The Landlady




Base on the short story The Landlady by Roald Dahl, As the story, opens with Billy Weaver who has traveled alone from London to Bath for a work assignment. And the story begins with Billy and Landlady when they meet each other in the old lady's house. From the story, we can simply assume that the Landlady character more likely as a person with mental illness who interest in killing and stuffed humans and animals. For example, as the writer illustrates in the story she has stuffed dead bird and dog even human in her house.

In particularly why the Landlady acted as the storyline of this short story, Firstly we could say that the old lady is interested in horror and thriller action as murder or killing and keeping the body of the victim for fun with a freak hobby. Furthermore, she lives with no one around that could lead her to this kind of unacceptable acted that she does. Hence she absolutely in poor mental illness which no normal human being will acting like how "The Landlady" described in this short story.
