Presentation transcript:

Let The Right One In A slide show by Gunnar Harrison

John Ajvide Lindqvist Born in 1968 in Blackeberg, Sweden. Specializes in horror stories.

Oskar Main protagonist. 12-year-old victim of school bullies. Parents are divorced due to alcoholic abuse. Lives next to a very strange girl.

Hakan Pedophile. Collects blood to feed to Eli, the vampire girl he lives with. Becomes mutated towards the end and hunts Eli and Oskar down.

Favorite Character: Eli Oskar’s vampire next door neighbor. Becomes very good friends with Oskar. Can only come out at night. Very old; her past and creation are mysterious.

Least Favorite Character: Oskar’s Father A raging alcoholic. Divorced from Oskar’s mother after one of his alcohol- induced outbursts. Oskar visits him from time to time.

Exposition Oskar is a bullied boy at school who has no friends until he meets Eli, his mysterious next-door neighbor who’s also a vampire. Insane events unfold.

Rising Action The rising action occurs when Hakan escapes the hospital. He is physically deformed and is on the hunt for Oskar and Eli.

Climax The climax occurs when Hakan and Eli face off in the basement of their apartment complex.

Falling Action After the police find the bodies and Hakan is defeated, the action starts to fall into a more soothing tone.

Resolution Hakan is dead and Oskar is still alive and doing well. Or so it seems… The ending of this book is the most satisfying thing I’ve ever read.

Setting Blackeberg, Sweden 1982 A dreary, dark place.

Theme Dark (vampires, violence) Warm (coming of age romance) Uplifting (mostly the ending)

Personal Rating 9/10. It’s a very well written book that will reward the reader as long as you can stomach some of the more brutal sections. A very satisfying ending.

Social Issue I’ve chosen to write about alcohol abuse as my social issue. It’s a common problem throughout the world that needs to be recognized more often.
