Japanese Toileture
You have to give it to the Japanese when it comes to innovation.
Here’s for you bathroom readers-
A horror story printed on toilet paper to satisfy both your appetite for reading and pooping. All you have to do is fork up a reasonable 210 yen ($2.20) to get hold of the material and enjoy them in the comforts of your loo.
And if you don’t like Koji Suzuki’s horror in the loo stories, you can simply flush them down the drain pronto.
As for me, I might read the story but I will skip the loo.

TOKYO – In a country where ghosts are traditionally believed to hide in the loo, a Japanese company is advertising a new literary experience – a horror story printed on toilet paper.
Each roll carries several copies of a new nine-chapter novella written by Koji Suzuki, the Japanese author of the horror story “Ring,” which has been made into movies in both Japan and Hollywood.
“Drop,” set in a public restroom, takes up about three feet (90 centimeters) of a roll and can be read in just a few minutes, according to the manufacturer, Hayashi Paper.
The company promotes the toilet paper, which will sell for 210 yen ($2.20) a roll, as “a horror experience in the toilet.”
Toilets in Japan were traditionally tucked away in a dark corner of the house due to religious beliefs. Parents would tease children that a hairy hand might pull them down into the dark pool below. – AP
