I unfortunately have not...but reading the titles some of these sound interesting so I might have to take a look.

I love short stories, and I assume they're sort of thriller/horror/creepy? That'd be right up my alley!

Yes, exactly.
The horror consists most of the time in body horror, but it's so detailed and well drawn that it's worth to get a little scared or grossed-out. 
Spoiler:
The Bully (no supernatural element involved) and The Window Next Door (the villain doesn't physically harm the protagonist, but it's unsettling how she tries to get into his room) are terrifying stories, which are more focused on the psychological aspect imo. What kind of horror are you into? __________________

I came across this from Wikipedia: ''Junji Ito (Japanese: 伊藤 潤二, Hepburn: Itō Junji, born July 31, 1963) is a Japanese horror mangaka. Some of his most notable works include Tomie, a series chronicling an immortal girl who drives her stricken admirers to madness; Spiral Into Horror Uzumaki, a three-volume series about a town obsessed with spirals;''
So this thread is an appreciation thread for a person who wrote horror mangaka. __________________

Well, the thread starter here has not been around for a while I think & this I did not even know of Junji Ito. He's worked on Horror Manga, which is a genre that I
have not read much of. __________________
