Tombs by Junji Ito is a collection of some of Ito's works, most notably the short story Tombs. Ito himself is well-known for his horror manga, or Japanese comics. He mostly sticks to short stories, but he occasionally branches out with longer works such as Uzumaki and Tomie. Ito's work has been slowly getting translated into English, and this is just one of the latest of many manga collections the library has to offer by the award-winning author.
If you're looking for something spooky during the month of October, I'd recommend anything by Junji Ito. Even if you're not frightened of his stories, his creepy illustrations will put you in the Halloween mood!
