Ramen of the Damned

Inspired by: Ringu (The Ring)

Seven days. That’s how long you have after eating this hellbroth. Inspired by cursed VHS tapes and hair in the drain, this miso ramen bowl is comforting, haunting, and topped with terror.

Ingredients

2 blocks ramen noodles (souls in coil form)

4 cups vegetable broth (cursed, obviously)

2 tbsp white miso paste (the whisper of decay)

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp sesame oil

1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (gilled like drowned faces)

1 soft-boiled egg (for the brave)

1 sheet nori (black hair, if you squint)

Scallions, chili oil, and despair for garnish

Instructions

Bring broth to a boil. Add mushrooms, miso, soy, and sesame oil. Stir until you hear whispers.

Cook ramen noodles. Drain but do not rinse—let the horror cling.

Combine noodles and broth. Top with halved egg, nori, scallions, and chili oil.

Watch your reflection in the broth.

Eat in silence. If your phone rings, do not answer.

Kill Count: 1 cursed tape, 2 journalists, your peace of mind

Scream Time: 25 minutes

Survivability Rating: 1/5 skulls – You’ll love it… until you don’t.
