The Keep is a limited series written by American author, F. Paul Wilson, and drawn by Matthew Dow Smith, published in 2005 by IDW Publishing.

It is based on Wilson's 1981 novel The Keep. In the foreword to this work, Wilson answers the question of exactly why he scripted a graphic novel version: "Because I consider this visual presentation of The Keep my version of the movie, what could have been...what should have been."

In 2021, a 40th anniversary edition of "The Keep" in graphic novel form was released.[1]

Plot summary[edit]

The Keep had stood empty in the Transylvanian Alps for some 500 years. No one knew who built it, or why. But on the eve of World War II, German soldiers moved in and awoke something—something hungry... something more merciless than the SS einsatzkommandos accompanying them.
