BookBub did a blog about what they think are the 17 best vampire books/series (website). I was surprised by how many I've actually read.
2. Spookiest novel: ‘Salem’s Lot by Stephen King

Ben Mears has returned to Jerusalem’s Lot in the hopes that living in an old mansion, long the subject of town lore, will help him cast out his own devils and provide inspiration for his new book. But when two young boys venture into the woods and only one comes out alive, Mears begins to realize that there may be something sinister at work and that his hometown is under siege by forces of darkness far beyond his control.












Art Love
We love Charlie Brown and anything Peanuts around here (cannot wait for the movie next month). Raid 71 has prints of Charlie Brown dressed as Indiana Jones. Prints can be bought on bottleneck gallery here

Q. What book do you think would make a great Halloween movie? Please explain in graphic detail of goriness…

A. I'm going with two and one already is a movie. My most recent read that would fit this is

Anna Dressed in Blood 

One of y favorite books in high school was Needful Things by Stephen King. Some scenes in the book and movie gave me nightmares.
