Ito teamed up with Takashi Nagasaki and former diplomat Masaru Sato to create Yūkoku no Rasputin (2010–2012), based on Sato's personal experiences in Russia, for Big Comic. He collaborated with the band again in 2020, for the cover of their made-to-order single 'Shōfu 2020'. Ito drew the cover of Mucc's 2002 album Hōmura Uta. This story ran for 13 years and was later serialized as Tomie. In 1987, he submitted a short story to Monthly Halloween that won an honorable mention in the Kazuo Umezu Prize (with Umezu himself as one of the judges). He continued to draw as a hobby until he became a dental technician in 1984, where he struggled to find a balance between the two. Ito began to draw manga at the age of 4, taking inspiration from the works he read in magazines. In the house where he lived, the bathroom was at the end of an underground tunnel, where there were spider crickets such experiences were later reflected in his works. He grew up in the countryside, in a small city next to Nagano. He began his experience in the horror world at a very young age, with his first manga being Mummy Teacher by Kazuo Umezu his two older sisters read Umezu and Shinichi Koga in magazines, and consequently, he began reading them too. He discovers, too late, that the honey comes from a tree which has branches that can reach anywhere in the world, flattening anyone who is eating the honey.Junji Ito was born on Jin Sakashita, now a part of Nakatsugawa, Gifu. Kameda travels to South America to get more. Kameda finds Sugio's wallet, containing a piece of paper which seems to be a map to the honey. She tries to beat the system by wading out into a river but is, herself, splattered. Yue says that she saw something come out of nowhere and squish him flat. They still haven't figured what 'getting caught' means, but when Sugio drinks the honey straight from the jar, he splatters. Two of Kameda's friends also 'splatter' after they find his stash. They are addicted to the honey like a drug, and are unable to eat anything else, causing them to lose weight rapidly. One more of them 'splatters', leaving Sugio, Yue, and Kameda as the only survivors. Sugio recalls Ogi's words 'not to get caught' eating the honey. The remaining group members discuss what could be happening. They can't decide if what they found in Ogi's house was really what was left of him, or just some kind of weird wall decoration - but then another of them splatters into human goo. Everyone eats the honey and mixes it with their drugs. They eventually discover human remains splattered all over the wall. When Sugio tells their other friends about the honey, they all go over to Ogi's house wanting some but can't find him. When he comes down from his high, he develops 'the munchies', but finds nothing tastes good to him any more after the honey. Sugio tastes the honey and thinks it's the most delicious thing he's ever eaten.

They worshiped the plants that the honey comes from and would even risk their lives to get it but warned Ogi 'not to get caught' eating the honey.

Ogi got the jar of honey from some natives while staying in South America.

Ogi, a stoner, presents his friend Sugio with some honey.

Splatter Film is the seventh chapter of New Voices in the Dark.
