New Voices in the Dark

新・闇の声 潰談

Junji Ito gathers fresh horror stories in this anthology, several built around Soichi, the spiteful, nail-biting boy who curses everyone around him. One installment continues the haunted-mansion thread from the earlier Yami no Koe; others follow a girl found bloodied on a mountain road at night and a couple living inside a mansion of inherited books that begins to warp around them. Each short story stands alone, linked only by Ito's slow turn from the ordinary into the grotesque.
