Tomie, by Junji Ito is a pretty interesting story about an immortal succubus who constantly gets herself killed by men. She is always reincarnated as "Tomie" and seeking out men like a predator. Throughout the story you find out more and more about Tomie and how she works, she gets into strange situations and the resolution is always interesting.

The fairly bland story is held up by the beautiful (and freaky) art of Junji Ito, despite the bland story it is surprisingly entertaining. For a nearly 800 page manga I read it quickly and was never bored.

I do recommend Tomie if you enjoy horror, if you're a fan of Junji Ito's other works I STRONGLY recommend Tomie. It took 25 years for Ito to complete Tomie which means that you watch as his art style develops from something basic yet inspired to his current masterful art.
