Salem's Lot

Jerusalem's Lot, Maine. After years of absence, successful novelist Ben Mears returns to his peaceful hometown, intent on writing a book on the notorious Marsten House: an age-old, rumour-filled residence perched on an allegedly haunted hilltop. But things have changed. Nowadays, two new tenants live in the gloomy house: uncannily taciturn newcomer Richard Straker and Kurt Barlow, his mysterious, always absent business partner. And as an alarming spate of unaccountable disappearances and violent attacks sends shivers down the spine, suspicion overcomes the worried townsfolk. As a result, people are quick to point the finger at newly arrived outsiders. After all, the town's monstrous curse is spreading. Now, with their lives hanging by a thread, Ben must brace himself up for the final confrontation between good and evil. In this strange, knotty case, who is behind the veil of terror shrouding the town?
