The Banshee is based on a common type of evil spirit in traditional Japanese beliefs, the "Yurei".

Boy here I though the Banshee were based on the Banshee, silly me!

Yurei are depicted with white kimono, usually they have broken wrist and no legs or feet. Plus Yurei aren't known for being screamers. In the Japanese version these enemies are called Banshee too, not Yurei
