The story

What Is The Bogeyman About?

The premise of The Bogeyman without spoilers.

When 10‑year‑old Nemo’s mother dies suddenly, he is sent to live with his maternal uncle’s family. They are friendly and treat him kindly, but his 12‑year‑old cousin Iván begins teasing him with stories about the Bogeyman, warning that the creature will come for him if he misbehaves. At first Nemo dismisses the tales as Iván’s imagination, but the ominous legend starts to haunt his thoughts.
