Great deal on both books of the series. If you can find a copy of this book get it if you like horror and Richard Laymon. Also, if you can get an inexpensive copy of "Midnight's Lair" - a great book.
Recommended.

With the final completed book in the Beast House series--unless you count Saturday Night at the Beast House(released in the U.K.) as a true entry, this series has been good. The final book which is by far the longest and for me the least satisfying of the series. There seems to be way too much filler and I think some editing could have sped things up nicely. If you are reading this book, then you really don't need to have the house and monsters history again. The story itself is getting a little tired. With most of the monsters killed save for one at the end of the second book, the creatures really take a back seat in this story for the most part. You have the usual Laymon group of characters that come together at the end for the climax. The ending didn't seem satisfying enough for me. After 500 pages of reading, I really felt like something was missing. This was a good series, but this was certainly the weakest entry.

I can now say that I have finished the Beast House series. I have to admit, that in this third and final installment, Laymon's writing skill has increased. He is finally getting the idea of giving us some characters that we can possibly be interested in and showing us a little more of their background. Very few of the characters from his past two books reappear, but the ones that do are far more interesting to read about now then they were previously.
The plot has already been gone over in other reviews so here is a very short rundown.
Sandy and her "son" Eric have escaped and had to take a few lives to keep their own intact. Several years later the Beast House (now the property of Janice) is open for tours again. You can take the special Midnight Tour on Saturday Nights for $100 to get a full no-holds barred tour including the Attic and the Cellar. On the Midnight Tour you are given the true stories behind the Beast House. Unfortunately for this Midnight tour we have had terrible things leading up to it. Secret stalkers, crazy girlfriends, vampire wannabes, police officers disappearing. But all the beasts are dead, aren't they?
As in all of the other beast house books, we follow several characters until they all wind up at the beast house in the last 50 pages or so. This is where the book slips up. Rushing through the grand finale of the book with all of the build up... the payoff is lackluster and disappointing. I would have hoped for a grander more thrilling ending but instead everything comes out of nowhere, with no explanation. Aliens might as well have shown up and teleported off with the cast. The very first 400 pages are a decent read, but the ending is quite a let down.

This was pretty much a dumb idea. I kept hoping that it would get better.. but it never did.. It pains me to waste money on junk.. and that's what I did.. threw my money away.. Thanks alot Laymon..
