description Mexican Gothic Overview

Silvia Moreno-Garcias 'Mexican Gothic' is a lush, atmospheric, and terrifying homage to classic gothic horror. Set in 1950s Mexico, it follows a socialite who travels to a remote mansion to save her cousin from a mysterious illness. The house itself is a character, filled with secrets, rot, and a creeping, fungal horror. It is a beautifully written, slow-burn novel that combines historical detail with supernatural dread.

It is a perfect choice for readers who enjoy classic gothic tropes updated with a fresh, modern perspective.
