La máscara de Cthulhu

by H. P. Lovecraft

Los seis cuentos pertenecen a ese universo onírico en el que se libra la eterna lucha entre las fuerzas del bien y del mal lovecraftiano. Los seis relatos incluidos en este volumen bajo el título de La máscara de Cthulhu versan sobre temas, situaciones y personajes bien conocidos por los aficionados al género. Tanto el horrible secreto que rodea los inexplicables sucesos posteriores a la muerte de Amos Tuttle en "El regreso de Hastur", como el inexplicable acuerdo que da origen a "El pacto de Sandwin" o los extraños acontecimientos que siguen al descubrimiento de los papeles de Sylvan Phillips en "El sello de R'lyeh", tienen en común el horror cósmico que vigila implacable desde más allá de las fronteras del tiempo.Los cuentos contenidos en esta colección fueron escritos por August Derleth como "colaboraciones póstumas" con HP Lovecraft. Derleth fue el editor, amigo y albacea de Lovecraft y el centro del Círculo de Cthulhu. Estas historias se basan en los manuscritos incompletos del gran escritor, que Derleth completó después de su muerte. En el solo caso de "El regreso de Hastur", fue el mismo Lovecraft quien le sugirió, todavía en vida, el tema y argumento a su discípulo.

La masacre de Kruguer

by Luciano Lamberti

En un formato que mezcla entrevistas documentales con recreación ficcional, Lamberti presenta la historia de una pesadilla que se aproxima lentamente para mostrarse al fin con todo su horror y su locura. En el pequeño pueblo de montaña de Kruguer cada 26 de junio se realiza la Fiesta de la Nieve: ante la atenta mirada de los turistas, la comunidad se reúne en la plaza a disfrutar bailes típicos, asado de cordero, muestras gratis de chocolate y ríos de cerveza alemana. Los negocios se llenan y la recaudación sirve para aguardar la llegada del verano. Pero en la celebración del año 1987 algo sucede, algo que venían sospechando desde los pueblos vecinos: el asesinato de casi la totalidad de la población. La crítica ha dicho... «No solo es inteligente para armar una historia, Luciano Lamberti también es sensible y salvaje, como la literatura que nos gusta leer y vivir. O bueno, tal vez no tanto vivir».Mariano Quirós «La -por ahora- trilogía de El asesino, El loro y La casa de los eucaliptus condensa, con sus diferencias de estilo y recursos, un cúmulo de historias tan nacionales como a Borges le gustaría, es decir, historias universales».Sebastián Rodríguez Mora, revista Crisis «Luciano Lamberti es un escritor sorprendente: puede ser aterrador, como en La casa de los eucaliptos, o encarnar el espíritu de una época y una generación en El asesino de chanchos o inquietar con una novela anómala en la literatura contemporánea argentina como La maestra rural. Cada uno de sus libros es, para mí, un acontecimiento».Mariana Enriquez

Mary, Will I Die?

by Shawn Sarles

It starts innocently enough. Four kids - three girls, one boy - are at one of their houses, playing games. One of them has read about "Bloody Mary" and the idea that if you look into a mirror and say her name thirteen times, she will show you the future. Some legends say she'll show you your one true love or a skull to mark your death within five years. Others say that conjuring Bloody Mary will bring her into your world. Both sets of legends are true. The kids go through with the act, saying her name thirteen times. One girl looks in the mirror and sees her longtime crush. One girl looks in the mirror and sees the boy in the group. But she pretends to see something else. One girl looks in the mirror and sees a girl she's never seen before but can't get out of her mind. And the boy . . . he sees a skull. But he pretends to see something else. They try to laugh it off. And mostly they forget about it. Or at least they don't talk about it. Yes, over the next few years, whenever they look into a mirror, it's like there's always another figure standing in the background, getting closer. Just short of five years later, the four of them are no longer friends, having gone on separate paths. The girl whose house it was has always tried to avoid the mirror they used - because she always sensed someone in the background. One morning as she's passing by, she sees much more than her own reflection - it's a scary figure taunting her. She startles and breaks the mirror. When the pieces are put back together (barely), the figure is gone. That day in school, a new girl arrives. Her name is Mary . . . .

Mary Ventura and The Ninth Kingdom: A Story

by Sylvia Plath

Never before published, this newly discovered story by literary legend Sylvia Plath stands on its own and is remarkable for its symbolic, allegorical approach to a young woman’s rebellion against convention and forceful taking control of her own life. Written while Sylvia Plath was a student at Smith College in 1952, Mary Ventura and The Ninth Kingdom tells the story of a young woman’s fateful train journey.Lips the color of blood, the sun an unprecedented orange, train wheels that sound like “guilt, and guilt, and guilt”: these are just some of the things Mary Ventura begins to notice on her journey to the ninth kingdom.“But what is the ninth kingdom?” she asks a kind-seeming lady in her carriage. “It is the kingdom of the frozen will,” comes the reply. “There is no going back.”Sylvia Plath’s strange, dark tale of female agency and independence, written not long after she herself left home, grapples with mortality in motion.

Mary: The Summoning (Bloody Mary #1)

by Hillary Monahan

There is a right way and a wrong way to summon her. Jess had done the research. Success requires precision: a dark room, a mirror, a candle, salt, and four teenage girls. Each of them--Jess, Shauna, Kitty, and Anna--must link hands, follow the rules . . . and never let go. A thrilling fear spins around the room the first time Jess calls her name: "Bloody Mary. Bloody Mary. BLOODY MARY." A ripple of terror follows when a shadowy silhouette emerges through the fog, a specter trapped behind the mirror. Once is not enough, though--at least not for Jess. Mary is called again. And again. But when their summoning circle is broken, Bloody Mary slips through the glass with a taste for revenge on her lips. As the girls struggle to escape Mary's wrath, loyalties are questioned, friendships are torn apart, and lives are forever altered. A haunting trail of clues leads Shauna on a desperate search to uncover the legacy of Mary Worth. What she finds will change everything, but will it be enough to stop Mary--and Jess--before it's too late?

A guest of the Baxter family, Mary arrives in Dundee, befriending young Isabella Baxter. The girls soon spend hours together wandering through fields and forests, concocting tales about mythical Scottish creatures, ghosts and monsters roaming the lowlands.
