Let The Old Dreams Die

Let The Old Dreams Die is a short story which acts as an epilogue to Let The Right One In. It is the title story of the short story collection "Let The Old Dreams Die".

Lindqvist wrote a short story titled Låt de gamla drömmarna dö ("Let the Old Dreams Die") following what happened to Oskar and Eli after they got off on the train. He wrote it to clarify his intentions with the characters in response to the interpretations that Eli was only preparing Oskar to be his helper all along. In it, a photo from 2008 is found showing Oskar and Eli in Barcelona, and neither appears to have aged a day, implying that Oskar too has become a vampire and that he and Eli remain a couple.
