Horror is a genre that you cannot experience with any other one. Even the thriller genre doesn’t give us chills as the horror genre does. So, just unlike horror anime, horror manga series are worth reading.

So, are you looking for the best horror manga to read? If so, all you need is a good list, and we have it right here. Shall we begin our list of horror manga then?

In 2006, the Japan Media Arts Festival held a special 10th anniversary awards festival for manga, anime, art and entertainment. For manga and anime, the rankings were split into a popularity poll (general public vote), and a 'professionals' ranking (critics, mangaka, etc.). The only 3 series in the 'professionals' ranking for both manga and anime were 'Astro Boy', 'Doraemon', and 'AKIRA'.

These are the manga voted by the 'professionals'. First place in the popularity poll was 'Slam Dunk'.

Kanako Inuki, sometimes called the "Queen of Horror Manga", is a mangaka who debuted in 1987 with the one-shot "orusuban (house-sitting?)" in the magazine shoujo friend, within a special issue centered around horror manga legend kazuo umezu. she went on to create successful series such as Presents, School Zone, Bukita-kun, and the Mysterious Tatari-chan. her manga, which has often appeared in shoujo magazines, are well-known for her iconic, expressive artwork and is recommended for fans of junji ito, the aforementioned kazuo umezu, and maybe even hideshi hino.

unknown title

"it was about vampires, called 'vampire hunter' or something like that. and the story branched out into outer space at the end, but..."
