Brad Woods has performed a lot of autopsies, but never one like this. The body is purged of all blood. Fear has made Sue Wing run from the darkened school and into night, a fear so powerful she can only name it using the Cantonese myths of her grandmother: Cup-hu-girngsi, the corspe who drinks blood. Reporters like Rich Carter don't believe in the supernatural, but all the signs are pointing to the same conclusion: a vampire is stalking the streets of Rio Verde. No, Rich Carter doesn't believe in such things. Not yet.

Histoire3.5 out of 5 stars 6
The festival was intended as a getaway from UCLA for Gary, his girlfriend, Joan, and their friends. But soon after they arrive, Joan vanishes. Calls to her parents’ home yield only dead air. Her school records are gone. And there’s no evidence that Joan, or even her roommate, ever existed. Most disturbing of all is what they do find. Among Joan’s belongings is a prayer written on a small scroll. It’s a safeguard — and a warning — from something called The Outsiders. For Gary and his friends, it’s the only clue.

Considering she had just attended her mother's funeral, Gloria Jaymes never expected to see the woman again, but then her dead mom shows up at her house. Gloria's mom is...different. She's younger than when she died, dressed in clothes from the 1980s. And nobody else in Gloria's family seems to recognize her. As Gloria tries to figure out the reason for her mother's reappearance and the odd behaviors the woman begins to exhibit, other bizarre events occur. The changes to Gloria's world are small and subtle, at first...then they become much more startling.

In the small town of Montgomery, Arizona, Kyle Decker's book shop is barely breaking even. When a bank opens in the empty storefront next door, he hopes the new establishment will bring in more foot traffic. Trouble is, nobody has ever heard of the First People's Bank, and the local branch has appeared mysteriously overnight. Their incentives for new customers seem reasonable...at first. But is it a coincidence when Kyle's wife has her identity stolen and his son receives emails that seem to know his private thoughts? Or when the manager of a competing bank dies a gruesome death?

His father attacked her and has been committed to a mental asylum. The doctor says he’s suffering from dementia. But Steve’s father seems so calm, clear-eyed, and perfectly lucid.

In a small Arizona town, a man counts his blessings: a loving wife, two teenage daughters, and a job that allows him to work at home. Then "The Store" announces plans to open a local outlet, which will surely finish off the small downtown shops. His concerns grow when "The Store's" builders ignore all the town's zoning laws during its construction. Then dead animals are found on "The Store's" grounds. Inside, customers are hounded by obnoxious sales people, and strange products appear on the shelves.

After his divorce, Hunt Jackson decides to start over in Tucson, where an old buddy fixes him up with his wife's friend, Beth. The attraction is immediate, and they're married a few months later. But Hunt's happiness is marred by his bizarre encounter with an insurance agent whose insistence that Hunt increase his coverage sounds, incredibly, like a threat. The agent - tall, gaunt, oddly dressed in an old-fashioned suit and fedora - is himself a menacing figure.

The formerly laid-back principal has become unusually strict. And with her toadying secretary, she seems to be running the show. That isn’t all. The janitors no longer work nights because of what they hear. The students are frightened by what they see. And things are happening on school grounds that defy rational explanation. But there is an explanation. It’s just not anything that anyone can begin to believe — or hope to survive.

Description
Bram Stoker award-winner Bentley Little cordially invites you to The Resort.
Welcome to The Reata, an exclusive spa isolated in the Arizona desert. Please ignore the strange employees and that unspeakable thing in the pool. And when guests start disappearing, pretend it isn't happening. Enjoy your stay, and relax. Oh...and lock yourself in after dark.
Opulent doesn't begin to describe the Arizona getaway where Lowell Thurman, his wife Rachel, and their three young sons have come for one glorious week. Everything at The Reata is perfect - although Rachel is a bit unnerved by the openly lustful gaze of one of the gardeners, something she doesn't mention to Lowell. Nor does he tell her about the frightening sensation he has in the pool of hands clutching at him, trying to pull him under. After all, when you're in paradise, a few glitches shouldn't spoil the fun.
But the good times come to a screeching halt, when, to the Thurmans' horror, guests begin to disappear. What's happening at the resort? Evil, ancient, and cruel. And unless they can stop it, the Thurmans will be forced to sacrifice at its altar....
Explicit violence.

This was a fun read!
The author as usual builds up a sense of dread and unease, making day to day life seem more creepy than usual. And the ending actually wraps the story up sufficiently. Overall the book is not the kind I would re-read, rehash or gush about to my friends, thus a four star instead of five.

Very good haunted hotel book.
I enjoyed the Resort. I never found myself getting bored and many times I would walk my dogs longer so I could continue listening to the story. Its the usual Bentley Little story where crazy stuff starts to happen to normal people in what should be a normal location. There were some creepy parts and a few times I laughed out loud. I am a big fan of David Stifel. Hes an excellent narrator and he did not disappoint with his narration of the Resort. I definitely recommend this book to people who like horror and Stephen King fans.

Too strange
This is the 3rd Bentley Little book I’ve read and probably the last. There were too many loose ends (what happened to Patrick?, why all the horrendously graphic sexual activities and torture?, and what of the sick games?, etc.) How did any of this tie into the rejuvenation of the older resort?, etc.). What kind of person thinks up this stuff???
Prior books read The Mailman and The Store. This was very much like The Store — a lot of sexual stuff and people just going with the flow rather than fighting back.

dark humor
I've always considered Littles writing more dark ironic humor than horror, due to his pointed blasting of traditional institutions. the characters act so bizarrely that it has to be interpreted as outlandish humor.

Full of dark humor but too long winded...
The resort by Bentley Little was entertaining. The craziness of what these poor vacation-goers went though and the unbelievable things that they encountered and saw and were encouraged to do made me laugh out loud at times. This is dark humor folks. Like spontaneous abortion in the toilet next door dark humor. I enjoy some dark humor, so that didn't bother me at all. I mean, this story was just funny. Why didn't I give it five stars then? Well, to be totally honest, I had a difficult time getting through this novel. As much as I enjoyed the humor in it, it just went on and an and there were some parts that really dragged. For a thirteen hour book, that's rough. I think that there was a lot of stuff that could have been taken out to have made this novel really move along without taking away from the story at all. That being said, if you like Bentley Little and/or dark humor horror books, then I would definitely recommend this book. I wouldn't hesitate to listen to another Bentley Little novel if I had the chance to read some of the reviews to make sure that they didn't have tons of what I felt was extra filler in them.
David Stifel did a good job with narrating this story. I found his voice to be the perfect accompaniment for this wacky tale. I think they did a great job choosing him to perform this book and I would definitely listen to more performances by him. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher for an honest review.

A good read
You really never know what you're going to get when you read a book by Bentley little. Sometimes there is a Supernatural influence involved and sometimes it's just plain old bad guys. This time there was a hint of the supernatural but I don't think that's a spoiler because so many of his books take that approach.
I had a couple of issues near the end where I was hoping for one thing to happen and another thing happened instead but what can you do about that? It's the writer's choice to tell his or her own story the way he or she wants to tell it. But overall I have to say I really liked the story, the suspense, the unexpected twists, and the fact that I couldn't wait to get back in the car to listen to this book every day for a couple of weeks. Really enjoyable.

This book went no where!
There was no end to this book. You had a beginning and then a middle. It didn't really wrap up or anything. I really don't know what I just read. It really went no where., :-( I either love or hate Bentley Little's books. This ones was not my cup of tea. It was just more of the same chapter after chapter with literally no ending. I'll read Bentley Little again down the line, but this book could have been 6 hours long with an ending and could have been quite good.

This book is a horror novel. I thoroughly enjoyed the cast of characters. They twists and turns that go through the novel are great. I thought that the narrator was going to be boring but he was very suitable to the main character.

Overall very good
I do enjoy this author's writing. I guess I can't say too much without it being a spoiler but did *not* like the ending.
