Does the one who runs away from reality dream, or does the one who dreams hold on to reality?

The Haunted House carries not only the strange voices echoing in the walls of an old house, but also the voices of dreams, games and repressed desires wandering in the magical world of childhood. This extraordinary story, shaped by Dickens’ pen, reveals the rich inner world of a child caught between the exotic dreams of the East and the disciplined world of the West, with a unique blend of humor and sadness.

The “harem state” established by a little Harun, who oscillates between fantasy and reality, is not only an escape but also a tragicomic echo of growing up. In this text, Dickens blends child innocence, conflict with authority and the boundlessness of imagination with sharp wit and deep emotion.

At times laughing, at times heartbreaking, this story will fascinate not only Dickens lovers but also anyone who has not forgotten how to dream.
