Her goal is not to rest in peace but the opposite: Andrea Landa must tell to himself the history of her life in order to not to miss herself into the Fog who seeks for her, to not go to where all dead belong, to remain longer in the plane of existence known as the Veil. She still has a mission to fulfill. Her journey will take Andrea through Hell and through the world of Dream. She will cross the Europe of World War I and the Spain of the first half of the twentieth century, from the year of her death until the 1960s.
Atmosphere and influences
Dead People shows scenes of the atmosphere created by J.G. Mesa to locate his other works dedicated to the supernatural, MundoSolo, which could include the self-published El Exilio de Amún Sar or The Mountain. The extension of this setting, which not only include several worlds or planes of existence, but too a long history of them all, and the natural and supernatural characters included in it, all show reminiscences from H. P. Lovecraft and Neil Gaiman.
