When entrepreneur Edward Henning builds a horror-based theme park deep in the heart of Transylvania, little does he realise that his new business partner is, in fact, a centuries-old vampire.

I’d like to preface this review by stating that I haven’t exactly reviewed many books, but when I got the chance to review this one I jumped at the chance as it sounded so entertaining. I mean just read that premise again, it sounds like so much fun! I’m going to give this my best shot, so, here we go.

I actually read this whole book in one sitting, this is something of a rarity for me as even though I am an avid reader, I usually like to spread stories out as to get more enjoyment out of them but with this one, I just couldn’t stop. This is down to our author Steve McElhenny and his amazing writing, his style is so enertaining and engaging that you just don’t want to stop. It’s blatantly obvious that McElhenny has a lot of love for the Horror genre, it screams out in his writing and as a reader it’s what you want.

The story has a group of characters that we’re all very familiar with, the likes of ‘Dracula’, ‘Frankenstein’, a certain hunchbacked servant and the like. With these characters and it’s premise it gives off a “Monster Squad” vibe to it, especially with the humour that McElhenny infuses into the story, and he pulls it off very successfully. You’ll find plenty of Horrorr references throughout which I absolutely loved and I know other fans will appreciate too.

If by now you’re thinking that it sounds just a bit too family friendly for your tastes then don’t worry, there’s plenty of descriptive gore featured here. With just over 300 pages the book doesn’t stretch itself out and even though you don’t want it to end when it does finish you’ll fing yourself grinning from ear to ear, even long after you put it down. If this book is anything to go by then I will certainly be looking to read more of what author Steve McElhenny has to offer.
