Los trabajos del infierno

Las ciudades están llenas de historias. Historias que pasan de boca en boca susurradas siempre con un poco de inquietud y con un leve estremecimiento. Nadie sabe si en realidad sucedieron. Nadie sabe si el taxi demoníaco cuyo recorrido finaliza en las húmedas bóvedas del cementerio existe. Nadie sabe si es verdad que la escalofriante confesión de la enfermera asesina está escrita con sangre humana. No, nadie lo sabe. Sin embargo, todos repiten estos relatos con la voz entrecortada por el miedo.
