Stagtown: Volume 1
Cameras are appearing everywhere. Nobody knows who’s watching, and removing them only makes things worse. When Frankie returns to her hometown, she discovers that the cameras are only the beginning of something far more sinister.
Dear Reader,
For anyone who loves Junji Ito’s work, I have a creepy little recommendation for you!
Stagtown genuinely surprised me. As someone who loves bizarre and unsettling horror, I was immediately drawn to how strange this story gets. It gave me some serious Junji Ito vibes, but it also managed to feel fresh and different.
What I enjoyed most was the creativity behind the horror. There were concepts and disturbing situations that I hadn’t really encountered before, and I loved how the story could take something seemingly ordinary and turn it into something completely horrifying.
The mystery surrounding Stagtown kept me interested, especially as more unsettling details began to emerge. I also appreciated the artwork and how effectively the facial expressions and panel compositions delivered the horror.
Overall, this was such an interesting horror read. It’s bizarre, creepy, imaginative, and exactly the kind of story I enjoy discovering.
My rating: 4.5 out of 5!
