Giant Robot Store is bringing back one of our favorite traditions with the Yokai Show opening October 18 and running through November 2, 2025. This exhibition gathers a huge lineup of artists who each bring their own twist on folklore, monsters, and mysterious spirits from across cultures. From cute to creepy, this collection is full of imagination and surprises.

The show kicks off with a live Instagram tour by curator Cassia Lupo on the Giant Robot Store account, where you can see the pieces up close and hear a bit about each artist’s work. All artworks will also be available online starting at 11 am PT that same day.

Stop by the store at 2015 Sawtelle Blvd in West LA to see the show in person. We’re open from 12 to 6 pm every day except Mondays. Come celebrate stories, art, and creatures that live somewhere between myth and dream.
