While this isn't my favourite from Junji Ito, I really appreciated the unique concepts coupled with his eerie artwork and the utilisation of page turns for jump scares. My favourite of the collection, Slumber, follows a young man who believes he is committing murders during his sleep. I loved the final plot twist and the ambiguity of it, which i felt amplified the horror of the story.
