    I don’t get it. Help me out. It’s just a girl.

    • Eatsoup says:

      I don’t get it, either. :(

    • Kit S. says:

      Well, I think it /is/ just a girl, but many Japanese horror stories/games use young girls in kimonos as the scar factor. Take Fatal Frame for an example. That one ALWAYS has at least one young girl in a kimono who scares the snot out of you. Though in FF just about everyone is in a kimono. Other than that, I can’t tell if she’s anything special, or just some girl in a kimono that someone altered. that help any?

    • Electric0Eye says:

      Well I don’t get it either… Its not frightening at all, in fact she’s kind of cute, but the more I stared at it I got pretty scared because it was supposed to be frightening but I didn’t know why. I don’t really get it but all I know is the more I wondered the more it scared me, I guess its because human beings are always afraid of what they don’t understand. But yeah, that’s my guess.

    • snake fan says:

      Play Fatal Frame. Then you’ll get it *shudders* that game…

    • Orthriophis says:

      I think it might be a doll. Not sure though.

    • WritingRabbit says:

      I’m really not sure here, but I think if you look hard at her face she seems to waver and move very ghost-like. This may be an optical illusion. I really don’t know what else it could be.

    swears will be changed into names of pokemon? METAPOD yeah! but what happens if i say p*****u?

  3. Mint says:

    I don’t get it either. I think she’s cute.

  4. Super Jupiter says:

    He-a look-a like a man!

  5. Poindly says:

    WTF!!!?!? IT’S SO WEIRD!!!

  6. AkaTako says:

    She looks a little like a Ryo Yoshida doll?

    Not particularly terrifying though.

  7. Gruagach says:

    It’s an animated GIF. If you stare at it long enough, the eyes move and she’s looking at you. Then she looks away again. And so on. It gets pretty creepy.

    • ahiam94 says:

      So I didn’t think this picture was creepy at all, but since you’ve said that I am for some reason to terrified to look. I guess it might be because of the fact that it’s pitch black in my room right now.

      • DDT says:

        You’re one right click and one left click away from relief.
        It’s just a jpg.

        And yes, figures like this were used in old japanese horror entertainment.

        It’s more “subtle” than western horror.

        • Kelly says:

          yeah I love when people say that Japanese horror is “more subtle” and “elegant” than western horror, guess that doesn’t take the really messed up guro into consideration? Ever hear of Flower of Flesh and Blood?

    • Kelly says:

      not a gif

  8. cavepainter says:

    Seems like it’s meant to be more of a psychological horror than the shock-horror of modern times. Maybe.

    • eirraca says:

      That’s generally the idea with asian/japanese “horror.” It’s not what you see, but your perception that is influenced by what you don’t see or briefly see; the other senses pick up and heighten it.

      • Kelly says:

        yeah again as I said to the person above, I’m tired of people going on about how presumably Japanese horror is more “subtle,” etc. Ever watch guro?

  9. I_am_behind_you says:

    It’s… Moving… Please don’t kill me… I know you are going to move… I see your tricks, you can’t fool me! I know… Don’t… Gah!!! *Brainplosion*

  10. Keystuck says:

    Clearly you guys have not played the Fatal Frame Franchise.

  11. earer says:

    Oh holy crap

  12. Felipe says:

    it’s a jpg, it won’t move, now, if you don’t think women in kimonos are creepy, check this out

    • Kyla says:

      Oh jesus. Not many things on the internet make me VICTREEBEL myself except for that. Works best with sound on. Totally posted it to my facebook claiming what a sweet comic it was and had another friend go along with it. Now to sit and wait. >:D

    • Jenbooca says:

      I should know better than to click in links I’m not sure about. Scared the ever living daylights out of me.

  13. Tallest9 says:

    Am I really the first one here to mention Jigoku Shoujo?

  14. Hotdjuman says:

    Don’t quote me on this but it could be based on the Yuki-onna in Japanese mythology. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuki-onna

  15. Kyla says:

    Its not a gif, its a jpg. Right click the picture and choose View Image. Notice the wtf-photos-videos-vintage-japanese-horror.”jpg” at the end.

  16. Megera says:

    if he’s seeing it move like a gif – well, i’d say it is creepy, lol. at least for him.

  17. Aria says:

    She could be the Yuki-onna.

  18. J says:

    How is this horror? She seems nice… what’s that dripping OH GOD ITS MY FAAAACE
