Ninoslav Mitrovi\u0107<\/strong> (Doboj, 1976) is a Serbian writer from Republika Srpska and an ethnologist and computer scientist by profession. He lives and works in Banja Luka. He is considered a pioneer of contemporary horror fiction in Republika Srpska, and his work, inspired by Slavic mythology and folk traditions, holds an important place in the development of the genre.<\/p>\n

He is the author of the short story collection Gluvo doba<\/em> (2012, 2022), the horror novel Crni pupoljak<\/em> (2019), and the novel Vrapci u oluji<\/em> (2021). His prose draws extensively on folkloric heritage, mythical and demonic beings, and supernatural elements, placing them within a recognizable local cultural and historical context. Gluvo doba<\/em> comprises nine stories about demonic beings from Serbian folk tradition, thematically divided into three cycles focusing on female, male, and child demons. Crni pupoljak<\/em> creates an atmosphere of psychological and supernatural horror through four interconnected stories, while Vrapci u oluji<\/em> is set in eastern Serbia in the 1920s and follows the fate of a returning war veteran whose choices set in motion a story of guilt, remorse, and revenge.<\/p>\n

His stories have appeared in genre and thematic journals, including Omaja<\/em>, Naslije\u0111e<\/em>, and Srp<\/em>, as well as in numerous thematic collections and anthologies, including the collection Nevidbog<\/em>, which features his story \u201cHromi.\u201d In 2023, the collection Gluvo doba<\/em> was also adapted into a graphic novel of the same title, with all nine stories transformed into graphic-novel form.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
