O Quarto dos Horrores (The Bloody Chamber) es una célebre colección de relatos cortos de la escritora británica Angela Carter. En esta obra, la autora reinventa cuentos de hadas clásicos con un enfoque gótico, feminista y sensual, explorando temas de deseo, poder y transformación. Esta edición en portugués, publicada por Editorial Caminho dentro de su colección de ficción científica y fantástica, presenta historias oscuras y bellamente escritas que desafían las convenciones tradicionales de los relatos populares, convirtiéndose en una pieza fundamental de la literatura contemporánea.
