EBOOK - That legend was real
This is the first book I've ever written. And I decided it would be a horror story. I was thinking... What could the theme be? What could I narrate? What is scary? Or what scares me? ... Well? First, I imagined the place where my story could begin. Which of my characters would narrate it? So I imagined the central theme would be a forest, a dark and gloomy forest. But what could the forest have that would be scary? And how should the story begin? How would the characters I created get there? I imagined what the personalities of my characters, and the macabre characters in my story, should be like. That's how I arrived at what scared me! ... Just by thinking about it and imagining it? I already get nervous! Because I have to imagine its color, its movement, its face! ... When? I already have almost 50% of the story; after that, it creates itself.
My story tells of a young boy with little experience in forests and travelling away from home. He lives in a family with a routine where surprises are rare. His older sister is soon to marry a young man from a very strange and mysterious family. They are all invited to spend a weekend in the woods, where a strange legend exists. And that weekend is Halloween!
Why should they go to that woods? To that very place where a macabre legend is woven?
The young boy is filled with curiosity about that strange family and that house. And even more so when his little dog is stolen in a very strange way.
Do you want to know what happened? Do you want to enter the author's imaginary world, where the ending is always unexpected?
Where real horror ceases to be a legend!
