Tristante returns with a haunting story in true Stephen King's style, in which he treats what it is like to be a sensitive person with great respect, and with a vibrant terror in every word that you can hardly get out of your mind for days. Author's Note: Ghosts feed on our worst fears. Synopsis: For some people, seeing and feeling those who are no longer there is a gift; For others, it is a curse, especially when since you were a child you have had to deal with a succession of paranormal experiences that mark you for the rest of your life. Marcos is reluctant to live with Jorge, his partner, and four more of his college classmates, for fear of repeating the days and nights of nightmares and insomnia due to his gift. And he is not wrong. The boy regrets having accepted the proposal, because from minute one he is able to feel the dark secrets that the chosen apartment seems to hide. However, Marcos did not expect to find himself involved in living with people full of light, in a place where there are doors beyond the visible ones and through which spirits keep coming and going. But that is the least of their worries, because a greater shadow, loaded with darkness and evil, stalks and threatens them. What are you going to find? 1. Terror, suspense, tension and ghosts. 2. Fears, nightmares, traumas and the occult. 3. Chilling experiences. 4. LGBT, family, friendship and coexistence. What readers are saying: “ 'I am not dead' is, with great probability, one of Manuel's best works.

The bear then leads her to the very best snow, which can only be found where the moon sleeps.Once they arrive, the little girl and bear dance among the snowflakes.

I am Providence
by Nick MamatasFor fans of legendary pulp author H. P. Lovecraft, there is nothing bigger than the annual Providence-based convention the Summer Tentacular. Horror writer Colleen Danzig doesn't know what to expect when she arrives, but is unsettled to find that among the hob-knobbing between scholars and literary critics are a group of real freaks: book collectors looking for volumes bound in human skin, and true believers claiming the power to summon the Elder God Cthulhu, one of their idol's most horrific fictional creations, before the weekend is out. Colleen's trip spirals into a nightmare when her roommate for the weekend, an obnoxious novelist known as Panossian, turns up dead, his face neatly removed. What's more unsettling is that, in the aftermath of the murder, there is little concern among the convention goers. The Summer Tentacular continues uninterrupted, except by a few bumbling police. Everyone at the convention is a possible suspect, but only Colleen seems to show any interest in solving the murder. So she delves deep into the darkness, where occult truths have been lurking since the beginning of time. A darkness where Panossian is waiting, spending a lot of time thinking about Colleen, narrating a new Lovecraftian tale that could very well spell her doom.
