Aka Manto (Red Cape)

URBAND LEGEND

Aka Manto
赤マント
 Red Cape

Back again with Urban Legend story, this article actually used for study about culture and lifestyle another country. Please be a mature and respect, because culture is important treasure for a country.
This is story about another Japanese ghost who lurks in bathrooms, but is much more unsettling and gruesome than Hanako. Most versions of this tale tell of a ghost who wears a mask to cover his handsome face, which caused him to attract stalkers when he was a human.
Haunting the last stall in girl's bathrooms, he will suddenly appear and ask if his victim wants red or blue toilet paper.

Please Remember This :
1. If asking for Red, he will violently carve into you until your clothes are soaked in blood.
2. If you ask for Blue, you will be strangled until you die and your face turns blue.
Some variations feature a cloak instead of toilet paper and even the ghost ripping the skin off your back. While you may pick a third color, there are conflicting theories on whether this will grant you survival.

One rumor at schools is that a girl heard a voice in the stall next to her's ask "Shall we put on a red vest?" She ran out scared and called the police, who came to investigate. One cop waited outside while his female partner went into the stall. There she heard the same question, and her partner heard her answer "Put it on!". He heard a loud scream and commotion from the stall, and when he rushed in, she had been decapitated and her vest soaked in blood.
Another version of the story says that if you ask for yellow cloak, you will have your head forced into the toilet you've just used but you will survive being drowned.

Alternate versions :
Aka Manto is sometimes referred to as Aoi Manto (Blue Cape).
Sometimes the voice will ask them if they want a cape rather than paper. If they agree to Red, the skin on their back is ripped off to resemble a red cape. If they ask for Blue, all the blood is drained from their body.
One popular version of the story changes the question if one would like to wear a red vest or red shirt, answering affirmatively allegedly results in being decapitated so that the victim's upper clothing is stained red.
Another version of the story says that if they ask for yellow cloak, they will have their head forced into the toilet they've just used but they will survive being drowned.  

If you decline to receive any kind of paper
he will depart.
 If they chose any color they will still die from whatever the spirt is called.

Red paper or Blue paper?
