The house with a hundred steps

La casa de los cien escalones is a Spanish-language horror novel by David Jasso, published by Obscura Editorial (1st edition dated 16/10/2024) and running 368 pages.  It blends psychological thriller tension with paranormal horror and a classic “haunted place” atmosphere.
It starts with a writer whose career is fading.  When he begins exchanging emails with an amateur writer who is at her breaking point, his curiosity turns cruel—he pushes her to take her own life.  From that moment on, he is pursued by a sinister, ghostly woman, twisted in both presence and intent.  At the same time, a family staying in a rural house begins to experience the visits of the same terrifying figure.
As fear escalates, the writer and the family are forced to work together to understand why the apparition has appeared and what is driving the recent horrors.  Their only way out leads straight to the nightmare’s source: the house of the hundred steps.
This book is for readers who want horror that hits on two levels—external terror and internal guilt—where one decision can echo like a curse.  If you enjoy eerie mysteries, escalating dread, and stories that keep you turning pages late into the night, this one is built for you. It’s also a strong pick for fans of modern Spanish horror who want a gripping plot with a supernatural edge, not just jump scares.
Read it for the chills, stay for the psychological pressure—and the unsettling question of what you’d do if your worst impulse came back to find you.
