Hallowe'en Countdown: Top Spooky Books #4!

Hallowe'en is right around the corner -- and to help you get in the mood, over the next few days Curious Comics will be counting down the Top 5 Spooky Books to help you make this October as creepy as possible!

Top Hallowe'en Books #4: Vampire Loves

Love isn't any easier when you're dead. Meet Ferdinand, a vampire who bites his victims with only one tooth in order to pass as a mosquito, who loves the music of dead folk singers, and who has no end of trouble trying to make sense of his relationships, some living, some not.

Vampire Loves follows the strangely romantic adventures of Ferdinand and his friends as they flirt with, seduce, cheat on, break up, and make up with all manner of unearthly creatures including ghosts, other vampires, tree-folk and the occasional golem.

Filled with the trademark Joann Sfar blend of tenderness, comedy, melancholy, and philosophy, the stories in Vampire Loves are guaranteed to make you a fan.
