Notable: Spooked

These three new books cover creepy creatures real and imaginary. But which is which?

Dark Banquet: Blood and the Curious Lives of Blood-Feeding Creatures (Three Rivers) by Bill Schutt, illustrated by Patricia J. Wynne, investigates ghastly but fascinating real-life sanguivores such as leeches and candirus.

The Vampire Is Just Not That Into You (Scholastic) by Vlad Mezrich is an antidote for swoony Twilight addicts — a hilarious dating guide, complete with quizzes, playlists and decorating tips, for vampire fans "ages 12 to 1,200."

Twilight Zone: 19 Original Stories on the 50th Anniversary (Tor/Forge), edited by Carol Serling, collects spooky new stories in the spirit of the groundbreaking TV series, by Harlan Ellison, Whitley Strieber, R.L. Stine, Loren D. Estleman and more.
