About the Series

The Nocturne Falls book series is about the titular town and how it brings in many strange creatures. The town of Nocturne Falls is distinct in that it offers year-round celebrations of Halloween. While it might sound like at tourism gimmick, it is critical to the people who live there. The residents of the town include vampires, werewolves and witches among other creatures. They are living in the town as a means of protecting themselves as they know no one will be suspicious of them, what with Nocturne Falls being a place where Halloween is always in style.

The stories focus on individual people living in the town as they interact with each other. They highlight many points where people are looking for love and want to be appreciated for who they are. Every story has a different couple in it with each having its own problems to solve. The characters are especially diverse as they relate to all kinds of points in the world of fantastic creatures.

The series has even spun off into one other series that Painter has made. Jayne Frost, the daughter of Jack Frost, has gotten her own special series. This is a mystery series that involves her investigating many crimes and activities around Nocturne Falls alongside Garrett, a vampire. Some of the characters from other books appear but the series is primarily a standalone one.
