Layers of Fear; 恐怖の重層; Kyoufu no Juusou by 伊藤潤二, Junji Ito

This made my skin crawl.

Junji Ito once again did not disappoint. The master of horror manga. This is what happens when you disturb a resting place. The story was short and sweet and the artwork was great which is typical for a Junji Ito story. I didn't care for any of the characters though, so I felt no sympathy for them. Not sure if the one dimensional characters helped with the plot but I was still spooked out regardless.
