Everyone in the village of Badstein knows how to eliminate
the vampire preying on its young daughters: Find the coffin
he sleeps in during the day and drive a wooden stake through
his heart.
But how can you find you quarry if you don't know who he is
and your suspects are many.
There's a dark-complexioned Latour, given to wandering at
night and sleeping during the day. . . and handsome Baron
Meinster, supposedly traveling in the Orient but rumored to be
hiding in his ancient chateau. . . and the stranger, Professor
Van Helsing . . . it could be anyone.
Meanwhile, the victims multiply - all female, all young,
and all marked with the telltale sign of the vampire.
This is the first volume of "The NightMare Series" from
noted film historian and author, Philip J Riley. The purpose
of the series is to preserve the 50s and 60s Horror Film,
movie tie-in novels that are printed on old crumbling
pulp paper; to bring them in this new format for a new
century. These are the original novels by various authors,
not the scripts as in the editor's "Filmonster Series" and the
MagicImage Filmbook series.
