New Podcast: ‘Salem’s Lot by Stephen King
“What would happen if Dracula came to America today?” With that conversational inquiry Stephen King was inspired to write the novel ‘Salem’s Lot. King’s second published book, ‘Salem’s Lot was a bestseller, cementing King’s reputation among horror fans. The books’ success then translated to a television mini-series directed by Tobe Hooper.
‘Salem’s Lot is almost 40 years old but thanks to Twilight vampire fiction is more popular than ever. With all that has come in between, does King’s vampire story still have bite or does it just suck? Listen to Arnie’s review to find out as he analyzes the themes of King’s book and investigates how this plot resembles some of King’s other fiction.

All in this podcast continuing our Stephen King series!
