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.
