Selección Terror: El muerto que no murió
· 1974

A Spanish-language pulp horror cover featuring a grotesque mummy suspended against a blood-red sun, looming over a distorted human face rendered in sickly greens and yellows. The composition stacks horror imagery vertically—death above, terror below—while bold yellow and red typography announces the genre and story title. Published by Bolsilibros, a major Spanish pulp imprint, this cover exemplifies the lurid painted aesthetic that defined the horror pulp market of the 1970s. The "death that did not die" premise echoes the mummy revival narratives popular across pulp magazines, where resurrection and the undead provided reliable thrills for devoted readers seeking supernatural menace in compact, disposable format.
