Still Privy To The Outside World
Elisabeth’s only link to the outside world, aside from her father, was a tiny television that was set up in one of the rooms. Although the cellar was completely stifling and suffocating, she had a bit of access to the world through that tiny screen. She did her best to teach her children some form of reading and writing, but it wasn’t much. She was able to watch adventure movies with her kids, and makeup tales of princesses and pirates, probably trying to lose a bit of herself in the fantasy as well. Unfortunately, her reality was left at the hands of an unbelievably sick man who was supposed to protect and support her, not rape and torture her.
