In Argentina, terror is introduced in a different way; foreign myths and extraterrestrial apparitions are no longer necessary because our own historical-political past is constituted by an immense amount of elements worthy of causing horror. Through the analysis of the short story “Bajo el agua negra” (2016), by Mariana Enríquez, this paper proposes to account for a particularly Argentine type of terror, which is built from the collective fear of society to the crimes committed in and by the last Argentine civil-military dictatorship, which took place between the years 1976 and 1983, with a focus on the disappearances of people. We will work not only with theoretical-critical texts that address this genre and its performance in our literature, but also with Enríquez’s interviews and testimonies. A lo largo de la historia de la literatura, el género fantástico y el de terror fueron asociados con la aparición de lo sobrenatural y de lo desconocido. En Argentina, el terror se introduce de manera distinta; ya no son necesarios los mitos extranjeros ni las apariciones extraterrestres, porque nuestro propio pasado histórico-político está conformado por una inmensa cantidad de elementos dignos de causar horror. A través del análisis del cuento “Bajo el agua negra” (2016) de Mariana Enríquez, este trabajo propone dar cuenta de un tipo de terror particularmente argentino, que se construye a partir del miedo colectivo de la sociedad a los crímenes cometidos en y por la última dictadura cívico-militar argentina, sucedida entre los años 1976 y 1983, con el foco puesto en las desapariciones de personas. No solo trabajaremos con textos teórico-críticos que abordan este género y su desempeño en nuestra literatura, sino también con entrevistas y testimonios de Enríquez. Universidad Nacional de Córdoba.
