Blackeberg-visit April 2019 (REQUEST!)

Post by Unconditional » Sat Apr 06, 2019 2:12 pm

Hello everyone!

Some background information first about me:
I live in South Korea but I am from Sweden originally (Malmö). I read Låt Den Rätte Komma In when I was around 11 years old and fell in love with the character Eli, a very strange experience for me at the time. I haven't been in love since then but recently got a new girlfriend who reminds me of that exact same feeling I had at the time. I started reading the book again and got all of those feelings back once again. It's been a few strange months I have to say.

I got an urge to visit Stockholm and more specifically Blackeberg. I also had a dream about being there and talking to Eli which was totally bizarre, but I took it as a sign that I should go there. I was too late for Dakkar's thread he/she uploaded with the pictures and now they are gone so I never got to see them...
This journey will be by the end of April or start of May. I wonder which places I should visit and take pictures of? I will upload an entirely new thread dedicated to those pictures later. I now wonder, which places should I go to? Please give me the address to it as well. A few places I already know I want to go is inside the building of where they lived in the book, perhaps even go inside the apartment (yes, I will ring the door bell and ask if I can take pictures, Swedes are more openly minded than most people might think but if they don't want I totally understand too haha!) and also the playground and will climb the jungle gym and take pictures from above.

So... request any place from the book for me to visit! :D

For me it's more real than most of what's going on

I hope you can buy this book, Staden I skogen.

I was able to by it directly from the author. :)

It is all Blackeberg, and very complete. Curiously, there is no reference in it to LTROI.
“For drama to deepen, we must see the loneliness of the monster and the cunning of the innocent.”
