The Uncanny and the Grotesque

The grotesque is a form of art that is characterized by its use of exaggeration, distortion, and the grotesque. Ito's work often explores the uncanny and the grotesque, and he uses these elements to create a sense of unease and dread in his readers.
One of the most famous examples of Ito's use of the uncanny is the story "The Enigma of Amigara Fault." In this story, a group of people discovers a strange fault in the ground that is filled with human-shaped holes. The holes are perfectly sized for people to fit into, and they seem to beckon the people to enter them. As the people enter the holes, they begin to transform into strange, monstrous creatures.
The story is a classic example of the uncanny, and it creates a sense of unease and dread in the reader.
