Description
Sometimes horror is in the mind and sometimes it's real. Telling the difference isn't always easy.
It wasn't for Joe Creed. He just photographed the unreal. Now he had to pay the price, because
he always thought that demons were just a joke. But the joke was on him and it wasn't very
funny. It was deadly.
Insightful reviews
M.t: This book may not be the scariest, most shocking or creepiest novel I have ever read. It is,
however, by far the funniest horror story I have ever read. Joe Creed is a despicable, arrogant,
womanizing, underdog hero. He unwittingly gets in way over his head into a terror filled
nightmare that will both amuse and stupefy the reader. Highly recommended.
Trisha: Bij de begrafenis van een beroemde Hollywood-ster is ook Joseph Creed aanwezig.
Joseph is foto-journalist. Dag en nacht ligt hij op de loer om sensationele plaatjes te schieten.
Creed mag dan een fotograferende aasgier zijn, hij is goed in zijn vak. Hij aarzelt dan ook geen
moment om na de begrafenis met zijn camera een vreemde man te betrappen die op ziekelijke
wijze het verse graf schendt. Creed is razend benieuwd naar de identiteit van deze persoon,
want hij lijkt sprekend op de beruchte kindermoordenaar die tientallen jaren geleden werd
opgehangen...
Korte tijd later wenst Creed dat hij nooit aan zijn speurtocht naar de onbekende grafschenner
was begonnen. Tot bloedens toe verwond, verbijsterd en doodsbang moet Creed erkennen dat
duistere krachten van zijn geest bezit hebben genomen. Creed kan geen weerstand bieden aan
hun lage, dierlijke verlangens.
Maar de demonen zijn vermoeid. De eeuwen en het kwaad dat zij hebben gesticht hebben hun
tol geëist. Zij zijn moe, en kwaad op Creed, gruwelijk kwaad...
--Omdat ik, toen ik het boek las, nog geen (echte) beoordelingen en mening gaf over boeken is
het voor mij niet mogelijk om nu een juiste waardering aan het boek te geven. Ik hoop in de
aankomende jaren tijd te vinden om oude boeken weer op te pakken om opnieuw te lezen,
zodat ik ook deze boeken een juiste waardering kan geven.

PLOT..
Joseph Creed aka Creed is a die hard paparazzo, works as freelance photographer for a tabloid
named The Daily Dispatch. He is waiting for a photograph that will make him a world famous
photographer, something like Vietnamese kids fleeing from bomb attack, a burning Buddhist, or
Jack Ruby gunning down Lee Harvey Oswald.
One day he photographs the burial of a famous yesteryear actress Lily Neverless, after buriel
was over..all celebrates long gone, he finds a madman committing an act of gross indecency
(masturbating) at her graveside and our hero, Joe Creed also shoots the scene and the mad
man with his Nikon cam., thatz all, all hell breaks loose.
Joe photographed something the unreal. Now he had to pay the price. His house was invaded
by the very same mad man he photographed at the graveside. He sees impossible things, his
bed full of spiders making a meal of Joe's blood, Dracula watching him through his 3rd floor
window that couldn't be possibly reached, The toilet bowl flexing into a tooth edged porcelain
mouth and spitting at him. He can't understand what is real? Is he really seeing things or just
hallucinating?
With the madman's pictures as the source he begins to dig the past. Through his tabloid
sources and with the help of an unknown and mysterious girl Cally he understands that the mad
man is an dangerous child murderer named Nicholas Mallik hanged and executed in the late
30's before the outbreak of the Ist World War.
If so, how he came alive? Was he really hanged to death or escaped from the execution? What
about Joe's unbelievable visions? Are they real or mere hallucinations? Who is this girl Cally,
and why She is following Joe? Forms the rest of the story...
My comment..
Though the novel starts interestingly, ending is a complete let down. Itz like watching B grade
horror movie with lot of questions and puzzles remains unanswered, unsolved and only
confusion remains...
Bandit: i am a massive fan of the past due nice James Herbert and this used to be certainly one
in every of his best. For one thing, Creed showcases Herbert's writing so well, it is a lighter
publication than his norm when it comes to horror, however it has all of the signature Herbert's
strengths, good constructed backstory, attention-grabbing (if no longer fairly likable or routinely
good)characters, action, intercourse that is truly plot driven, humor (this booklet in particular)
and a boombastic finale. Creed isn't a regular hero, now not a her in any respect actually, he
appears like a preworked on (mercy there)Mickey Rourke, makes a dwelling as a paparazzo
and is a little bit of a scoundrel in general. sooner or later he is taking a photograph he do not
need taken of an individual who could not potentially be and his complete international starts to
unravel. From there on it is all demons, cemeteries at night, darkish spooky (as if there are
different kinds) dungeons, harmful ladies, menacing creeps, events with a solid of common
Monsters and flash photography. Seriously, all that. Herbert narrates this publication in a sly
smart funny let's let you know a narrative type of approach that actually works right here and
makes the analyzing event lots fun. Very wonderful and stress-free read. hugely recommended.
James Parsons: not likely your anticipated commonplace Herbert horror novel, it got here at a
transformation in his course of style. prior to the very gothic tales, after the quite photo horror
terrors. It did take a good whereas to truly get going, yet finally it was once unique generally due
to a sleazy anti-hero lead character. virtually is going right into a vintage Dennis Wheatley story
towards the grand ultimate chapters.
Ubiquitousbastard: Like a lot of James Herbert, only a tad too heavy at the sex. sufficient that it
dropped a celeb with me. Well, that and the truth that the booklet appeared to get slower
because it went on. I mean, i admire a brief start, yet I additionally just like the writer to a
minimum of attempt to hold it up, or what is the point? the shortcoming of personality
improvement was once form of a enjoyable idea, really I beloved the full concept; it is the
execution that used to be lacking.
