Uzumaki, the spiral, is a spirit that haunts the Japanese coastal town of Kurozu-cho. The father of Kirie's boyfriend, Shuichi, was possessed by the curse. The spirit grows everywhere--in ferns, seashells, curly hair, and the human brain. As the curse spreads and entraps more people, the town is covered with a spiral smoke of cremated corpses.
