Disney Announces Coco Dark Fantasy Novel Featuring La Llorona Legend

Disney’s popular A Twisted Tale young adult book series is officially expanding into the colorful universe of Pixar’s Coco with an upcoming novel titled Remember Me: A Twisted Tale! Written by acclaimed author Aiden Thomas, the anticipated dark fantasy book will dramatically reimagine young Miguel’s magical musical journey with a much darker, spookier supernatural twist.

Instead of the heartwarming family adventure fans fell in love with in the hit animated film, this bold iteration plunges Miguel into a far more eerie version of the Land of the Dead.

The story introduces the legendary weeping spirit of Mexican folklore, La Llorona, bringing a terrifying new threat to the narrative. This sinister addition transforms Miguel's search for his ancestral heritage into a deeply mysterious, high stakes battle for survival.

This shift marks a major departure from the uplifting tone of the original movie, offering long time Pixar enthusiasts a far more thrilling and haunting way to explore the rich mythos of Coco. 

Remember Me: A Twisted Tale is currently slated for release in Summer 2027. Are you excited to see Disney take Pixar's vibrant world down such a dark, mystical path?
