Horror Story: The Weight of the Hammock

Before you begin reading “The Weight of the Hammock”, it is important to be aware of the nature of this narrative. This is a work of historical fiction with nuances of psychological and visceral horror, set in Colonial Brazil in 1726.

Originally written in Portuguese, the intent of this text is to confront the rawness and brutality of a period defined by invasions, territorial expansion, and bloody conflicts. To maintain historical accuracy and the story’s emotional impact, no details regarding the violence of the era have been spared.

Horror Story: The Guest

When I was a teenager I used to write short horror stories. Nothing special. Just a kid with a notebook and too many late nights watching things he probably should not have watched.

Then life happened. School. Work. The endless scroll of adulthood. The notebooks gathered dust. The stories stopped.

Until Halloween 2025.

I sat down and I wrote. For the first time in over a decade I wrote something that scared me.
