Tanizaki Jun’ichiro
1918
This short story (only a few pages) by Japanese author Tanizaki Jun’ichiro, has a creepy atmosphere that makes you not able to put it down.
It’s about a Japanese woman who’s an actress in America and Japan. She hears rumors about a movie, The Tumor with a Human Face, that she’s in. The thing is that she doesn’t remember acting in that movie.
Hearing more and more about this movie, she realizes that it would be impossible to not remember being in the movie.
She goes to someone who works in the movie company that she is in and asks him about it. He then tells her about a curse on the film that makes someone go mad if they watch the film alone.
It’s a creepy story which I recommend to anyone who wants to read something short.
