テレビショッピング
A collection of seven oneshots from the pages of Horror M magazine, each a self-contained story that twists everyday situations into something deeply unsettling. In the first tale, a woman finds herself trapped in a bizarre TV shopping program where the products are not what they seem, and the host's cheerful demeanor hides a sinister agenda.
Other stories explore the quiet horror lurking in ordinary life: a girl with a strange obsession, a mother whose love takes a dark turn, a Christmas treat that brings more than sweetness, and a cockroach infestation that spirals into grotesque body horror. Each chapter peels back the veneer of normalcy to reveal the absurd, the macabre, and the psychologically twisted.
Naomi Tsukamoto blends comedy with dread, crafting narratives that are as funny as they are frightening. From a face that grows too large to a flower that blooms and withers in unnatural ways, these tales leave a lingering sense of unease long after the last page.
