Junji Ito Horror House 2
This experience combines an immersive haunted house with a curated showcase of replica artwork from Ito’s anime adaptations, allowing visitors to confront fear on multiple levels: visually, emotionally, and psychologically. Widely hailed as the “Master of Contemporary Japanese Horror Manga”, Junji Ito invites fans to step beyond the page and into his chilling imagination — where finely drawn black-and-white lines transform into a world of oppressive, otherworldly terror.
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
What to Expect
The exhibition, themed around the anime Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre, features two haunted zones: Hall A “Village of Retribution” and Hall B “Town of Summons”, led by the iconic characters Tomie and Souichi. Guided only by a single “lifeline rope”, visitors must venture into the dark and navigate through ten terrifying scenes, including Tunnel of Terror, Headless Statue, Tomie: Photo, Souichi’s Pet, and more. This immersive journey delivers the full intensity of Junji Ito’s suffocating horror aesthetics.
After braving the horrors of Halls A and B, visitors will enter the “Mystery Zone”, where Junji Ito’s artistry takes center stage. Here, fans can get up close with replica animation artwork and experience a full-scale recreation of the iconic scenes from Uzumaki. This area offers a rare chance to explore the creative vision and inspirations of Japan’s master of modern horror.
Within the Uzumaki installation, the manga’s most unforgettable moments are brought to life through haunting three-dimensional set pieces. Visitors will feel the overwhelming despair and madness of being consumed by endless spirals, stepping directly into a world where supernatural forces and curses twist reality itself. This chilling finale ensures the exhibition closes on its darkest, most unforgettable note.
A merchandise store features a variety of specially designed Hong Kong edition items alongside a wide range of goods inspired by Junji Ito’s most iconic characters. Launching alongside the exhibition, the themed café brings Junji Ito’s macabre imagination to the dining table.
Adding to the experience, an exclusive Junji Ito Horror Character Photo Booth debuts in Hong Kong. Fans can capture unforgettable memories with photo stickers printed alongside Ito’s most haunting creations. Each sticker transforms a fleeting moment of fear into a lasting keepsake.
