Traveling Vampire Show
Traveling Vampire Show | Richard Laymon
10 posts | 16 read | 21 to read
The rural town of Grandville is to host The Travelling Vampire Show, featuring the only known vampire in captivity. Janks Field, where the show will take place, has been declared off-limits because of its sinister history, but there are three local teenagers who don't want to miss the performance.

Mehso-so

I have read a few of Richard Laymon's books. Although the horny teen boys grow tiresome, his books are always a crazy ride. I had heard this called one of his best, so I decided to try it.

This book was not what I expected. I found myself getting bored with the lack of action, and lack of anything really scary. In fact, the last 10% of the book was the only interesting part for me. This was a disappointment.

kyraleseberg I just finished this and feel the same! So disappointing. 5y

A friend of mine recommended me Laymon years ago and he's been stuck on the TBR pile since, so I decided to give this one a go. Honestly, I was disappointed. I went in thinking it'll be like an adult verison of Darren Shan's Cirque Du Freak but what I got was more King's Stand By Me. A coming of age story. I kept waiting for something to happen and it didn't 🙈

Maybe listening to audio books while walking through a fog isn't a great idea. 😂

After a really hectic March with work, school, and a leaking gas pipeline I'm hoping everything is finally settling down.

I'm not that far into this (130 pgs) and I'm not sure where it is headed but so far so good

#horrorpost #currentlyreading

Reggie I‘ve read this one and The Island by Mr.Laymon and trust me when you say not sure where this one is going is absolutely correct. The endings are never what you think will happen or would happen. Lol, enjoy. 7y
MoniqueReads305 @Reggie Now, I'm excited. 7y

Reggie Richard Laymon endings are a little crazy. 7y
AllenTStClair @Reggie Very true. He freaks me out more than Stephen King. 😳 7y
ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled I‘ll need to check this out - always looking for super scary books! 7y
AllenTStClair @ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled Any Richard Laymon is usually a safe bet if you wanna be creeped out. But that‘s my favorite. 7y
