Infos

Seville, 1499.
An inquisitorial scribe is sent to deliver a sealed document-marked with black wax-to a figure no one dares name aloud: Fray Sanguinius.

What begins as a routine assignment soon spirals into a descent through dream, rot, and revelation. Whispers crawl from behind crucifixes. Mirrors refuse to reflect. Blood appears where no wound exists. Something ancient, buried beneath the stones of faith, is stirring-and it speaks in ink.

The Crypt of the Inquisitor is a literary gothic horror novel set in late 15th-century Spain, blending historical realism with ritual, hallucination, and apocalyptic dread. Told through the haunted journals of Jerónimo de Alcalá, and punctuated by letters, visions, forbidden manuscripts, and secret documents, this is the chronicle of a man whose words may awaken the very thing he was sent to contain.

From burning plazas to sealed crypts beneath the cathedral, from celestial maps to mirrors made of obsidian, Jerónimo begins to suspect he is not the author of his destiny-
but the parchment upon which something else is writing.

For fans of Poe, Lovecraft, and The Name of the Rose, this novel offers a slow-burning descent into theological madness, historical terror, and symbolic possession.

If you open the door...
make sure it doesn't close behind you.
