Horror anime is the art of psychological fear, supernatural horror, and body horror, and the classics of the genre, such as Higurashi: When They Cry, Another, and Parasyte: The Maxim, are at the top of the lists of fans on Ranker and IMDb, making them part of the Best Anime of All Time. The twists and gore are in Higurashi, whose paranoia-induced killings in a cursed village, Another, which has a cursed classroom, and Parasyte, which is an alien invasion. More recent ones, such as Junji Ito Collection and Devilman Crybaby, introduce macabre imagery, and Tokyo Ghoul is a mixture of gore and identity crisis. These are a series of what audiences have voted and reviewed, and provide chills that are better than jump scares, which have shaped anime across the globe.
