Something by Junji Ito, right? I only know his work by reputation.
Yes. The Enigma of Amigara Fault: https://comick.app/comic/the-enigma-of-amigara-fault
if you don't know what this is and like creepy shit, this is your calling. Read it.
This is my horror manga. It was made for me.
Thanks, I’m not going to sleep today, am I?
You were warned further up in the thread 😁
I don’t know. I read it once and the images stayed in my head. I imagine the main character must feel like someone with a mental illness. Driven by an unexplainable urge to do something which will destroy them ultimately.
I guess I just don't get the scariness of it. It's a little weird but "person feels compelled to enter hole, comes out wrong on the other side" just... idk wasn't that scary to me?
The body horror aspect is obvious, but the psychological horror is completely up to the reader. Some might find a particular relation to the whole ‘endless hole that I know I shouldn’t fall into, but I just can’t help it’ aspect, others feel triggered by the whole ‘fear of the unknown’ aspect, yet others can draw comparisons between this and self-destructive behavior of some kind.
And others, like you, might not feel anything at all.
Is this a new Saddam hole meme? I've never seen this one and it's glorious.
Nah, I dragged this one from old NCD, like most of the stuff collecting dust on my hard drive.
skrrt skrrt
