Horror for Newbies
A Goodreads user asked this question about Something Wicked This Way Comes:
Does Dandelion Wine have anything to do with the story in this? Should I read it first?

Something Wicked This Way Comes has much to do with life, laughter and love. Dandelion Wine has the ravine, the Lonely One... both are EXCELLENT reading, neither have anything to do with the other, really, just both set in little, long-ago midwest towns.
The stories and characters are NOT directly connected, and they are completely different books, not sequels or prequels. Doug is the main character in Dandelion Wine. The father, Will and Jim are the main characters in Something Wicked This Way Comes, along with some terrific villains and lost townspeople. (less)
