The show is a collection of three short stories. Unfortunatley they're not very good except for the last one and are plagued by a low budget. #1 Yotsuya Kaidan: The first one is a retelling of a classic kabuki play through the eyes of the author. It's a bit slow for my taste but adds some live action towards the end to etablish the curse around it. #2 Tenshu Monogatari: This one is not really horror but a fantastical love story of a human falling in love with a god. It suffers even more from the low budget than #1 but has the better story. #3 Bake Neko: The predecessor for the show "Mononoke". It's about a cat that turned into a Mononoke and haunts a certain Clan on a wedding day. It's miles above the previous two and told in a wonderful ricepaper artstyle. Since you have to get through some supbar outputs for the good one I can't praise this as a whole.

That's real horror anime! Nothing to do with Another! The first part is a brutal drowning in the torment of revenge. The second arc a magnicent yet tragic love story. The final arc with Mononoke is a visual briallancy and a journey into the real of terror and madness. More than recommended!
