An anthropologist vanished after studying old household rules: never answer a familiar voice from outside after dark, cover mirrors during wakes, do not correct a name spoken wrongly by the dead. Years later, his field notes are recovered. At first, Instructions for the Visitation appears to be a scholarly archive: interviews with elders, parish records, translation disputes, medical evaluations, fragments of suppressed babaylan-associated rites. The documents are damaged, contradictory, and carefully edited. They concern "visitation," an imperfect word for something older than haunting, older than folklore, and far more dangerous than belief. Because belief is not what invites it. Recognition does. As the archive unfolds, ordinary customs begin to form a procedure. A mistranslated prayer becomes a lock. A covered mirror becomes a refusal. A wrong name becomes protection. The dead may not be the only things that return, and the most dangerous act is not summoning them, but understanding how they arrive. The editors warn that these materials were never meant to exist in written form. They preserve the fragments anyway. Now the reader has them. And some instructions do not need to be spoken aloud to be followed.

There is no last name. There is only Rodrigo.
He does not call his work fiction. Each book is a transcription, written after a meal, preserved in words the way others preserve in salt or smoke. His readers call them horror. He calls them memory.
Rodrigo does not give interviews. He does not appear in photographs. The only proof that he exists is what you hold in your hands. He promises nothing but honesty, and honesty has a taste.
