The monsters of Upton Arms are finally out of the coffin–literally–but the world isn’t quite ready to roll out the welcome mat. In this laugh-out-loud sequel to Upton Arms: A Retirement Home for Supernaturals, Vlad and his ragtag community of vampires, werewolves, zombies, and other aging oddities are navigating daylight, suspicious neighbors, and the many humiliations of modern living.
Just as the residents begin adjusting to life in the sun, a dangerous enemy resurfaces with a plan to erase the supernatural population for good. With trust in short supply and danger closing in, the residents of Upton Arms must band together with fellow outcasts to survive.
Their strategy? Bickering. Bonding. And occasionally biting someone who deserves it. Welcome back to Upton Arms, where immortality is complicated, community is everything, and retirement is a full-time supernatural adventure. Perfect for fans of cozy paranormals, humorous urban fantasy, found family stories, aging immortals, and monster-filled comedy with heart.

My Story
Scott Craven is a retired journalist who spent more than forty years telling the stories of others. He spends much of his time now telling his own stories, using the kind of
creative writing frowned upon when he worked for newspapers.
After enduring 37 years of scorching summers in the desert, Scott and his wife Melissa moved to a small town in Oregon, living in tiny homes with their three dogs. When Scott isn’t writing, he’s either reading, building Legos or enjoying the region’s craft beer.
