Ito, who created the original source material manga, was trying to twist (pun absolutely intended) the generally-positive spiral symbol into something disturbing. He stated, "Usually spiral patterns mark character's cheeks in Japanese comedy cartoons, representing an effect of warmth. However, I thought it could be used in horror if I drew it a different way." Ito has also claimed to not really know what the spirals mean, preferring to think maybe they symbolize infinity.
