I was wondering if Count Dracula was going to be a part of this horror?

In an exploratory/ enrichment class I taught in Middle School- we spent 6-class sessions on Mr. Dracula.

This is another excellent addition to this awesome book. I have always been fascinated with this story and although I am certainly not an authority, I find it fascinating, informative, and although scary, a delight to read. Great work with this one.

I went back to get the feel again and try to read up to the newest as I lost my space.
I love the story line dwelling in the counts castle as you introduce the star.

Hi there,

Good solid imagery in this continuing haiku horror story. Interesting formatting with the change in colour and we now have the heroine(?) named.

All the best

Nice Haiku poem. Everyone loves the horror stories, especially about Dracula from Transylvania Romania. Love the haunted castle for your poem base. Very nice.

Hi GBR,
Vlad the impaler. What a horrible man. I watched a documentary on him once, it turned my stomach. I like what you are doing with Dean. it sounds great.
Keep writing.

An odd coincidence--I was just reading about Milk Thistle--not as "prickly" and often used for medicinal purposes. You captured the scene of the castle well, and I admired your parallel artwork selection and alliteration of "g's". Here's to continuing success with your joint project- Joan

Hi Gypsy,

It looks like you and Dean are doing a good job in writing a book together which must be fun. I have to be truthful though and say that this isn't my favorite kind of reading. Still, I will as I like both of you!!

A fine addition to the haiku horror collection. You would think that if the Japanese haikuist has been writing Death Haiku since the 17th century he would have finished by now. After all it is only 17 syllables like a syllable per century I suppose that draws out the horror.
