About This Book
The monsters aren't only in the museum!Despite a lifetime of traveling with their father to collect strange artifacts, twins Topaz and Opal Cushing have never fully believed in monsters or the supernatural. Oh, sure, they share an eerie psychic connection, and their tarot card readings often come true, but... Werewolves? Vampires? Living mummies? None of those could be real. Those legends are just for rubes. Right?Since the girls' father has been away, though, strange things have been happening in the family's little exhibit-and in the waxworks studio that shares their dilapidated Victorian mansion on the outskirts of London. Now, the twins' dreams of a fun, romantic summer season are turning into a nightmare, and the monsters are running...Dr. Cushing's Chamber of Horrors!Dr. Cushing is easily Sullivan's best creation to date! Mixing the roller-coaster thrills of the Universal monster rally films like House of Frankenstein with the moody sexiness of Hammer's 1960s gothic horrors, he throws in more monster fun than anyone has a right to expect! I'm ready for the sequel-now! - Rodney Barnett, film scholar and co-host of the NaschyCast horror podcastI just loved this eerie and fun offering with its Vincent Price-inspired wax museum and lots of old-time monsters creeping about in the shadows, from the Werewolf to the Mummy, and more. Sure to give you good shivers that'll keep you up all night! - C.A. Verstraete, author of the Lizzie Borden, Zombie Hunter series
