The Horror Masterpiece

Nosferatu- is a masterpiece for its time, it is one of the best silent fims of all time. It is a masterpiece. Without this movie, we couldnt have horror films today, without this movie, we couldnt have monster movies today, without this movie, horror movies wouldnt be the same. This movie waved and introduced monster movies, horror movies, scary movies, terrorfying movies, horrorfying movies and much more.

The Plot: In this highly influential silent horror film, the mysterious Count Orlok (Max Schreck) summons Thomas Hutter (Gustav von Wangenheim) to his remote Transylvanian castle in the mountains. The eerie Orlok seeks to buy a house near Hutter and his wife, Ellen (Greta Schroeder). After Orlok reveals his vampire nature, Hutter struggles to escape the castle, knowing that Ellen is in grave danger. Meanwhile Orlok's servant, Knock (Alexander Granach), prepares for his master to arrive at his new home.

Count Orlok- is mysterious, creepy, terrorfying, horrorfying and more. Without him we wouldnt have monsters/creatures in horror movies today.

I can go on and on, on how this movie is perfect and waved the horror films as a whole and gave horror its name.

If you havent seen this film or heard this film, i wouls highly reccordmend watching this film.

The Lost Heir ( crown of blood and frost book 1)
By CY Jones

I'm the daughter of a billionaire.
Queen of my private school, and now let's add fairy princess to the mix.
Crazy Right?
When the new hottie in town tells me that I’m his soul bound mate, that I’m in danger, and he’s taking me back to the other side of the veil, my first instinct is to tell him he’s insane.
Until I can’t deny the truth any longer.
A series of events has turned my life upside down, and my so called bound mate, may or may not have my best interest at heart.
He says he's the prince of another land, but I’m Winter DelaCorte, Queen of LA, and I bow to
no one.

A missing princess, a vampire prince, a fae king and a knight in shiny black feathers! What’s not to like? A young girl with a lot on her shoulders after her father goes missing presumably dead not only just became a billionaires but also a long lost princess with 3 bonded men! Story was interesting characters were likeable and no so likeable. Looking forward to seeing where it goes!

Handsome Death is a standalone paranormal romance. In a world where vampires, werewolves, and witches (to name just three) are known about and regulated. Ethan is a vampire mercenary, happy to be alone and lurking in the shadows. Tris is a human, with many friends and, although not so happy in the limelight, still doesn't want to be in the dark.

Although there are some sexy times from the start, this book is a slow-burner. It takes time for Ethan to realise that his obsession with Tris is more than just lust. We see Ethan change as his heart opens to Tris, and we see Tris change as his self-confidence grows. The way Tris stood up to his ex is one of the best scenes in the book, in my opinion.

With snark and humour and no unnecessary dramatics, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters are delightful and the world-building is just enough. I would love to return to this world and read some of the other characters' stories. Absolutely recommended by me.
