BR 2-11: The Cup in the Forest

'Per and Nina are no holiday in the country. They find a strange Viking cup in a dark forest. The cup is very old and interesting. But now there is a strange man at the hotel and per is afraid...' (back cover of The Cup in the Forest)

I read The Cup in the Forest which is an illustrated book written by Anne Collins. This is horror story, and it is my first time to read horror story in English. I think that there are no ghorst on earth, because I have never had a weird experience. However, I feel weirdly when I see horror movie. This time, I feel so. It is the real thrill of the horror story, I think, and I like it.

In this story, Per and Nina take the cup. If I find such the cup in the dark forest, I don't touch it. If it looks expensive, I don't take it. First of all, I don't want to touch it, because it is so uncanny. Taking it away? I cannot understand why they did such a thing.

I want to observation of this book from another point of view. There is a picture of their car. I think that the car is OPEL VITA(in Europe, it is called CORSA). Charactor's car is often written on the book, but being written real car is rare, I think. It is interesting for me.
