A Chemical Induced Dream

In my new book, Memories of Yuggoth there is a sequence when the hero breathes in a toxic gas and has a strange dream. The details of the location of a dream is from one of my own childhood memories and I had the opportunity to visit the location a few years ago.

When I was very young we lived in the appartement on the top floor. It has changed since, but very little. Before there was a green picket fence around the building, where we now see the grass. A green wooden staircase led up to the small veranda and we could access the appartement via that door. There was a guard rail of some kind around the veranda. Of course there was that ladder going up to the roof that I mention in the book.

The third window from the front was the window to the our bedroom. I would look out of that window at the hotel across the alley. We can still see the electrical powerline and I suppose there is still a purple insulator where it connects to the wall. In my memory, the line came from a pole at the front of the build (not from the back) - who knows?

I may have climbed the ladder but I was definitely never on the roof.
