Each of the short stories is an account of the horrors the black cat witnesses. The black cat is avoided by most people because of superstition, but The ventriloquist and the unhappy couple keep him as a pet, and name him Blackie (which I thought was kinda cute).

Hideshi Hino is a genius. I loved this book. I'll admit that the reason I picked it up is because I am a cat lover, and I've always wanted a black cat, but I'm so happy I did. It was eerie and interesting. (
