Lix: 18"Synes du egentlig, det er i orden?" siger Freja, mens vi ser de sidste sekunder af den korte video med klovnen."Hvad mener du?" svarer Noah. "Han laver en offentlig optræden. Så må man gerne filme.""Det er vel rigtigt nok," siger jeg og trækker på skuldrene. Også selvom det ikke føles rigtigt. Jeg ved ikke, hvordan den slags fungerer. Jeg er kun på TikTok for at se andres videoer."Folk griner af det i et par dage, så er det glemt." Noah siger det megaafslappet, mens han trykker upload. "Det sørger algoritmen for. Klovnen Tubby overlever sgu nok nogle grinende teens. Han har sikkert prøvet noget værre. Han er en klovn jo.""Jeg ved ikke," siger Sebbe så, næsten uhørligt. "Der var sgu noget ved ham. Han var lidt creepy, ikke?"

Over balsalen kæmpede det røde gardin for at rive sig løs og flyve væk med vinden. Bastian gispede. Et kort sekund lignede det, at stoffet tog form som Grevindens ansigt, der med hugtænder og spiddende øjne så lige ned på ham. En murer falder ned fra sit stillads, en sangerinde mister stemmen og vinduerne på Højvig slot springer i stykker og bader gårdspladsen i en regn af glasskår. Bastians fatti mener, at Højvig Slot er ramt af sort uheld. Bastian ved bedre. Det er Grevinden, der er på spil. Heldigvis vogter de levende døde på kirkegården over Grevindens trumfkort: hendes farlige og ældgamle bog fuld af besværgelser. Får hun først fat på den, vil ingen i Højvig kunne vide sig sikker. Problemet er bare, at Bastian også har brug for at få fingrene i den bog - og det er måske den chance, som Grevinden har ventet på. Andet bind i serien om Bastian.

It's all very simple really. Except Borborygm has it. 'I devoured War and Peace but this is so much better. Shorter too.'
