This game is sure to get a lot of responses from you. The rules are still the same, one book per post. BTW, since he often uses the pseudonym Richard Bachman, those books count as well. I'll start with his creepiest book, IMHO:
It

The Stand - bigger than a phonebook and far scarier.

I just saw in the paper tonight that the local theatre group was doing that as a play. Apparently it's "for mature aduiences only" and even includes gore :/ Haven't been to too many plays, but the idea of gore on stage just sounds odd^^ Never read the book though so *shrugs*

According to Shakespeare in Love, when Juliet was "killed" on stage, "she" (I'm using quotes because only men could be in plays in those days) just had a red silk ribbon next to her breast and just pulled it out in order to simulate the blood.

Hmmm... my teacher DID say once that she went to one play and it was a gorry version of King Lear :/ They actually used "guts" and stuff on stage :/


...aaaand back on topic. Shawshank Redemption (didn't know it was Stephen King either until later on :/)
