Description

A new collection of delightfully macabre tales from a master of horror manga.

An old wooden mansion that turns on its inhabitants. A dissection class with a most unusual subject. A funeral where the dead are definitely not laid to rest. Ranging from the terrifying to the comedic, from the erotic to the loathsome, these stories showcase Junji Itos long-awaited return to the world of horror.
