A collection of seven of Hideshi Hino's terrifying and fantastic works. In "The Blooming Forest", the first story, the Cherry Blossom Forest is said to be a place that must never be approached. It is said that a beautiful but terrifying demon named Sakurahime lives there and kills people who pass nearby by inviting them into the forest. But Taro, who does not believe in demons, wanders deep into the forest because it is so beautiful and Sakurahime finds him... The fourth story, "Mermaid in a Manhole" was later adapted into the horror movie of the same name as part of the "Guinea Pig" series, with Hideshi Hino himself directing.
