Scare your self shi-...Well, you know where this is going...

Only in Japan will you find the scariest toilet paper ever. (Yahoo News)

Yes. Yes. YES!

The author of The Ring novel (yes, the one the movie was based off of), Koji Suzuki, can now be famous for his "bathroom literature" as well; a horror story printed on toilet paper.

The short horror story is called Drop, and even features a public restroom as its setting. According to the article, it takes up about three feet of toilet paper and just a few minutes to read all of its nine chapters.

All I can say, as a horror fan and Japan enthusiast - I totally want a roll.
