A fun read, especially if you are a fan of horror movies. The plot is completely derivative and mixes numerous story threads and scenes (I think deliberately) from famous books and movies. I found it fun to "name the movie or book" as each scene transpired. There really isn't anything original here, and West keeps the story light, but I still enjoyed it because I could sense that the writer has a deep affection for the movies that I have enjoyed over the years.

This was a pretty good read with some great action and likeable characters. The story reminds me a great deal of the King of Horror…Stephen king’s classics such as [Children of the Corn] and one of my all time King favorites…[Pet Sematary] If you like Stephen King or H.P. Lovecraft's old gods fiction – mythology…if you read Halloween themed scares… you'll like this book.

not as scary as I'd hoped

This book was an interesting read. It was slow to get to the action but entertaining in the lead up. The author splits the story mainly between the perspectives of two characters and then brings it all together in the action. There is some jaw dropping language in the last few pages to be aware of that took me quite by surprise. If you do not like cursing then definitely avoid this one. The rest of the book is clean but where it gets nasty it is no holds barred.
