Eli has recently moved to the building and comes out only at night. One night he meets Eli (Lina Leandersson), a strange pale girl who seems to be of his same age. Living with his mother in an apartment building, Oskar spends his time meditating alone and dreaming about getting revenge from the classmates who bully him. In the Stockholm suburb of Blackeberg, Oskar (Kåre Hedebrant) is a lonely 12-year-old boy who is regularly bullied at school. A supernatural tale of horror and romance that deals with issues like bullying, murder and pedophilia, 'Låt Den Rätte Komma in' became a bestseller in its native country, and fortunately, it also became a new chance for the vampire to get into the big screen again. From dashing hero to atrocious monster, the vampire has taken many roles and symbols through its existence on modern fiction, and another proof of the fascination it has on us is 2004's Swedish novel, 'Låt Den Rätte Komma in' (literally, 'Let the Right One In'), by writer John Ajvide Lindqvis. After that, the vampire has been a constant theme that lurks in horror fiction, mainly because the attractive and interesting traits of the vampire figure make it very useful to deal with a wide variety of topics. 78 years later, Bram Stoker's highly influential novel, 'Dracula', would finish to integrate the vampire to modern culture. Ever since the publishing of John Polidori's 'The Vampyre' in 1819, the folkloric figure of the vampire, that mythical undead being who survives by drinking blood, entered the world of modern fiction.
