200 people from the same town have mysteriously disappeared. Where did they go and why?

From Viz:

Kur?zu-cho, a small fogbound town on the coast of Japan, is cursed. According to Shuichi Saito, the withdrawn boyfriend of teenager Kirie Goshima, their town is haunted not by a person or being but by a pattern: uzumaki, the spiral, the hypnotic secret shape of the world. It manifests itself in small ways: seashells, ferns, whirlpools in water, whirlwinds in air. And in large ways: the spiral marks on people's bodies, the insane obsessions of Shuichi's father, the voice from the cochlea in your inner ear. As the madness spreads, the inhabitants of Kur?zu-cho are pulled ever deeper, as if into a whirlpool from which there is no return...

A compilation of Junji Ito's works.

Story 1 - Blood-slurping Darkness
A girl, after being dumped by her boyfriend, decides to loose weight to get her boyfriend back. In the end she becomes anorexic, and meets a boy who supposedly will not eat either until she does. But why is it he lost weight so fast after just introducing himself?

Story 2 - The Ghost of Golden Time
A boy who never laughs or smiles is invited to a comedy show by a friend. After a rather good comedy duo, still not getting a laugh out of the boy, a female duo called "Twilight Pacific Peace" comes on stage, whom the audience didn't really enjoy at first due to their rather poor and nonsensical jokes. But somehow, by the end of their routine, they manage to get the whole audience laughing. How is it that despite how bad they are at comedy they are capable of getting entire audiences to laugh to the point of hysterics?
