The building across the street that this little girl is looking at was built in . The apartment block is located in the “Zaagpoortbuurt” (literally: ‘sawgate area’).

Marnixstraat is a main road between two famous squares (Leidseplein and Haarlemmerplein). The street has a mix of old and modern buildings, including some from the 19th century. A great deal of it used to be part of the old city walls.

I usually avoid posting pictures of people here, but here’s an exception—an anonymous photo of my daughter, taken in our old stairwell in 2017.

Lights and Shadows / Luci e Ombre
#spookysaturday

From your window you see the street lamp across the road is flickering. Bit weird. You've never seen it do that before. Wait... You see a figure. Is that a person? No. It's just the flickering. No, hold on, it is a person. They'll catch their death out there! It's so cold. Wait, those "Missing" posters around the neighbourhood for that kid - What if it's him? You have to go out and check. God, it's been days, he might be hurt! You walk briskly towards the street lamp. The air is freezing. You get closer "Hey! Are you okay?" "Hello! Do you need any help?". The figure turns towards you. Your blood runs colder than the air around you. It stares. It's not the missing kid. It's the reason he is missing. Oh God. How fast can you run? How fast can it run?
