These are all of Ito Junji's works. Some of them may be out of print or not reprinted, and some of them have been adapted into movies or TV series.
One of the best is 'Uzumaki'. It's a terrifying tale centered around a town obsessed with spirals. The way Ito uses the simple concept of spirals to create an all - pervading sense of dread is masterful. Another great one is 'Tomie'. Tomie is a character who can't die and her presence brings out the worst in people, leading to some truly disturbing situations. And 'Gyo' is also notable, with its grotesque concept of fish walking on land, it makes for a very unnerving read.
For me, 'Tomie' stands out as extremely scary. The idea of an immortal and malevolent woman causing chaos and horror is terrifying. The detailed illustrations add to the creepy atmosphere.
Well, 'Tomie' is often considered a top choice. The way the character is portrayed and the mysterious plotlines make it stand out. Also, the art style adds to the overall creepy atmosphere.
