Clark Carrados: ¡Déjame dormir en mi tumba!
Museum Catalog Description This Spanish-language pulp horror collection, *Selección Terror* no. 282 (Barcelona: Editorial Bruguera, 1978), features "¡Dejame Dormir en Mi Tumba!" by Clark Carrados. The narrative begins in 1701 with Lord Edgard Threswin selling his corpse to surgeon-chemist John Jonas Ferries for five thousand pounds sterling, with intent to resurrect and control it. Ferries possesses a grimoire detailing necromantic revival. After Threswin is murdered by hired assassins over an affair, Ferries conducts his experiment but is himself killed during a robbery. His scientific papers remain forgotten in Shagmore Hall's attic for centuries. The story shifts to present-day negotiations between debt-ridden Richard Weston and creditor Norrie Heoghill over the estate, with Weston proposing a revised settlement. A parallel narrative introduces Percy Kallenby, a gambler at a rigged casino who experiences unexpected luck at the roulette wheel, assisted by an attractive female croupier.
