About this property

The vampire's den, downtown big house, pets ok

Once upon a midnight dark, a traveler sought a place,
A house known in whispers, at the city's silent pace.
Four bedrooms for dreaming, two baths to wash the day,
A formal dining hall, where secrets oft would sway.

The huge living room, with its shadows so profound,
Invited weary wanderers to rest, their tales unbound.
As the traveler approached, the door creaked open wide,
Revealing The Vampire's Den, where secrets dared to hide.

With each step, they ventured, into the hall's embrace,
A haunting feeling clung to them, a ghostly, chilling trace.
Paintings of the dining room, by candlelight aglow,
Told stories of nocturnal feasts, from a long time ago.

The traveler moved to the kitchen, modern, sleek, and sly,
And there, they found a feast of dreams, by moonlight in the sky.
Beyond the glass doors, the garden gleamed, a place of eerie calm,
Where shadows whispered secrets, beneath the moon's dark psalm.

In the bedrooms, obsidian charms, the night's essence did conspire,
As vampire-themed decor weaved tales of dark desire.
In the decadent bathrooms, secrets softly sighed,
Revealing their obscure beauty, where the midnight hour bide.

In the huge living room, shadows danced in the night,
A symphony of whispers, a curious, ghostly sight.
As the traveler settled in, beneath the moon's cold stare,
They knew they'd found a dwelling, where dreams became a dare.

In The Vampire's Den, where shadows deeply play,
A traveler's journey unfolds, as the night gave way.
To mysteries untold, in a house where darkness lay,
The tale of that traveler, in the night, they'll ever sway.

Great!

My adult kids and grandkids stayed here. Very central location and lots of “Easter eggs”. Had an absolutely great time. For out of towners, it’s a small town and quite a bit closes early.

Shayne is great! Top 5 places I’d recommend in the US.

Firstly, Shayne is an incredible host. He was responsive, considerate and you can tell how much effort went into this house! Secondly, I think Vampires Den is amazingly spot on! From the decor all throughout the house to the shower curtain, you felt like you were in Draculas house.

Fun, unique stay

We had a great stay in the vampire house. It was on theme throughout and the kids loved it. Shayne was a wonderful host. The neighborhood isn't great...it's on a really busy street without much around. But otherwise, wonderful and would stay again.

Incredible experience

The property was even cooler than advertised. This old house was updated in such an awesome way. The vampires are living good! We had a question upon arrival and the host/Dracula showed up in person before we could even message. What an unforgettable stay- mainly from hospitality of the host!

Arkansas Adventure

The house was decorated in a vampire theme. Our host even greeted us as a vampire. The kids really enjoyed the house. The location was perfect for the activities planned. We went to Eureka Springs to Turpentine Creek and the Diamond Mine. Fort Smith, Arkansas is an interesting place to visit with its colorful history.
