Horror books
In the segment "Literatura com Luana Bernardes," Luana shares Halloween-themed reading recommendations for those who enjoy spine-chilling literature. She begins with Stephen King's classic horror novel "The Shining," which follows a family moving into an isolated hotel while the father serves as the winter caretaker. The story's eerie atmosphere is heightened by the son, Danny, who sees things that others cannot, leading to chilling secrets being unveiled. Luana also recommends "Frankenstein" by Mary Shelley, published in 1818. She clarifies that Frankenstein is the name of the creator, Victor Frankenstein, not the monster itself. The narrative presents two perspectives: Victor's anguish over creating a creature that is shunned by society, and the creature's desperate struggle for acceptance despite being different. Lastly, she suggests "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," published in 1886 by Irish author Robert Louis Stevenson. This novella explores the duality of human nature through Dr. Jekyll's experiment to separate the good and evil within himself, illustrating that everyone harbors both light and darkness.
