When one imagines the stuff of nightmares, nothing fits the bill like the haunting work of Junji Ito.
An artistic visionary whose stories have terrified readers around the world, Junji Ito has made his mark on the horror genre. It’s only fitting that his creations have been brought into The Fog, and the Junji Ito Collection features 8 chilling Outfits inspired by some of his most iconic and unsettling characters.
Drawing from such twisted tales as Tomie, The Hanging Balloons, The Marionette Mansion, Rumors, Fashion Model, and more.
We recently had the honor of connecting with Junji Ito, who reacted to seeing his outfits realized in Dead by Daylight. Check out the video below, and take a look at everything coming with the Junji Ito Collection.
KILLER OUTFITS
The Artist. The Spirit. The Twins. The Trickster. The Dredge.
The Artist – Miss Fuchi – Legendary
*From Fashion Model.
She hunted her prey and cherished their torment, finding pleasure in their pain. Her jaws unhinged as she devoured a group of hapless filmmakers deep in the woods, shrouded in fog. The last thing her victims heard was her joyous, hungry laugh.
The Spirit – Tomie – Legendary
*From Painter.
Her beauty was the object of obsession, driving many to madness. Though her body had been torn to pieces countless times, those pieces always grew into her duplicates. Whether human or monster, she would do anything to get what she wanted.
The Twins – Hikizuri’s Dark Past – Very Rare
*From The Strange Hikizuri Siblings
Their mother found an abandoned cabin deep in the woods, and they settled down there for the night. Their long-needed rest was interrupted when Charlotte heard whispers coming from beneath the floorboards. Her mother's eyes widened as she grabbed Charlotte's arm and dragged her outside. As they hacked through the woods, ghostly figures emerged from the cabin. Charlotte never looked back.
The Trickster – Soichi’s Party Clothes– Very Rare
*From multiple stories from Soichi’s Convenient Curse
His dad’s restaurant was packed. Young Ji-Woon slid his finger over his blade, ready to put on an epic show. He watched one of the waitresses taking orders. She would be the star tonight, and she didn’t even know it. The crowd went wild as he juggled his blades and threw a knife at the waitress. She screamed as she raised her tray, stopping the knife with a thunk. The crowd cheered, and Ji-Woon gestured for her to take a bow.
The Dredge – Half Spirits’ Torment – Ultra Rare
*From Story of the Mysterious Tunnel.
Everything had gone terribly wrong. He tried to run, but the sand gave way beneath his feet. He crawled, half-blind, until the screaming echoed from his memory. He was only a kid, but he survived where they did not. Growing old had been a blessing and a curse. As his eyes cleared, something flipped him onto his back. He wailed at the sight of those he left behind.
SURVIVOR OUTFITS
Yui Kimura. Yun-Jin Lee. Kate Denson.
Yui Kimura – Tsukiko’s Uniform – Very Rare
*From Tomie’s Photos.
Yui sat in front of her house, so deep in thought that she didn't notice her grandmother suddenly sitting next to her. Her grandmother understood that Yui would rather be out racing scooters than sitting in class. She stressed the importance before offering Yui her grandfather's motorcycle manuals – another form of education.
Yun-Jin Lee – Terumi’s Fame – Very Rare
*From The Hanging Balloons.
The sudden death of an up-and-coming pop idol rocked the entire music industry. After losing NO SPIN to that fateful fire, she wondered why death seemed to be following her. Yun-Jin put on the late singer's final album, alone with her thoughts and her tears. The change in Ji-Woon's music was upsetting enough. When would it all end?
Kate Denson – Puppet’s Troubled Ballet – Very Rare
*From Marionette Mansion
Her mother convinced her that if she liked music, she would like learning ballet. The teacher was strict and didn’t give the students any space to understand the method to her madness. Kate knew she was going to let her mother down, but she had to follow her own path. On the drive home, Kate told her mother that ballet was nothing like singing or playing guitar.
