The Dark Carnival

Ray Bradbury led a quiet revolution in the horror and mysticism genre. He placed evil in cozy American towns. Without «The Dark Carnival», there would be no «It» by Stephen King and «Coraline» by Neil Gaiman. Welcome to the carnival! Here, Mr. Harris dreams of getting rid of his skeleton. A baby attempts to kill its mother and father. Aunt Tildy battles death. And in the old Gothic mansion, the Elliott family prepares to celebrate Halloween. All the numerous relatives are invited: vampires, werewolves, and other creatures of the night. Will there be a place at this celebration for Timmy, the only ordinary child in the family? You will enjoy this book if you have watched the series «Stranger Things», «It: Welcome to Derry», and «Twin Peaks».
