====//Mr Lockwood, who is Mr Heathcliff' s new tenant and neighbour, visits Heathcliff at his house. There, he also meets an old man, named Joseph, a young boy and Mrs Heathcliff. He still doesn' t know the relation among these people. He just supposes. But nobody looks happy with Mr Lockwood's arrival, not even the dogs of the house! He observes something strange and suspicious to their behaviour and life. Mr Lockwood does not expect such an unpleasant and rough welcome! He is wondering what wrong he might have done and what is happening there. Unfortunately, he gets no answers during his visit.//==== ====//As it is time to return at his house, he notices that it is snowing heavily and it is tough for him to find the path to go back. The snow has not stopped falling yet and, as a consequence, Mr Lockwood spends his night there. The servant of the house offers him a room to sleep. Mr Lockwood feels that this room hides a mystery. In spite of that, he falls asleep. He has an absolutely uncomfortable night. In his dream, which is undoubtedly a nightmare, he dreams of a girl called Catherine Linton. The girl storms into the room and grabs his arm screaming. He cannot sleep anymore..//==== ====//The sun rises and Mr Lockwood returns to his house at Thrushcross Grange. He is wondering after that if he has finally chosen the correct house for him. There is Mrs Dean, who has lived at Mr Heathcliff' s house for some time, and is the appropriate person to give some answers to Mr Lockwood. He is now ready to hear a story by Mrs Dean. A very interesting story, as it unfolds little by little. . .//====
