Salem's Lot Movie Vs Book

Salem’s Lot written by American author Stephen King, is a horror novel that is about a writer named Ben Mears who is writing about the Marsten House, which is a house that he had a bad experience in as a child. He has returned home to face the fears of his childhood, only to come and find out that he has a new set of fears waiting upon him. Ben goes back to the town of Jerusalem’s Lot (or Salem’s Lot), which is located in Maine. He had lived in Maine from age 5 to age 9, so this town wasn’t new to him, but it has been awhile, he has returned when he was 25. He had realized something was oddly different this time back around. The residents are becoming vampires, and he knew something wasn’t right. After so much has gone wrong during his visit, he flies to Mexico to recover from the horrific trip. A year later, he returns once again, with a plan to destroy the Marsten house and the entire town once and for all. He had started a brush fire in the woods near the town of the residents, because there was way too many vampires to take out.

There’s 2 different versions, one was released in 2004 and directed by Jeffrey M. Hayes. The version made in 1979 which was directed by Tobe Hooper, and starred David Soul (an American-British actor) and James Mason (an English actor). Both the movie and the book are about the same thing, has the same story, but they do have their differences, whether they be major or small. Mostly every book and movie are not going to be 100% the exact same, for the reason being, when written, stories are told with more enthusiasm, emotion, and told much more deeply, rather than in movies, you might not get all of the details and feelings you do in the
