"Escribo para que sufran", decía.
En realidad, Águeda detestaba a todo el mundo, en especial a su familia, a quienes siempre tachó de chapuceros, flojos, interesados, y con pelo feo.
Un trágico día, Águeda muere electrocutada en su sillón de masajes y deja su inmensa fortuna a aquel pariente que consiga pasar doce noches en su colección de propiedades embrujadas .
Fantasmas, muñecos poseídos, castillos encantados y un sinfín de aterradores escenarios esperan a los Chacón.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Agueda Chacon Churruca made a great fortune writing her horror books, her readers adored her, although she hated them: "I write to make them suffer," she would say. In fact, Agueda detested everyone, especially her family, whom she always labeled as sloppy, lazy, clingy, and having ugly hair.
One tragic day, Agueda dies electrocuted in her massage chair and leaves her immense fortune to that relative who can manage to spend twelve nights in her collection of haunted houses. Ghosts, possessed dolls, enchanted castles, and endless frightening situations await the Chacon family.
