Paperback — $30.00 · Horror / Suspense · Published February 15, 2025
The Dollmaker’s Curse is supernatural horror set in a small, eerie town. A dollmaker’s lifelike creations each hold a fragment of their owner’s soul, taken in exchange for a darkest desire. When Sarah inherits the shop, dolls begin to whisper, shadows move on their own, and townspeople disappear — and she must confront the malevolent spirit behind the curse before she becomes its newest doll.
Burgos conjures a gothic atmosphere of dread and longing, where every bargain has a price and every beautiful thing may be listening. Elegant, chilling, and deeply human, this is a haunted tale about desire, inheritance, and the courage required to break a curse that feeds on both. Some shops, after all, should never be inherited.
