Named a Top Book of 2020 by the Montreal Times!
There is something strange happening in Placidville! It is 1962. Kathy Anderson, a serious actress who took her training at the Actor's Studio in New York, is stuck playing Vivacia, the vampire woman on Vivacia’s House of Horrors for a local Chicago TV station. Finally fed up showing old monster movies to creature feature fans, she quits and heads to New York and the fame and footlights of Broadway. She stops off to visit her parents and old friends in Placidville, the all-American, middle-class, blissfully normal Midwest small town she grew up in. But she finds things are strange in Placidville.
Kathy’s parents, her best friend from high school, the local druggist, even the Oberhausen twins are all acting curiously creepy, odiously odd, and wholly weird. Especially the town’s super geeky nerd, Gerald, who warns of dark days ahead. Has Kathy entered a zone in the twilight? Did she reach the limits that are outer? Has she fallen through a mirror that is black? Or is it just - just - politics as usual?
"This is the most horrible thing I've ever heard - and that's a good thing! It's screamingly funny and probably one of the best performed and produced audiobooks I've ever heard...and I have tinnitus." (Phil Proctor of the Firesign Theatre)
"Seamus Dever hits the tone just right - he's close to going over-the-top without ever slipping into parody. It's clearly funny material, but he plays it straight. Still, he sounds like he's having fun - and it's hard not to join in. And Juliana Dever nails the character of Kathy (and her alter ego).... Give this one a shot folks, I think you'll be glad you did." (H.C. Newton, The Irresponsible Reader Blog, five stars)
"Creature Feature is a fun fast-paced old-timey horror flick with plenty of humor. I enjoyed it for the one-line jokes, the crazy situations, and the odd the characters all tossed together in a completely unexpected situation. Kathy, who at times does come off as a vain self-involved woman, has her moments to shine as a woman of action. Meanwhile, Gerald's years as a science fiction lover and tech nerd have finally paid off - in the form of a supped-up Vespa! Haha! I love the imagery." (Dab of Darkness Book Reviews)
