The Landlady (A Roald Dahl Short Story)
by Roald Dahl
Sometimes you gotta take a break and read a short story.
For such a short tale this little story sure packs a punch. Billy Weaver is a 17 yr old who by the looks of it seems to have traveled to Bath for business purposes and now is tasked with the role of trying to find a place to spend the night. He ends up deciding to stay at this little B&B run by a seemingly cute little old lady. However it soon becomes apparent that something is not quite right with the house and it’s owner.
I’m not a huge horror fan, but this book and how subtle it is, really sends a shiver down your spine. If can also be seen as a cautionary tale to not judge things too fast, and that everything is not always what it seems.
