A Luz de Tina
by Richard Stooker Catia A. G. FernandesVinte e um anos depois, Paul Templeton ainda não sabe se no seu antigo sonho é ele quem viola e assassina a sua própria irmã. O assassino talhante escapa. Os pesadelos torturam Paul. Se não foi ele quem assassinou Tina, como pôde ele testemunhar o assassinato, sonhar que assistiu a tudo através de um espelho? Agora, uma bela jovem vem viver para o bairro, lembrando-lhe Tina. Estará também o assassino atrás dela? Embora Paul nunca tenha tocado em Tina de outra forma além da fraternal, ama-a como mulher. Enquanto ela esteve viva e 21 anos depois da sua morte macabra. Agora, um homem de negócios tailandês, acompanhado pela sua bela filha Khamnah, vem viver para o bairro de Paul. Khamnah tem tantas semelhanças com Tina, e isso magoa Paul. Também ela tem o brilho da luz do Mundo Oculto, o universo espiritual transcendente onde vive Tina. A luz brilhante do coração e da personalidade de Khamnah ajuda Paul a ignorar os escárnios céticos do psiquiatra Jack Harrison. Mas não consegue esquecer a ameaça do violador talhante que é procurado pela polícia. Dez mulheres nos últimos cinco meses. Um modus operandi similar ao do assassino de Tina, há 21 anos atrás. Paul teme pela vida de Khamnah, pois receia que a história se possa repetir. Nessa noite, sonha novamente, mas não é a cara de Tina que vê no espelho. Em vez disso, vê Khamnah sentada a escovar o cabelo, enquanto o assassino entra. Este conto NÃO é para si se: 1. Fica incomodado com referências a sexualidade "desviante". 2. Não consegue lidar com uma descrição não-gratuita de violação e assassinato. 3. Procura um conto erótico explícito para alimentar as suas próprias fantasias "desviantes". 4. Não quiser considerar as fronteiras entre a fantasia e a realidade, e entre a obsessão emocional e os poderes psíquicos. 5. Prefere histórias sobre pessoas "normais". (Embora,

La Luz Nocturna: Cuidado con lo que deseas
by Alex ZuchiMi nombre es Antônio Pereira, pero todos me conocen como Arthur Black. Soy un escritor. He sido rico, influyente y codiciado, gracias a mis historias infantiles. He perdido casi todo, ya saben cómo es... lo que viene fácil, fácil se va... Ya que estoy abriendo mi corazón, debo confesar que mentí sobre mi libro más famoso. Aquel libro que se convirtió en un gran éxito en el cine. Siempre pensé que jamás hablarían sobre el asunto, pero yo estaba equivocado. Me contactó el hombre que conoce mi secreto y me hizo una oferta que no pude rechazar. Le prometí que escribiría un nuevo cuento infantil y que seguiría todas sus reglas. Comienzo a darme cuenta de que hay algo muy extraño en este lugar al que me trajo y en el que luego me dejó solo. Mis noches son atormentadas por situaciones que escapan a mi comprensión. ¿Alucinaciones? ¿Realidad? No sé decirlo. Hay puertas en este mundo que se abren en lugares desconocidos. Tal vez ellas son las responsables del surgimiento de las siluetas, las voces y la luz blanca e intensa que irrumpe desde la oscuridad del campo. Cada día que permanezco aquí, más nebulosa se vuelve mi percepción. La única certeza que tengo es que el libro que escribo todos los días se vuelve completamente diferente justo después de irme a dormir.
