Algunas Casas Encantadas [Some Haunted Houses]
Esta colección de relatos cortos escrita por Ambrose Bierce transcurre en una atmósfera sombría y escalofriante entorno a misteriosas casas que, al ser testigos de hechos macabros en el pasado, presentan fama de estar habitadas por sucesos extraños. Una extraña sensación de desasosiego se adentra en tu imaginación a medida que la prosa de Bierce detalla con calma lo que parecen ser los embrujos de algunas casas encantadas. Fantasmas, cabezas rodantes, habitaciones ocultas y embrujadas, tumbas espantosas y horripilantes con lapsus en el tiempo.
Ambrose Bierce no intenta que creas en los fantasmas, pero te hará creer en embrujos y misterios ocultos. Las casas de los relatos de Bierce te pondrán los pelos de punta.
Algunas Casas Encantadas fue publicado por The Neale Publishing Company en 1910.
Este audiolibro está producido con un diseño sonoro y dramatización que brinda una mejor experiencia y emoción al oyente.

Caustic wit and a strong sense of horror mark works, including In the Midst of Life (1891-1892) and The Devil's Dictionary (1906), of American writer Ambrose Gwinett Bierce.
People today best know this editorialist, journalist, and fabulist for his short story, An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge and his lexicon.
The informative sardonic view of human nature alongside his vehemence as a critic with his motto, "nothing matters," earned him the nickname "Bitter Bierce."
People knew Bierce despite his reputation as a searing critic, however, to encourage younger poet George Sterling and fiction author W.C. Morrow.
Bierce employed a distinctive style especially in his stories. This style often embraces an abrupt beginning, dark imagery, vague references to time, limited descriptions, the theme of war, and impossible events.
Bierce disappeared in December 1913 at the age of 71 years. People think that he traveled to Mexico to gain a firsthand perspective on ongoing revolution of that country.
Theories abound on a mystery, ultimate fate of Bierce. He in one of his final letters stated: "Good-bye. If you hear of my being stood up against a Mexican stone wall and shot to rags, please know that I think it is a pretty good way to depart this life. It beats old age, disease, or falling down the cellar stairs. To be a Gringo in Mexico--ah, that is euthanasia!"
