This book had some good stories and some they weren't worth it. It's the type of crazy horror that I love. Boardering on reality. I love reading books like this that have been translated to English because you can tell a bit of the cultural difference as well. Horror and ghost stories are so different between cultures.

Horrible, vile, disgusting, and weird. An incredible selection of short stories that are so well-written, and enjoyable.
