1. Junji Ito Collection

If you’re a fan of horror manga, then you’re probably already familiar with Junji Ito’s work. He is renowned for his horror manga, so it’s surprising that it took this long for his work to be adapted into anime form. The series finally aired earlier this year, featuring a collection of Junji’s shorter stories. Each episode is split into two short stories (24 spooky tales in total!), offering a mix of psychological horror and body horror. The two OVAs adapt one of Ito’s most popular manga, the story of Tomie, a hellish girl who can’t die. This anime is a must-watch for those who want to be thoroughly creeped out!

For those looking to express their love for this iconic series, you can find Junji Ito-themed anime merchandise, including anime figures and anime clothes, at various anime stores near you or online.

2. Ghost Hunt

Ghost Hunt is about discovering paranormal activity. Adapted from a light novel series that became a manga in 1994, the anime aired in 2006. The story follows a high school student named Mai who ends up helping a Paranormal Investigation Team with her latent psychic abilities. The episodes vary in fright level, but episodes 18 to 21 are particularly terrifying. Plus, it includes some romance for those shojo fans.

If you're a fan of Ghost Hunt, you can find plenty of anime merch, such as anime hoodies and other anime clothes, at your local anime merch store or on anime merch websites like Anime Devta.
