Selección Terror: El Collar de Fuego

# Catalog Note

"El collar de fuego" by Clark Carrados depicts a Hollywood film production where cinematographer Larry Bray observes shooting of an African jungle adventure picture. The narrative follows Bray's encounter with Kheffis, an actress playing a tribal queen in the film, whom Bray rescues from drunken attackers. Despite her dark complexion, Kheffis possesses striking green eyes and classical features. After learning Bray has recently returned from S'Habi in Africa, where he previously worked as a hunter and trader, Kheffis invites him to her home. Following an intimate encounter, Bray is urgently summoned by producer Jock Clarence to a residence where actor Gene Faid—who had previously harassed Kheffis—sits gravely ill, attended by a physician. The text suggests supernatural or mysterious elements connected to Kheffis and the fire collar artifact from the film.
