Shiver is a spine-chilling collection of nine unsettling tales, each one featuring bizarre and horrifying occurrences that push the limits of human fear. In one story, a girl’s window frames an arm covered in tiny holes, raising questions of its sinister origin. In another, after an idol’s tragic death, balloons bearing the faces of their future victims begin to float ominously in the sky. A seemingly innocent amateur film shoot turns into a nightmarish bloodbath when an eccentric model leads them to a grisly fate.
These stories are filled with grotesque imagery and unnerving psychological horror, characteristic of Junji Ito’s signature style. Each narrative unveils a new nightmare, from strange supernatural phenomena to grisly twists of fate, ensuring that horror fans will be captivated by the tension and dread that build with every turn of the page. Shiver offers an anthology of relentless terror, delivering a range of horrifying experiences that leave a lasting mark on the reader’s psyche.
