This humorous, outrageous spook story demands very elastic credibility as Nick Olsen, the total cynic, tackles vampires, poltergeists, werewolves and The Five Forces, all in the cause of true love and to impress Jayne, a somewhat gullible beauty, infatuated by Zak, local occult bore. There's an endearing ironic humour as Nick manages to make a rational explanation for each of his conquests over the supernatural. This should make a good, funny antidote to gothic horror.
