Sumario:We propose a path in argentinean horror narrative that dialogues with the notion of"becoming american" (Berardi, 2017). On the first part, we make a critical and comparativereading of three texts: "El niño proletario" (1973) by Osvaldo Lamborghini, El mal menor(1996) by Charlie Feiling and "El chico sucio" (2016) by Mariana Enriquez. On the second part, we reflect on the fact that there is an alleged impossibility of generating "terror" inargentinean literature by comparing the novel Beber en rojo (2001) by Alberto Laiseca, thatwe believe confirms that assumption, and another that denies it: Nuestra parte de noche(2019) by Mariana Enríquez. Before the conclusions, we consider how these issues arisetoo in the field of Argentinean cinema.We ask ourselves how the critical reading of these incursions in terror may be able toenrich Berardi's hypothesis. Our methodology is based on critical and comparative readingand is complemented with the perspective of cultural studies.
