Todas las ciudades del mundo esconden fantasmas dentro de sus muros y son muy pocas las personas que tienen la suerte o el don de verlos y escucharlos.
Entrada la noche, la Ciudad Fantástica emerge con ruidos, sombras y voces espectrales que surgen en distintos espacios. Uno nunca sabe cuándo ocurrirán estas horripilantes apariciones. Qué pasarÃa si hubiera algún tipo de artefacto mágico que te permitiera ver fantasmas y demás seres sobrenaturales? Luis y Caro tendrán la oportunidad de hallar unas antiguas reliquias con las que podrán hacer viajes al pasado y conocer las leyendas y la verdad que esconde la ciudad que habita la noche, aquella llena de seres espectrales. Lamentablemente, todo lo maravilloso en la vida tiene un costo, asà que tendrán que luchar contra aquellos ambiciosos que, por sed de poder, buscarán obtener los vestigios sagrados para hacer el mal. Esta es la historia de cómo una niña, un niño y un perro encuentran la llave que abre las puertas de la Ciudad Fantástica. Acompáñalos... a no ser que tengas miedo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION This is the story of a girl, a boy, and a dog who find the key that opens the gates to the Fantastic City. Explore with them this mystic version of Mexico City... unless you are afraid of ghosts. Every city in the world hides spirits. But very few people are lucky enough to see them and hear them. The Fantastic City emerges at night, with its own noises, shadows, and spectral voices. And no one knows when horrifying events will happen there. But what if there was a magical device that allowed you to see all the ghosts and supernatural beings that inhabit the city? Luis and Caro find an ancient key that helps them to make a trip to the past and discover many legends and hidden truths. Unfortunately, all wonders have a cost, and they will have to fight against very ambitious and dangerous people... or devils.Veka Duncan (CDMX, 1988) es historiadora del arte especializada en difusión y divulgación.
