It's a hot August morning in 1963. All over the rural town of Grandville, tacked to power poles and trees, taped to store windows, flyers have appeared announcing the one-night-only performance of The Traveling Vampire Show. The promised highlight of the show is the gorgeous Valeria, the only living vampire in captivity.
"If you've missed Laymon, you've missed a treat." -Stephen King
For three local teenagers, two boys and a girl, this is a show they can't miss. Even though the flyers say no one under eighteen will be admitted, they're determined to find a way. What follows is a story of friendship and courage, temptation and terror, when three friends go where they shouldn't go, and find much more than they ever expected.
"If, like me, you consider Ray Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes an American classic, you are in for a real treat. This book will put you in the same vicarious world that no author has entered since the master." -Denver Rocky Mountain News
