If you are a big fan of the Monster Fighter series you will definitely want to purchase this set. The playability factor, variety of pieces, and six minifigures are all a great unified collaboration. However, the new Haunted House drives a hard bargain and provides just as many great elements if not more! Thankfully I was not driven to choose between the two sets, as the Haunted House was not out when I purchased the Vampyre Castle alongside The Werewolf and The Zombies. Considering this is a $100 set it is well worth the buy, and I would buy it again even if I did not have the BrickFair promotion.

This is one of my favourite Lego castles... that's saying something. (I have all the Castle line castles.) Obviously this one wouldn't be great for defending against a horde of knights, but it's got stacks of character. Highly recommended set for build, display & play functions.
