Yesterday at the Pavor Manor a bloody murder took place, a murder that has a disturbing love story behind it.

Maria Jose Vargas Uribe August 1944

Yesterday at the Pavor Manor, famous playwright Clare Quilty was killed at gunpoint by a man under the name of Humbert Humbert, but the interesting and disturbing thing about this case is not the murder but the reason behind it. 

The newspaper interviewed Dolores Haze, a 17-year-old who was linked to this murder without even knowing it. In other words, she was the reason behind the death of Clare Quilty. When Dolores was 12 years old, Humbert married her mother, who later died, leaving Humbert as Dolores's legal guardian.  This is when things started to get unusual. According to Haze, Humbert started developing a love interest in her which later led to constant sexual abuse. As she explained at first she thought she loved him too, but eventually, when she reached 14 years of age, she realized the manipulative and abusive relationship she was in with a 47-year-old man acting like her father. 

That same year Haze and Humbert went on a trip, as she explains: “In that trip, I got sick ending up in a hospital. There I met Clare Quilty, who later kidnapped me. To be honest, I fell in love, up until he offered me to be part of a child pornography orgy.” After Haze refused to be part of this, Quilty kicked her out. 

As Haze explains, Humbert spent two years looking for her and when he found her, Dolores, or how he used to call her “Lolita”, was 17 and pregnant. Eventually, he got to know the pain Quilty caused her. Filled with rage, he killed Guilty at gunpoint in the name of love.
