Can a person's dreams answer questions that elude them in their waking hours? Can they lead you to the place, or person, where these questions will be answered? And do you really want those answers?

These questions seem to rule the life of Paul Stanford. Every since running from Dark Harbor, Maine, as a young man, he has never been able to stay in any one place, or have a long lasting relationship with anyone, because of his dreams. Dreams that seem to haunt him everywhere he goes.

But now, it was time to go back to Dark Harbor and face these dreams, and face the woman he left so many years ago, because of these dreams. He needs answers, but even more, he needs Jenny Gazio, the girl he left behind ten years ago.

Upon returning however, Paul finds much more than just answers to his questions. He finds evil. An evil that wants to consume Paul, and the entire town of Dark Harbor. An evil that crosses a century. Only Paul can stop it before it devours the entire town. And only he can save Jenny from this Demon that is determined to win. A Demon that is so evil that both he, and Jenny could very well lose the battle.

I have to admit that I am not a horror fan. Not one bit. But Howard Hopkins is a genus when it comes to writing this genre. He not only scares a person to death, but he can also hold ones attention so well that no matter how scared you are, you cannot look away from the pages. NIGHT DEMONS grabs your attention on page one. But at the same time the horror is woven around a wonderful story. A story that really keeps you guessing, and wondering, what will happen next. But like Paul, do you really want to know? And also like Paul, you just have to know.

I can rave enough about NIGHT DEMONS. It is such an absorbing story, and so horrifying at the same time. If you are a horror fan, NIGHT DEMONS will put all the others you have ever read on the back burner. If you are not a horror fan, you will become a Howard Hopkins horror fan immediately. I know, I have. NIGHT DEMONS is one book you just have to read. But do not read it without all the lights on, the doors locked, and the phone close by. Because you just never know.................the Demon may be very near by.

NIGHT DEMONS is truly gripping! I have to say that this is my favorite book to date by Mr. Hopkins. I'm a big Stephen King fan and I felt like I was reading one of Mr. Kings books right from page one and all the way to the end. From the very start of NIGHT DEMONS I felt the same excited anticipation that only Stephen King has been able to give me in a horror book.

Mr. Hopkins delighted me with his visual detail and his excellent way
with words. He has written a great book of horror and suspense and I loved every single minute of NIGHT DEMONS. I was so surprised and absolutely thrilled while I was reading, to find that Mr. Hopkins had surpassed himself. I didn't think it was possible.

If you love true horror, the kind that really creeps you out and won't
let you read without all the lights on, then you will absolutely love
NIGHT DEMONS! I haven't been this frightened by a book in quite a while and I loved it! Mr. Hopkins is a true master at scaring the socks off you. He sure didn't hold back his imagination while leading me through a hell of a terrifying ride. I've been an admirer of Mr. Hopkins work for quite a while, but now I consider myself one of his biggest fans. Grab NIGHT DEMONS if you sincerely want the scare of your life!

"Paul turned, about to get back into his car when something caught his attention. Again, the sense of dread crawled through him, the sense that something hidden was calling to him, though much weaker than before. His gaze seemed drawn to one of the boarded-up windows, to an uncovered dusty pane, as if the strange feelings were emanating from the glass. As he watched, Paul swore for an instant, a face, tenuous and childlike, appeared in the window. A boy's face. The remnants of a child's gleeful laugh seemed to echo from somewhere, nowhere, everywhere, as quickly dissolving in the wind. "Tommy..." Paul whispered...". What better way to let others know what an amazing writer Howard Hopkins is than with his own words? Mr. Hopkins captivates, no...captures his readers and takes them on a wild ride. You aren't an outsider looking into his stories, you are a part of them. The people and places are so believable and his discriptions make it so easy for them to spring to life. Whether it is Night Demons or any other of Mr. Hopkins' breathtaking reads, you won't be dissapointed!
