Summary

The final horror masterpiece from the author of Dracula.   At the bottom of a hidden well, a green light gleams. In the sky, a kite drives a man to madness. An unsuspecting traveler seeks to connect with long lost family.    All the while, the White Worm lurks… waiting, watching, hunting.   From Bram Stoker, author of Dracula, and published only a year before his death, The Lair of the White Worm was heavily abridged and republished in 1925, leaving readers and critics alike dissatisfied and disappointed. Return now to the original, restored version of the text and explore the world of mesmerism and mystery as Bram Stoker intended.    Includes a new foreword by award-winning author Fran Wilde.
Available since: 06/07/2022.
Print length: 259 pages.

    Ascend the creaking stairs of an old manor, each step stirring echoes of long-buried tragedies and whispered regrets.
    
     
    Meet the tormented voices trapped in the attic’s shadows—lost children’s giggles that curdle into sobs, soft lullabies warped by grief.
    
     
    Piece together fragmented memories hidden in faded journals, torn photographs, and the faint scent of forgotten lavender.
    
     
    Feel the attic’s floorboards shift beneath you as unseen hands guide you toward a truth more chilling than the cold night air.
    
    
     
    Narrated with a tense, spectral cadence and woven with subtle sound design—from distant scratching in the walls to sudden, breath-stealing silences—Specters in the Attic invites you to confront the spirits that refuse to rest. Press play…and dare to listen when the boards creak above you.

    The Era of Nighttime Has Begun... 
    Forty years have passed since the end of the vampire/human war. Vampires have taken over the planet and have settled in, making themselves comfortable in the infrastructure their predecessors built, with just a few adjustments to ensure a permanent night. 
    Humans still exist, tightly controlled, because the alpha species needs to eat. But even after four decades of peace, Reginald can't shake his conviction that the war never really ended — that the archive he still holds in his blood warns of an ominous change on the horizon. 
    As old foes rise, the power structures of both races begin to falter and the very existence of life on Earth (both hot-blooded and undead) hangs in the balance. Rebel humans have developed new and frightening weapons, and they aren't afraid to use them even if it could mean the end of everything. And Reginald Baskin — always an outcast, always neglected — may be the only chance to stop it.
