“Местная печать пишет о процессе постоянно. Казалось бы, публика должна ломиться в двери. Нет, не ломится. Те же газеты сообщили о прибытии в Ростов «единственного и мире русско-канадского театра ужасов „Вампир“. В большом шоу-представлении: оборотни, химеры, монстры, зомби, упыри и прочая нечисть в супертриллере „Кошмары в преисподней“. Кино- и фотосъемки запрещены». И можно не сомневаться, сей супертриллер собрал свою публику. А тут реальный, невыдуманный вампир. Какое канадское шоу с этим сравнится!
Может быть, людям, пережившим столько социальных и экономических потрясений, не до чужих трагедий? Может быть. Вот уж воистину бессмертный лозунг – хлеба и зрелищ! Колбасы и триллеров!
И к черту все остальное.”
