Author’s movie premiere wish comes true

Universal Pictures will premier Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant – which is based on the Cirque du Freak series of books by Darren Shan – in the Omniplex Cinema, Dooradoyle, next Tuesday.

Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant is a fantasy-adventure about a teenager who unknowingly breaks a 200-year-old truce between two warring factions of vampires. Pulled into a fantastic life of misunderstood sideshow freaks and grotesque creatures of the night, one teen will vanish from the safety of a boring existence and fulfil his destiny in a place drawn from nightmares.
