"Insightful, humane, and original, Something Followed Us Home features the most exciting voices in dark fiction today and is a must read for any weird/lit/horror fan." -Paul Tremblay, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie and A Head Full of Ghosts Dive into the chilling depths of Latin� horror with this groundbreaking anthology, edited by Bram Stoker Award winner Cynthia Pelayo, where each story reimagines immigration, colonization, faith, and folklore as the fears we inherit and carry across borders and generations. Something followed us home. It crawled in with our prayers, slipped into our beds, watched from mirrors, waited in water, and learned our names. Gathering chilling work from some of today's most acclaimed Latin� voices, this horror anthology moves through haunted households, brutal landscapes, sacred spaces turned dangerous, and bodies claimed by forces both ancient and intimate. The dead murmur behind locked doors. Bones rebuild themselves under merciless suns. Love becomes a doorway for demonic hunger. Blood, devotion, and memory intertwine as the past presses back with teeth. Something Followed Us Home is an unnerving, visceral, and impossible-to-shake collection that proves that what is carried forward does not remain quiet, and what follows us rarely leaves without taking something in return. Featuring stories by: Agustina Bazterrica, Isabel Ca�as, Gerardo S�mano C�rdova, Zoraida C�rdova, Ann D�vila Cardinal, Mariana Enriquez, Carolina Fl�rez-Cerchiaro, Xochitl Gonzalez, Leopoldo Go�t, Ananda Lima, Juan Martinez, M�nica Ojeda, Daniel Jos� Older, Cynthia Pelayo, Lilliam Rivera, Diana Rodriguez Wallach, Alex Segura
