The Enigma of Amigara Fault(阿弥殻断層の怪Amigara Dansō no Kai, Amigara means "Empty Shell") is a short manga by Junji Ito. It was published along with the second volume of Gyo, but has nothing to do with the story. The entire tale is shorter than the length of the average manga chapter. The characters undergo a Lovecraftian sense of being inexorably drawn to their doom due to curiosity of the mystical and otherworldly[citation needed]. Like fellow manga artist Shintaro Kago, Junji Ito's work is concerned with confronting and destroying the sacredness of the body.

Should it seriously disturb you, counter with liberal application of this comic, or this one, or this one, or this one., or possibly even this one, this one, or this one. There's also a dramatic reading.
