asian Urban legends

Aka manto (red cape)

A woman enters a public bathroom, after clarifying that she is alone she enters the third stall. suddenly a man asks her if she wants the red paper or the blue paper. she smiles to her self thinking its some kind of joke and says "I'll have the red paper" a loud scream shatters the other wise empty bathroom.

The police are called in, when they arrive they find the woman has been sliced into long thin slices giving the appearance of red paper.

Legend:

Aka Manto was a a very handsome man, due to it he found himself not being able to live in peace and has somehow transformed into an evil ghost who prays on women. he wears a red cape and a mask to hide his beautiful face.

Why he kills is not clear, what is clear is that the legend goes that if you try to trick him, things will only get worse. for example if you say yellow paper you might be drowned on the toilet you just finished using, if you answer blue, you will be strangled until your face turns blue. some legends say that he drain your blood until you turn blue.

the only way to survive is to say "no paper" at which point he will leave you alone. you just better hope there is actually is toilet paper in the stall you are in to avoid other problems.
