Outside of his carnival exhibit tent next to a life-sized poster representation, Dr. Caligari promoted his deadly somnambulist Cesare to a crowd of fairgoers:
Step rrright up. Presenting here for the first time. Cesare, the Somnambulist. The miraculous Cesare, twenty-three years old, he has slept for twenty-three years -- Continuously -- Day and Night. Right before your eyes, Cesare will awaken from his death-like trance. Step right in!
