Genuinely terrifying. 

This was my first time reading any adaption of Frankenstein and I loved it. Fantastic, eerie vibes, felt the sorrow of the characters. 5 stars. 

The second set of stories in this collection follows Toru Oshikiri and his weird haunted mansion house that leads to alternate dimensions; these stories alongside Junji Ito's creepy art just gives me the spooks. I liked these a bit less than his adaption of Frankenstein. The one the stood out to me the most was the story where 3 classmates of Oshikiri become his friends as they are all into investigating the supernatural. I was even a bit sad at the end when their friendship (understandably) fizzles out after a horrible encounter with their alternate dimension selves.  

The "bonus" stories at the end about Ito's own pets was really kind of weird (not in a good way) and I excluded these in my star rating. 

I made the mistake of reading this in the evening right before bed and now I'm terrified I will have nightmares.
