«La obsesión de Julia» is the horror novel by American writer Peter Straub, published in 1985 in paperback (265 pages, in Spanish).
After the death of her daughter and the end of her marriage, Julia Lofting moves to a house in London to rebuild her life. Soon strange phenomena begin to occur: she hears voices, objects move, and she senses a presence behind her. A medium warns her that there is a spirit in the house that wants to harm her, linked to an old crime.
Translated by José Ferrer, the novel is the Spanish version of Full Circle, whose original was published in 1975; in Spain it appeared in the Éxitos collection from Plaza y Janés.
Recommended for readers of supernatural horror, ghost stories, and psychological suspense.
