Neil Gaiman's Coraline - The most amazing nightmare

I read this book, when I was in 4th class on primary school and I took it as a brilliant horror story and a fairy tale in the same moment. But nothing more.
When I saw the movie after long time, I finally realised everything - It is the most amazing nigtmare, you could ever have.

Neil Gaiman - Coraline

The story is named after the main character - Coraline Jones, who moves with her parents to a new house. She is a very creative and adventurous person, with a great and original taste in everything, but the reality wants it a little bit diffrent - Coraline has to be like anybody else, wear boring grey clothes and mainly - stay in this old, boring house... But what if she could escape the reality?












She finds tiny door, leading to another place. Another house. Another life, with another parents - The other parents.

Everything in the other world is incredibly beautiful and Neil gives us many breath taking sceneries, born in his imagination. You wish Coraline would never leave it - nothing is grey, old or boring - The other world is colorful, full of adventures and surprises - Just perfect for our Coraline.



What could go wrong? Coraline is living her dream and finds a great escape from reality. But the dream suddenly becomes dark....









There is a nightmare behind all this beauty - a trap for our little heroine. Coraline has to play a game for her and her family's lives - Everything that used to be beautiful takes its real form and shows us the true...

Amazing story, tickling and teasing our imagination, but also making us scared and worried about Coraline's life.
