A long time ago there was woman near the canyon who was as beautiful as a goddess. She often called to travellers and asked them, “Do you think theres really a heaven?” “Do you know where it is?” “Do want me to see it?” Every traveller became memorised by the woman’s beauty and answered “Yes”, they were all taken to the forest and was never seen again. A puppet maker heard of this story and invented a plan. He made a life-size puppet and put it near the canyon and hid, secretly observing it. As expected, the woman appeared and asked the puppet the question, but it couldn’t answer. A while later the woman’s eyes turned red, her mouth widened and had eight arms. She became a spider and attacked the puppet. When the puppet maker saw the monster he lit arrows on fire and endlessly shot them at the monster. The spider covered began screaming and ran into the forest, the puppet maker ran after it and saw the big spider and a smaller spider burn to death. Afterwards the village people were afraid the spider spirits would haunt them and built a temple into the area and named it “Spider King” and the canyon was named “Wire Monster Hero”.

According to the legend, centuries ago, a sweet village girl named Ohana lived nearby, and after saving a very rich feudal lord's life, she was given a whole chest full of beautiful and incredibly pricy kimonos as a reward. However, the greedy daughters of the local leader wanted Ohana's wardrobe, so falsely accused Ohana of being a criminal and managed to get the poor woman executed.
