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

Once upon a midnight dreary, in my quest for lodging, weary,
I stumbled upon a house, peculiar and eerie,
With ebony floors that creaked and croaked,
A grand old clock that tick-tocked and joked.

Four bedrooms, where the bizarre did dwell,
A dining room with tales to tell,
A kitchen that conjured culinary spells,
Two bathrooms, where the ordinary rebelled.

Pet friendly, (no werewolfs), balcony and front porch, washer and dryer.

We invite you inside to share a bite of vampiric fantasy. This home has stood for generations in the downtown Fort Smith area and you can be a part of that legacy.

The Large bay window in the bridal chamber is the perfect perch to watch the victims, I mean people pass by.

The giant dinner chamber will provide ample room for the entire coven to bond over a warm meal.

The young can teeth on the bunnies in our forest room.

perhaps the Victorian era calls to some sense of nostalgia for some. this room features a second story balcony with a park view.

the kitchen is perfectly suited for the preparation of any delights or indulgence.

we welcome you to our little paradise.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!
