The scene that i will never forget was the child at window looking at his playmate waiting to be invited inside" with his pale color and white eyes cold skin....  - stephen king captured my attention here.

There is beauty in reading a book that you blindly choose because of the title. However I really thought this was a haunted story but to my suprise it is a vampire story.
My first stephen King book novel read aside from the first movie i watched back in the 80s with my parents " Pet Cemetery"

The story was about Ben Mears who settled at Salems lot infront of the Marsten house which was said to be haunted later on. A man bought the house and settled with it. And strange things happened on salem on town while a child was lost. Later on became a vampire and visited his playmate . Overall the town became vampire and salem became a Ghost Town. While others flee in the end Ben and Mark killed Barlow with a stake on his heart and Eva' s Bens girlfriend whom he met on his day at Salem. , while at sunrise and made a forest fire just to elimiate those
 who have turned into a vampire. The story was inspired by bram strokers Dracula and i think its already a show the will soon available .

Overall the story is all about the towns People that turned one by one into a vampire and the Marsten House was involved at Salem's Lot.
