Students can learn to use a variety of adjectives and adverbs to create detailed and atmospheric descriptions. Prepositions of Place: Understanding the spatial relationships in a scene is crucial in horror stories. Learners can practice using prepositions like "detrás", "debajo" y "entre". Noun Phrases: Horror stories frequently use complex noun phrases to describe objects and characters in detail. Students can learn to expand their sentences with additional information, making their descriptions more vivid. Relative Clauses: Using relative clauses ("quién", "cuál", "eso") can help learners add more detail to their sentences, enhancing their descriptive abilities. Conditionals: Horror stories often deal with hypothetical situations, making them a perfect medium to practice conditional sentences (if-clauses). For example, "Si hubiera escuchado las advertencias, podría haber sobrevivido." Past Tenses: These stories frequently shift between past simple, past continuous, and past perfect to build suspense and explain backstory. This helps learners understand and use different past tenses appropriately. Passive Voice: The passive voice is often used to create a sense of mystery or focus on the action rather than the subject. For instance, "La puerta se abrió lentamente por una fuerza invisible." Quotations and Reporting Verbs: Horror stories usually include a lot of dialogue, which can help learners practice direct and indirect speech. This is essential for understanding how to report what someone else has said. Perfect for students and lovers of the macabre, this book turns the mundane into the magical and the terrifying into the terrific. The horrors within these pages are not just for fright—they are tools to elevate your Spanish to new, thrilling heights.

Writing with humor, common sense, and a minimum of jargon, Joseph Keenan covers everything from pronunciation, verb usage, and common grammatical mistakes to the subtleties of addressing other people, "trickster" words that look alike in both languages, inadvertent obscenities, and intentional swearing. He guides readers through the set phrases and idiomatic expressions that pepper the native speaker's conversation and provides a valuable introduction to the most widely used Spanish slang. With this book, both students in school and adult learners who never want to see another classroom can rapidly improve their speaking ability.

His wife has left him, his father is sinking into dementia, and Marcos tries not to think too hard about how he makes a living. After all, it happened so quickly. First, it was reported that an infectious virus has made all animal meat poisonous to humans. Then governments initiated the “Transition.” Now, eating human meat—“special meat”—is legal. Marcos tries to stick to numbers, consignments, processing. Then one day he’s given a gift: a live specimen of the finest quality. Though he’s aware that any form of personal contact is forbidden on pain of death, little by little he starts to treat her like a human being. And soon, he becomes tortured by what has been lost—and what might still be saved.
