Once there was a pastor who always gave terrifying sermons. He promised that sinners would burn in hell and, in his eyes, everyone had committed sufficient wrongs to deserve this punishment. Despite his impressive speeches, the pastor’s wife did not believe that everyone could be as bad as all that. When she died, the pastor was very sad. But one night, the dead woman’s ghost appeared and took him on an adventure that led him to question everything he had previously believed.
Anne Lisbeth was a beautiful young woman, but she gave birth to a repugnantly ugly child. That is why she gave it into the care of the wife of a man who worked in the fields.

Her own son was forced to grow up without her, without his mother: here are both their destinies.

Now that I am a student, I have my own apartment and sometimes Aunt Mille comes to visit. The other night, while she was sleeping in the next bedroom, I received a visit from another, much less pleasant, lady... Since then, I do not see Aunt Mille in the same way!
