HORROR COMICS
Dec. 23rd, 2009 01:32 amHere are some fun horror comics I've read in recent memory!
I searched out the first one after reading today's Chainsaw Suit.
These are japanese comics, so those of you who are unused to this format remember to read right to left.
First comic: The Enigma of the Amigara Fault
Summary: An earthquake has exposed strange holes in the side of a mountain, shaped like people. People flock from all over to see them, and begin entering them, saying that particular holes were 'made for them'. They then disappear.
Warnings: Some body horror. No blood or guts, but you see a body look a lot like gumby gone wrong very briefly.
Found this one by going 'that can't really be right' at a tvtropes entry.
Second comic: School Mermaid (first page here. Otherwise: Follow the chapters (first is at the bottom) and choose the 'read this' link next.
Summary: It is said that if you recite the magic words, mermaids will appear for you in the school pool. If you kill one and eat its flesh, the boy you like will like you back. There are, however, some caveats and these are not normal mermaids...
Warnings: None, really. No gore.
