The Spooky Horror Poetry Showroom · 1. Kölner Festival der Schauerliteratur
In the organizer's words:
In October - the advent season of the eerily beautiful Halloween - things get spooky, shocking and poetic in the Belgian Quarter.
On thirteen evenings, the "Showroom Renée Blume" will be transformed into a library of wonderful and eerie stories. Alexander Bach, Thomas Franke and host Renée Blume read about castle ghosts, sunken monasteries and terrible night watches. Of lifeless automatons, of madmen and revenants, of night mares, animal men and other spooky creatures.
In addition to their own stories, it is mainly poems and stories of the 19th century in which the reciters bring the dark side of romanticism to life.
The demonic, the abysmal and the fatal from the pens of such illustrious authors as E. T. A. Hoffmann, Theodor Storm and the Brothers Grimm, but also Edgar Allan Poe and H. P. Lovecraft, transform the showroom into an eerily beautiful retreat somewhere between bedlam and haunted house.
