Description

A mysterious night looms over a realm where every malady, terror and ancient curse is sealed behind bronze doors, guarded by a narrator who wrestles with destiny itself. Beneath the surface lie forgotten cities—submerged in water, fire and mud—where the seven sins once flourished and the echoes of prophets still haunt the ruins. These hidden realms pulse with a grotesque sensuality, hinting at a world where demons have already reclaimed the earth.

Into this uncanny landscape stride two flamboyant wanderers: a Pierrot‑clad figure whose ethereal, almost angelic bearing masks a mischievous heart, and a modern, intoxicating woman whose dark elegance draws the eye of every onlooker. Their shared curiosity ignites a daring pact, leading them through a carnival of disguises toward the legendary Night of Walpurgis. There, amid masks and whispered promises, the adventure begins, inviting listeners to follow their perilous, seductive quest into the unknown.

About the author

Antonio de Hoyos y Vinent

Antonio de Hoyos y Vinent

1885–1940

A striking voice of Spanish decadence, this aristocratic novelist wrote dark, stylish fiction that explored desire, excess, and the margins of polite society. His life was as dramatic as his books, moving from literary fame to political commitment and a tragic end in prison during the Spanish Civil War.
