Jonhy's Letter by Tomás Lerer

2008-06-26T06:21:00.000-07:00

Mina,
Hello!!!, I'm here in the Castle Dracula. This place is very strange... The Count is very strange too, he is tall, with red lips, white face and white hair. He always goes out at the morning and I'm alone here all day, but It's good, because I go to the library and read some very interesting books. The last week, I was shaving when suddenly the Count appeared (but I couldn't see him in the mirror), so I cut myself and his eyes shone with red fire (Why???).
Yesterday, three women wanted to kiss me, but Dracula appeared and he said: -Get back, he is mine!-. He always comes back at evening, and he asks me a lot about England.
Well, I miss you!!! I love you!!!
Bye...
Johny

Dear Mina, my love:

I want to say the terrible things that are happening in the castle. By the day i sit in the library to wait to Count Dracula, he is never at the castle, but he always apears at night. That's very strange!

I wanted to leave but the Count always have a reason for me to stay.

One day I was shaving with my mirror and Count Dracula came into the room, I didn't see him in my mirror, it was so strange!

Love you, and say a prayer for me please. I hope i get home soon.

Jonny

Dear Mina:

I'm here at the Dracula's castle and I'm very afraid and I'll tell you why.
When I arrived, some people told me about vampires and you probably asking why I'm telling you this.
When I came to the castle, the count had the aspect of vampire because he has sharp and white teeth and very red lips. At that moment, I didn't realised but it called my atention.

Today, while I was shaving, suddenly the count appeared. I really scared because I didn't see him in the mirror. I turned around and saw him . I cut myself and Dracula was very exciting when he saw the blood. His eyes were very big and his lips red.

I want to escape and I've just made a plan.
I'll try to steal the count's key, I'm going to take it while he is sleeping.

I'm afraid because here my days are count if i'm won't do the plan very soon.

You don't have to worry.
I hope I'll be home soon.

I love you and miss you a lot.

Yours,

John Harker.

Dear Mina,

This is an emergency, I'm a prisioner in Count Dracula's Castle. Strange things happened here ! I can't leave beacause Dracula locked all the dors and the windows, so I read books of Vampires to have information about Dracula.

I never seen Dracula in the day, so I supose that he is slepping. Came in the day with the police.

Don't trust in nobody in Transylvania. All most the people are Vampires so be careful.

DON'T CAME IN THE NIGHT PLEASE, IT'S VERY DANGEROUS.

I love you,

Jonahtan

In second grade my family and I move to Israel till last year,I was really happy when i saw Priscila again. She was so different, physically and mentally.Now we still are best friends because we still tell our secrets and still like joking and making funny things.When we are together we always laugh, she is a great person and a loyal friend. To me it´s very important a friend like this, someone I know that I can trust.

Guess where I'm writing from - a beautiful island in the middle of the ocean!. Arrived here on Wednesday, it's a great place, with a lot of trees, a wonderful beach and excelent people. The weather is really good, with a lot of sun. :-P I'm feeling very well, this place is spectacular!.
When I arrived here on Wednesday, I forgot my camera on the boat, but luckily I found it in the sand yesterday! Have had a lot of fun here, only Saturday was boring because the weather was bad and I had to stay in my hotel.
Have to finish - I'm going to go to the park now. I'm going to stay here in Calaki (that's the name of the island) for another three days, then I'm off to Rome. I'll write you again in a week.

Love
