En los Dunwich del mundo, las viejas tradiciones se demoran. A salvo, alejados de las bulliciosas ciudades, ignorando la ciencia e ignorados por la civilización, lo bastante monótonos para no entusiasmar a los demás y lo bastante pobres para no provocar la envidia de nadie, son refugios seguros para la superstición y para ciertas costumbres aparentemente absurdas. En ocasiones, también albergan verdades que se han ido filtrando, de forma invisible, durante siglos. Aunque sus habitantes son incultos, no ignoran aquellas cosas que antaño fueron grandes y terribles, en los tiempos en que los ríos eran rojos y un oscuro estremecimiento envolvía el aire. Ahora, esos tiempos han regresado. Nueve historias ambientas en el lugar en el que se inicia el horror; todas ellas prologadas y con una introducción general escrita por el editor de la serie.
Los relatos reunidos en este volumen han conmocionado a los lectores más veteranos de libros de terror, porque no repiten ninguno de los tópicos del género y cada historia abre las compuertas a una forma inédita de espanto, como "Las pieles de nuestros padres", "Los nuevos crímenes de la calle Morgue", "Hijo del celuloide", "Rex Cabezacruda", "Confesiones del sudario (de un pornógrafo)", "Cabezas de turco" y "Restos humanos". Los Libros de Sangre son un compendio de oscuras visiones que se adentran en los sueños que se deslizan en secreto por nuestro subconsciente, aguardando para salir a la luz. Capaz de adentrarse tanto en lo inimaginable como en lo indescriptible, Clive Barker revive nuestras pesadillas más profundas y siniestras, creando visiones a la vez estremecedoras, conmovedoras y terroríficas
Katherine Maslin is plagued by a mysterious woman in her dreams... When she inherits her grandparents' property, she hopes the change of scenery will rid her of the dreams in which a strange woman begs her for help. But upon discovering the woman is her dead grandmother, she doubts the wisdom of moving to the farmhouse. A killer may have escaped justice... Kat's dreams lead her to discover that five men were murdered on the farm in the 1950s, but the shy farmhand who spent time behind bars might have been falsely accused. In possession of her grandmother's ring, she is sent spiraling back in time, determined to uncover the killer's true identity. A murderer wants secrets to remain buried... Learning more about the truth, she finds herself on a deadly path. There is also the matter of the little boy some people claim never existed. Led by the ghost of her grandmother, Kat uncovers clues and returns to her own time in a quest to change past events and save innocent lives. Kat is in a race against time to solve the mystery, but an unknown enemy is determined to stop her. Can she unmask the killer...b

The definitive guide to filmmaking and filmmakers by the best in the field. Horror 201: The Silver Scream, the follow-up to the Bram Stoker Award nominated Horror 101: The Way Forward, delves into the minds of filmmakers to see what it takes to produce great horror films, from the writing and funding process, to directing, producing, and writing tie-ins. It?s a tome of interviews and essays by some of our favorite artists. Film legends and authors such as John Carpenter, Wes Craven, George A. Romero, Ray Bradbury, Ed Naha, Patrick Lussier, Stephen Volk, Ramsey Campbell, Nancy Holder, Tom Holland, John Shirley, William Stout, and John Russo want to share their expertise with you through informative, practical, career-building advice. These are the folks behind movies and novelizations such as A Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream, Dark Shadows, Sleepy Hollow, Supernatural, Buffy, Resident Evil, The Stand, Sleepwalkers, Masters of Horror, The Fly, Critters, Tales from the Crypt, Child?s Play, Fright Night, Thinner, The Langoliers, Ted Bundy, Final Destination, Re-animator Unbound, Halloween, Apollo 18, The Eye
Lo abandonado y viejo muchas veces hay que evadirlo. La Muerte deambula esas cosas todo el tiempo, y tal es la maldición del ser humano, de investigar en lo desconocido.El cuadro nos muestra a La Muerte, dando su espectáculo en total abandono. Su melodía nos hipnotiza, y nos conduce a un funesto desenlace, al igual que el de la historia vinculada a esta pintura?
Krampus is a horned, anthropomorphic figure of legend with a classic half-goat half-demonic appearance.? The night of the 5th December is Krampusnacht, when this hairy devil appears on the streets ? on his own or accompanying St. Nicholas, but always carrying a bundle of birch twigs ready to punish those who have misbehaved.? At least, that?s how the folk-festivals that take place across Europe go.? The truth may be stranger still.? This is a sharp and intelligently written horror story that delves deep into seasonal mythology and folk legend.? An atmospheric and chilling tale of the dark side of the winter season.
