I feel like everyone forgets that there was an actual sequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory where the elevator gets trapped up in space and the family and Wonka witness a bunch of deadly aliens attack another shuttle and said aliens eat at least twenty people and one of the grandmothers is erased from existence and Wonka and Charlie have to scramble to save her and in the end, they’re all invited to the White House to meet the president.

I read this as a kid and even then I was SO fucking confused.

Apparently there was gonna be a third book, entitled “Charlie in the White House” where Charlie and Willy Wonka arrive at the White House, and they most likely get into further fucked up shenanigans. Unfortunately, Dahl only managed to finish the first chapter, and I don’t know if he stopped working on it or not, but he never finished it. It’s a real shame, because I’d really love to see what sort of mindfuckery Dahl had in store.
