A dark evil lurks in the unreachable depths of a pipe, groaning out moans that echo through the house of a germophobe mother and her daughters.

In another tale, flowers blooming in the shape of eyeballs are only the beginning of the strange phenomena surrounding a mysterious transfer student. Could he have supernatural abilities?

Also, a man in a village deep in the mountains shares memories of his wife. What happened to her after she said she would give freely of her blood?

Legendary horror author Junji Ito presents six stories that will make your blood run cold!

Moan: Junji Ito Story Collection invites you to a terrifying world that masterfully blurs the line between reality and nightmare.

About the Author

Junji Ito made his professional manga debut in 1987, and he is now recognized as one of the greatest contemporary artists in the horror genre. His long-form masterpieces include Gyo, No Longer Human, Tomie, and Uzumaki, and his short stories have been collected into volumes such as Alley, Deserter, Shiver, Smashed, The Liminal Zone, and several more, all available from VIZ Media. Ito’s professional memoir, Uncanny: the Origins of Fear, details the influences and experiences that led to his becoming a horror manga artist.

He is a four-time Eisner Award winner. In 2019 his collection Frankenstein won in the “Best Adaptation from Another Medium” category, and in 2021 he was awarded “Best Writer/Artist,” while Remina received the award for “Best U.S. Edition of International Material (Asia).” Lovesickness won “Best U.S. Edition” in 2022.

His titles have been adapted into live-action films and anime. The Netflix series Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre is based on his short stories, and Uzumaki has inspired an anime miniseries.
