Reddish brown background showing detail of an ornate wood carving. Foreground is text that reads: For all its beauty, no saints, no heroes, no angels inhabit this villa—only ghosts and secrets. Manibo has crafted a pitch-perfect modern gothic, in which the personal is political and there is no such thing as the past: only facets of a dangerous and suffocating present. - Premee Mohamed Nebula, World Fantasy, and Aurora Award-winning author Below the text is an image of the hardcover for THE VILLA, ONCE BELOVED by Victor Manibo On the lower left and lower right hand corners are the logos of Erewhon Books and Kensington books respectively

Based on true events, THE VILLA, ONCE BELOVED is a contemporary gothic horror set in a cursed manor on a coconut plantation—and it’s coming this fall.

Thank you, @premeemohamed.com, for the kind words!

Day 3 of Filipino folklore. Anting Anting-anting have a long history in the Philippines. These items, which may be amulets, clothing, or charms, are said to hold miraculous power. Some of the most common abilities: - An immunity to bullets, blades, or physical harm - Protection against curses - Exorcism of spirits - Increased attraction from the opposite gender - The ability to curse others

The symbols of an anting-anting are a hodgepodge of precolonial animism, Catholic mysticism, and local symbols a nd phrases. Some of the more common symbols you'll see are the all-seeing eye, suns and stars, and the Sator Square, angelic seals, and invented script. But once you have a charm, you must keep it fed. This might require living a virtuous life, reciting secret prayers, or anointing it with blood or holy water.

Day 3 of Filipino folklore in the run-up to House of Monstrous Women's release! Today, we have anting! Charms that can protect you from bullets to curses.

Oh that cover is gorgeous and I love the taglines
