Product Description

Review
If you've missed Laymon, you've missed a treat

 

(Stephen King )

No one writes like Laymond an you're going to have a good time with anything he writes

 

(Dean Koontz )

A brilliant writer

 

(Sunday Express )

In Laymon's books, blood doesn't so much drip, drip as explode, splatter and coagulate

(Independent )

Product Description
Visitors flock to see the beast house with its blood-soaked corridors. But the worst part of the house is actually THE CELLAR... Bestselling author Gorman Hardy is looking for ideas for his next novel.  Tyler and her friend Nora are looking for a wild time. But in fact they find pain, bestiality and death in... THE BEAST HOUSE. Horrific events have made the Beast House infamous. For the full story, take THE MIDNIGHT TOUR. Saturday nights only. Limited to thirteen tourists. It begins on the stroke of midnight. You’ll be lucky to get out alive...

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing adventure awaits you when you pick up this book....., 19 Jul 2006
I cannot praise this book highly enough - it is comprised of the complete beast house trilogy (The Celler, The Beast House and The Midnight Tour) and for a full understanding and appreciation of 'The Beast House' and it's grizzly occupants they should be read in order. Each book gives you more info on said beast house and by the time you get to 'The Midnight Tour' you will be simply dying to see what goes on during the mysterious late-night foray into the infamous beast house where you will get more than you bargained for. I started this book (and it is a long one) and had it read in less than a week, it is simply unputdownable. Do bear in mind it is not for the faint hearted and coupled with Laymon's rich and descriptive prose you can easily visualise the lustful and savage beast. I must admit, I was so enthralled with this book, by the end of it I really wished the beast house was a real place because I wanted to visit it myself! The beast house tours get re-invented and updated each time another grizzly series of events occur until it reminded me of when I visited Muncaster Castle in the lake district, which was full of ghostly tales and touristy attractions. This is probably the best combined book I have ever read and it is up there with my favorites such as Body Rides and Midnights lair. I know a lot of people may find Laymons style a bit akin to a 'teenage horror flick' but I read for entertainment and not to be bored rigid enduring pages of waffle regarding the protagonist's child hood and boring life. Laymon gets straight to the action, the blood simply gushes and the characters are excellent in this book. Some you will like and some you will loathe and some will make you laugh. There is also quite a lot of sex scenes in this book and some which are quite disturbing but this is what makes the book so heart stoppingly chilling. It is a real tragedy that Mr. Laymon is no longer with us but I am glad to see they are now re-publishing his books in volumes and he will finally get the credit he deserves. Never mind Stephen King books- give me a good Richard Laymon gore fest any day!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beast House rules!!, 7 Mar 2006
He may not be the thinking man's horror writer but what he lacks in confusing plot twists he makes up for in action packed blood and gore, best shown in this brilliant trilogy. I have been a Richard Laymon fan since I was 14 and although graphic, the man still manages to make you think of your own scenario in the book. The Beast House Trilogy is some of his best work, full of his usual sick imagination, but different from his other books in that he manages to keep at least one main character throughout, who just for a change isn't out to get anyone. I dare anyone who buys this book to read it alone (trust me there is nothing scarier than imagining a huge, overly proportioned, albino yeti coming to get you!! Unless that is your scared of old women.....in any case be prepared to be terrified.

5.0 out of 5 stars beast is best!, 24 Jul 2006
I've read alot of laymon's books & when the collection came out I bought this as I hadn't read any of the "beast books." In my opinion this set of stories is some of the best of Laymon's.I went on about the beasts so much that my mum had to borrow it & now she's hooked as well! This book comes highly recommended, you will soon be wondering if the beasts are real!!!
