Final Rating: 3.0

Short and sweet. Adds nothing to the Salem’s Lot plot, apart from the fact that the vampires are still alive. Questionable, low IQ choices are made for the sake of the story….

Part of illustrated edition of ‘Salem's Lot and a sequel happening few years after the main novel. Not bad, more atmospheric than the novel but then... keep in mind I don't like the novel. It's also part of Night Shift collection.
