An unidentified literary specimen has arrived at the morgue. Are you brave enough to claim it?

Please note: the ribbon and annotation tab colours, sticker design, and toe tag details vary depending on the book. Each are chosen to provide additional hints as to the identity of the book, and may look a little different from the picture shown!

THE VICTIM'S PROFILE:

Genre: Supernatural, Psychological, Vintage
Format: Hardcover
Representation: Japanese
Atmosphere: Slow-burning, dreadful, and claustrophobic
Setting: Japan
Additional clues: Family secrets, isolation, paranoia, and an increasingly oppressive sense of danger

THE CASE FILE

A fresh start should feel like a relief. It's somewhere to settle down, put down roots, and finally ease into a normal, structured life. Unless you've moved in right next to a graveyard. Good job.

Other than the obvious, something about their new home doesn't sit quite right. Strange things start happening (who would've guessed?) and the longer they stay, the harder it becomes to ignore the feeling that something is terribly wrong.

They realize whatever is happening isn't going to leave them alone. Ever.

THE SPECIMEN

Each mystery book arrives wrapped in craft paper, secured with a ribbon, and accompanied by its very own identifying toe tag.

Your specimen includes:

  • One mystery horror book, wrapped and ready to be ripped apart

  • One set of annotation tabs to mark all the moments worth screaming about

  • One MUJI 0.5mm Knock Type Gel Pen

  • One complimentary sticker (not including the cute ghost keeping it together)

  • One Thin Veil Bookstore branded book review bookmark

CAUSE OF DEATH: UNKNOWN

Every specimen is released at a discounted price, just waiting to be claimed.

The paperwork is complete. The specimen is identified (well, almost). All that's left is for you to claim your new horror obsession and uncover what lies beneath the wrapping.

All specimens are released into the care of their new owners at their own risk.

CASE STATUS: AWAITING COLLECTION.
