Summary

A collection full of grotesque imagination and surreal urban legends.

Every night, a young man hears children playing outside of his boarding house. But the alley below his window is fenced off from the world. What secret lies within the stains on the alley’s walls? Then, when a young woman’s family starts acting strangely at the same time she begins having bizarre dreams, she decides to stay with her aunt, but the town she heads for has neither addresses or roads… Also, an all-you-can-eat ice cream truck that’s more sinister than sweet!

Legendary horror author Junji Ito presents ten blood-curdling short stories.

Junji Ito made his professional manga debut in 1987 and since then has gone on to be recognized as one of the greatest contemporary artists working in the horror genre.

Ito’s influences include classic horror manga artists Kazuo Umezz and Hideshi Hino, as well as authors Yasutaka Tsutsui and H.P. Lovecraft.

He is a four-time Eisner Award winner. In 2019 his collection Frankenstein won in the “Best Adaptation from Another Medium” category, and in 2021 he was awarded “Best Writer/Artist,” while Remina received the award for “Best U.S. Edition of International Material (Asia).” He also won his second “Best U.S. Edition” for Lovesickness in 2022.
