'House Taken Over' is composed by Julio Cortazar. It is about a pair of siblings from Argentina who discover that a group they refer to has "taken over" their house. The narrative begins very realistically but eventually transitions into magical realism, which is defined as any narrative in which supernatural (or magical) elements are presented as a component of the natural (or actual) world.

A 40-year-old Argentinian man who lives with his sister in a house they inherited from their parents narrates "House Taken Over."Prior to their breakup, the brother was engaged. Despite receiving multiple offers, the sister has never tied the knot.

During the first part of the story, neither of the siblings experiences anything particularly exciting. The siblings, in addition to taking care of their home, engage in their relatively uninteresting hobbies: The brother reads books while the sister knits.

The house is then occupied. It begins routinely with noises at first. The siblings won't go into the areas of the house where the noises come from because they don't want to. In areas of the house that "they" have taken over, the siblings even leave behind their belongings. When the enigmatic is taken over the final section, the siblings are eventually forced to leave their home completely. At the end of the story, rather than confronting the person or thing who has taken over their house, the siblings move out of it.
