Before you get excited, how about this for a thought: could people we love and think we know look like this on the inside? It's okay, calm down! You've had a Gothic moment! Feel better? Okay, good because here I go with another Gothic fiction post and this one is about my own fiction!
Madness (including suicide and murder, incest and sexual molestation), obsession, devil worship, vampirism, voyeurism and sadism...!

Hmm, did I leave out anything? Not too sure! These choice tidbits all comprise the themes of The House on Blackstone Moor. Is it too much? I don't think so. And do you know why I don't think so?
ANSWER: BECAUSE IT'S GOTHIC HORROR! Actually, it's Gothic horror with some romance in it.
I had one reviewer who freaked and said the romance didn't begin until half way into the novel...
Hey! IT'S NOT THAT SORT OF BOOK. The three novels that follow also don't qualify for the 'romance novel category.'
Actually, though, the fourth book in the series which will have its own blog post shortly, IS more of a romance, albeit a very, very dark one. Anyone love Coppola's Dracula? Well, there is a very good possibility that you will greatly enjoy my fourth novel in The Blackstone Vampires Series!
Oh, and by the way, that fourth one (next novel) is steamy and full of vampire erotica!

Back to my post, one character who is introduced in The House on Blackstone Moor is Eco, the demon spawn and vampire. Eco is a clever demon which has made him mad. He is filled with hatred for the hero (his immortal enemy, Louis Darton) and always has been. These two go back a long way together. You will discover exactly how they are related in Unholy Testament - The Beginnings.
So much happens in this novel that the succeeding novel in the series, Unholy Testament - Full Circle continues the story. As a matter of fact it answers all the secrets of the first novel, every hideous thing you wanted to know will be revealed! This, as you all must know by now, is on sale at Amazon!

This is the darkest of the three novels. There are two characters introduced at the end of the novel who are featured in the fourth. In both Unholy Testaments, the subject of good vs evil continues to be debated. These books, after all, contain the confession of Eco. Now, he's existed for eons of time and he's consistently been a very naughty boy. His confession makes for some shocking reading.
So why did he write it? He wrote it for love (he says). Well Eco purports to be in love with Rose Baines (The House on Blackstone Moor) and holds her captive with the child vampires, Ada and Simon. Eco is a true immortal and can easily, whenever the mood strikes him, slaughter Rose and the children.
There are a brace of characters in both of these novels that will surprise you. No, you'll have to find out for yourselves.
Eco is a demon. He calls Satan, Father Satan. He calls hell home. He wallows in his damnation. Gothic enough for you?
My fiction is different. I want it to be because it's what I feel. I hope you will come along on the journey because you never know where it will lead!

Begin at the beginning with The House on Blackstone Moor Then continue on with the next books in the Series: Unholy Testament - The Beginnings and Unholy Testament - Full Circle. I promise you, you will not be bored. In fact, I venture to say, you will be shocked, amused and amazed.
And if you love history you will be delighted. Nothing is off limits because this is horror I'm writing, and to make it even more fun, it is GOTHIC HORROR!
next week VAMPIRES!

Wow Carole, You definitely have me interested. I am very intrigued to discover your work. Vampire erotica - bring it on! A walk on the dark side - yep, bring in on! We can't appreciate one side without the other. Right? What book should I read first???
