I am a huge horror fan--movies, manga, anime, TV shows, you name it. I am personally a huge gore fan though, I love the true horror, gore-filled, gross type of depiction in a show haha... but this is definitely for those who do not want to see all the blood or gore, this is a timeless horror classic that's not overly gross or gory by no means, almost any age could read it. So if you don't want a "scare" but want to read some horror, this is definitely for you. At least try out some chapters if anything, and I say chapterS because itis a bit slow starting in my opinion.
