Momo

The Momo Challenge is a viral urban legend that has swept the globe. It is said that a certain "Momo" enticed children and teenagers to perform a series of dangerous tasks including violent attacks, self-harm, and suicide. The challenge "became a worldwide phenomenon" in 2018 after an Indonesian newspaper reported that it had caused a 12-year-old girl to kill herself. (See more of the Momo Challenge hoax).

The Momo character was taken from the work of Japanese artist Midori Hayashi, who is not associated with the game.



The real title of the artwork is Mother Bird and was on display at Tokyo’s horror art Vanilla Gallery.
