Actually, I'm going to save the LTROI-tourist thing for a spread in the photobook about Blackeberg we're doing. We're editing now and hope the book will be ready and printed well before the end of 2010.

Maybe with the popularity of the novel (now in Taiwan) and the release of LMI which I would say renew interest in the novel and also the original film, acolytes might be flocking to Blackberg.
Låt den rätte komma in in both its printed and celluloid form is a slow acting poison. You will be poisoned white. White from arsenic and innocence.

Thanks for posting this Drakkar. :) A reference for future vampire tourists?

I'll break open the story and tell you what is there. Then, like the others that have fallen out onto the sand, I will finish with it, and the wind will take it away.

Gattoparde, I noticed the Vattenfall building somehow was left out from the location pictures.
Now, at last here it is:
"Next station Råcksta"
It was a little softer and rounder than those places.
Although, here was a real skyscraper.
He arched his neck to see the top floors of the Vattenfall building.

And five minutes walk from the subway station and skyscraper we have this location :D :

It should exist some footage and pictures from Tyresta? Covenant went there. He even expended his mobile phone there. :(
