10 Anime Series All Horror Fans Need To Watch
8. Deadman Wonderland
Produced in 2011, Deadman Wonderland takes place in 2023 Japan. Ten years prior to the start of the plot, a massive earthquake known as the Red Hole struck Tokyo, reducing most of the city to ruin. In the present, a middle school student named Ganta Igarashi witnesses the horrific slaughter of his classmates by a blood wielding individual in armor.
Framed and sent to Deadman Wonderland - a private prison doubling as a public theme park where the inmates act as the entertainment - Ganta soon discovers a unique ability. This blood manipulation ability and his desire for vengeance soon lead him to the heart of Deadman Wonderland: Carnival Corpse.
Terrorized by a sadistic promoter and befriended by a mysterious albino girl, Ganta must endure brutal physical and psychological torture to discover the truth about the Red Man.
Most of the main and supporting characters are eccentrics and deviants; their way of thinking is considered unbalanced, even psychotic, by standards of normalcy. You'll constantly feel off balance. The promoter himself repeatedly uses people for his own entertainment and enjoys rigging events. He's a sadistic and mentally unstable, but also intelligent, character that'll put you on edge as you watch him play with his beloved toys.
