Book release & scary reading for children aged 10 and over
In collaboration with Karibu-Verlag
On a St. Martin's Eve in the forest of the small village of Buxstein an der Grippe, a procession of lanterns goes completely wrong. The procession has changed the centuries-old route of the lights, unaware that it has always kept a cruel ghostly ruler under lock and key. Only Emrah and Soro, who have been forced by their parents to go lantern-walking to accompany their little siblings, are able to escape the clutches of the Erl King and his ghostly entourage. Together with the headstrong Maya and the strange twins Joseph and Karlotta, they are the last chance for Buxstein
Inspired by Ottfried Preußler, the Goonies, a little John Carpenter and, last but not least, the Hessian homeland, BAMMEL is not only an action-packed adventure, but also full of ancient legends and urban (or village) myths.
With BAMMEL, Die drei ?? author Christopher Tauber (born in Frankfurt am Main) presents his first horror novel for children and young people aged 11 and over (and very brave 10-year-olds) at his favorite cinema in Frankfurt. Tauber is not an infrequent guest at the Harmonie, where he curates the monthly horror series Dis-Harmonie and the ÜberTrashungsNacht together with program planner Dimitrios Charistes.
Also on stage is illustrator Timo Grubing, who illustrated BAMMEL and will be drawing live on the big screen for the event.
After the reading, guests will have the chance to ask the creatives questions and purchase a double-signed book.
