This collection of short stories is eerie, haunting, consuming and a definite must see. The art work is beautiful and has an interesting mix of realism and surealism that is just amazing. I really recommend this anime to any who enjoy mystery, horror or psychological thrillers...if you're easily scared watch it with someone else.
