Synopsis
"The oldest emotion and most intense of mankind is fear, and the oldest and most intense fears is the fear of unknown. " That is how one of the wizards of terror, HP Lovecraft, fear.

Since the end of the century Romanticism Eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the tale of terror has been present, and very acclaimed in the literary scene.

OPINION OF BETHLEHEM MARQUEZ
Make a horror story is not easy, let alone get as large a quantity and quality. The truth is I left a good impression because, lately, all the anthologies I read left much to be desired.
Knowing how to write a good story is very difficult. In a very short time you have to capture the attention of the reader, trap and leave satisfied. I enjoyed this anthology because it can find everything: vampires, ghosts, monsters, graveyards ..., a collection of nightmares that make you hair stand on end and look furtively around you. I do not recommend reading this book at night, or maybe yes, because the great success of these stories is that, indeed, tell stories about those fears that live in our nightmares. It is obvious that some stories we like better than others, but not because they are better or worse written but because the fear is more or less adjusted to our reality. We've all had nightmares when we were children, some of which-those that gave us more afraid, remain latent within us, lurking, waiting for that brief moment in which "something" to make them reappear, and that "something" found in each of these stories do you dare to discover?
say which one I liked is simply impossible. I recognize that there is someone that has not made me feel a special terror but most have managed to convey that feeling of discomfort that causes you fear. I can only congratulate the authors and encourage Red Circle to do more events like this.
I leave a list with the title of the stories we find in this anthology, some very suggestive:

footprint Baltasar
