> 江戸時代後期の作家、十返舎一九が書いた『列国怪談聞書帖』に出てくる妖怪。
> 「大和の国（現在の奈良県）に染木某という強い淫欲にとりつかれた男がいた。
> 女性を犯し殺してしまうこともたびたびあったため、見かねた一族の者たちが男を剃髪させて山の中の庵に住まわせたが、
> 道行く女性達を目を剥いて見張るため「眼張入道」とあだ名された。
> やがて禁欲に耐えられなくなった男は村の娘を攫い、庵に監禁して毎日のように犯した。
> あるとき男の留守中に庵に忍び込んだ盗賊がいた。
> 盗賊は監禁された娘を見つけると、気の毒に思って外に連れ出した。
> そこへ帰ってきた男が掴みかかったが、盗賊は一刀で男を斬り殺し、娘を親元に帰してやった。
> その後、白い着物姿の男の霊が毎晩娘の家に現れるようになった。
> 娘が身を隠すと、狂ったように村中の家々を彷徨って娘の行方を探すので
> 恐ろしくなった村人たちは僧に頼んで霊を鎮めてもらおうとしたが効果がなかった。
> しかしある晩、男の霊は山犬にあっさりと噛み殺されてしまう。
> 夜が明けて見てみると、そこには白い着物を着た狐の死体があった。
> 男の執念を真似た狐の仕業と判明して安堵した人々は、その呆気ない最期を笑ったという。」

> Ganbari-no-Irimichi -- a ghost that appears in "Rengoku Kaidan Monogatari Monshocho" written by Jippensha Ikku, a writer in the late Edo period (1603-1868).
> In the country of Yamato (present-day Nara Prefecture), there was a man named Somegi who was obsessed with a strong lust for sex.
> He often raped and killed women, and his family, unable to bear the sight of him, had him shaved and sent him to live in a hermitage in the mountains.
> He was nicknamed "Ganbari-irudo" (the "eye-watcher") because of the way he kept his eyes peeled for women on the road.
> Eventually, the man could no longer endure his celibacy, so he kidnapped a village girl, imprisoned her in his hermitage, and raped her every day.
> One day, a bandit broke into the hermitage while the man was away.
> When the thief found the captive girl, he felt sorry for her and took her outside.
> When the man returned, he grabbed her, but the bandit killed him with a single sword and returned the daughter to her parents.
> After that, the spirit of a man in a white kimono began to appear at the daughter's house every night.
> When the daughter went into hiding, the man wandered around the houses in the village like a madman, searching for her whereabouts.
> The villagers were so frightened that they asked a monk to subdue the spirit, but to no avail.
