One day, クドー・ダイスケ Kudo Daisuke (@bowz_man) noticed a curved mirror on the side of the road.
The surface of the curved mirror was bumpy and damaged, so the reflected view created quite an unsettling effect, with multiple swirling distortions. In fact, you could say it's reminiscent of the world depicted in horror manga artist Junji Ito's famous series Uzumaki.

Particularly ominous is the spot in Kudo Daisuke's head which looks like it has a gaping hole in it!
His unsettling photo received numerous likes and comments, such as:
