Aka Manto

Origin: Japan

Aka Manto, also known as The Red Cape, is said to be a malicious spirit who wears a mask and as the name says, also a red cape. Aka Manto appears and kills people in public and school bathrooms.

The spirit will ask the occupant of the toilet a question. In some versions, he will ask if they want red paper or blue paper, though other versions identify the choices as a red cloak or a blue cloak, or as a red cape or a blue cape.

If you say red, you will suffer a bloody and violent death.

If you say blue, you will be suffocated until you turn blue and die.

You can't trick the spirit either. If you try and say, that you just want the normal one, two ghostly hands will appear out of nowhere, sometimes right out of the toilet, you are sitting on and then drag you to hell through the same toilet.

They say, that to be saved from this spirit, you have to decline every offer given by him. Only that will make him go away, for now...
