Welcome to one of the most disturbing minds in Japanese manga! Hideshi Hino has long been considered a master of the horror manga genre since his coming out in the late seventies. And the four stories in Lullabies from Hell will show you how demented the man can be. These truly are deeply disturbing visions that will appeal to those who enjoy the works of Clive Barker and other gothic horror writers.

The self-titled first chapter introduces you to the author himself, a horror quasi-biography of sorts. The second story tells of Hino’s having willed his pregnant wife into birthing a horrible, planet-devastating reptile baby that eats puppies and children! And you can imagine how the stories progress from there. Hideshi Hino is regarded as a horror manga genius in Japan, with over 400 bestselling books.
