"Do Not Enter Room 1408: A Spanish Anthology Tribute to Stephen King" or "King: Tribute to the King of Terror" is an anthology of stories selected by the writer Jorge Luis Cáceres, featuring contributions from several of the most important authors from Latin America and Spain paying literary homage to the work and figure of the master of horror, Stephen King. By implementing the principles of canonical creation aimed at defining various keys to reading the fantasy genre, particularly Ibero-American horror, this book represents a cartography of fears and obsessions distributed geographically in Santiago, Buenos Aires, Quito, Barcelona, Madrid, Lima, Mexico City, Havana, etc. In other words, this book is a testament to the notion that horrors, if well written, can be developed in any territory, place, or setting. It is no longer strange to see zombies or cursed cars in Quito or La Paz; the strange thing would be not to see them. This anthology has been published in six countries and has had 7 editions: Ecuador, 2013, 2016; Mexico, 2014 by La Cifra Editorial; Argentina, 2015, by Interzona; Chile, 2017 by DasKapital; Spain, 2018 by Apache Libros; Peru, 2018 by Editorial Casatomada.
