Gashadokuro (がしゃどくろ/ 餓者髑髏, literally "starving skeleton," also known as Odokuro, literally "giant skeleton") are mythical creatures in Japanese mythology.

The Gashadokuro are spirits that take the form of giant skeletons and are fifteen times taller than an average person, said to be created from the amassed bones of people who died of starvation or in battle, without being buried. These yōkai roam after midnight, grabbing lone travelers and biting off their heads to drink their spraying blood. There is a way to know of their approach, as the victim would hear the sound of loud ringing in the ear. The Gashadokuro are said to possess the powers of invisibility and indestructibility

it should also be made of lots of normal sized bones (15^3 normal skeletons?) instead of just a normal number of big bones

I think the Rule Of Cool applies to a lot of Japanese stuff, including this.

This may be because of magic. Keep in mind that these are not natural creatures, but rather spirits taking on a form.

Also, you can apparently ward them off with Shinto charms, which may also make them visible and audible.
