Have a friend who found out I’d never read Salem’s Lot and she could not handle it, donated a copy to me. So I gave it a go. Bruh, there is nothing on this earth that could make vampire stories scary to me. We live in at a time in history where The Vampire is not serious. I have much respect for this book as an artifact and I’m sure it slapped in 1975. I love Stephen King writing about literally anything else but vampires.
