyakkiyakou is named after the Night Parade of the 100 Demons of Japanese folklore, when various youkai and other Japanese demons come out of hiding for a single night to scare people. The game is otherwise a fairly traditional 8-bit RPG, though it does feature uncommon aspects such as being able to see enemies while walking around (as opposed to the then-usual random encounters) and a regularly-proportioned adult protagonist. There is also no overworld map - both the towns and monster-infested wilderness are directly connected.
