The Haunting of Lolita
An interactive PDF that I called ‘The Haunting of Lolita.’ It is a click-through experience of found imagery that tells the story of a young girl that ends up in an abusive situation with her biology teacher. This relationship was brought on by the emotions and thought process she has after her father abandons her family.
She is preyed on by her biology teacher that I have called Mr. Hum; a reference to Humbert Humbert in Lolita. He convinces the teen that her attraction is perfectly normal and is just a part of natural biology. By this logic they are meant to be together. She is driven away from her mother by her own frustrations and his influence. The horrors lie in the fact that as the adult Mr. Hum takes advantage of her hurt self esteem and yearning for her father’s love and acceptance to satisfy his hebephilia. It becomes even more disturbing with the real life examples I have found on the internet written by adult men.
