The Best Collection of Chie Shinohara one-shots contains murder, mystery and horror - each with a hearty helping of Nightmare Fuel.
- The entirety of The Midnight Visitor: Masami comes home from tennis practice to find that her mother and younger brother aren't there - she thinks nothing of it at first, assuming they're enjoying the warm day outside... but hours later, they still aren't back, and there hasn't been so much as a phone call. The following night, someone tries to break in, cutting at the door-chain with a knife, and Masami tries in vain to slam the door on them - it turns out they have the key, and break in to try and kill Masami. And what happened to Masami's family? They're dead, and have been for several days, with their corpses lying unnoticed in the house the entire time.
- The gaslighting in Suicide Room Number 404, with Eriko seeing the spirits of the previous tenants, who all commited suicide over lost or scorned love. The fact that it was done by her supposed 'best friend' and the guy she's had a crush on, who merely faked his feelings for Eriko, just adds another layer of horror to it.
- Hisako and Nori almost getting buried alive in the excavation site in Red Destiny.
