'Salem's Lot (Package May Vary)

"The Town Knew Darkness... It Knew Evil." – ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ’Salem’s Lot is the perfect book for fall—an eerie, slow-burning horror story that captures the creeping dread of a town consumed by something sinister. Stephen King takes classic vampire lore and gives it a modern twist, blending supernatural horror with small-town mystery in a way that makes everything feel unsettlingly real. I loved the gradual unraveling of the town’s secrets, the sense of isolation, and the way the mystery built over time. The atmosphere is thick with tension, making it the perfect read for crisp autumn nights. While it starts off a bit slow, the payoff is worth it. ’Salem’s Lot is a haunting, chilling vampire tale that lingers long after the last page.

It was my first experience with horror books and my second Stephen King book. I'm already starting a little collection, he is a great storyteller.

What a ride of a book. Taking modern values on classics problems always intrigues me! The epic struggle, and existential dread, of good versus evil is so well struck home in this book. I loved it!

Love a god vampire movie and Salems lot did not disappoint.

I liked King’s style of writing and will probably read more of his stuff but this took a while for me to get into and I don’t think I could have finished itwithout the audiobook!
