In that play by him, two parents torture one of their sons at night while the other sleeps, so that the latter son will have disturbing nightmares that will improve his imagination.

This author wrote a play set in a dystopian state, in which detectives Ariel and Tupolski interrogate Katurin about the connection between his dark fairy tales and a series of child murders.
