RE: My Picks for the PHC Top 3 Contest: Spooky Edition! {Or 3 Not-So-Eligible Bachelors 😈}
Great picks, @plantstoplanks.
I adore Stephen King... Too bad his latest work isn't all that scary anymore

My dad is a big King fan, so I think that's where my older sister and I found our love for his work. We still pass around books when one of us buys the latest. I would agree with you, though, a lot of the later stuff isn't quite as frightening. I think my favorite collection of stories was the Different Seasons book with Shawshank Redemption, The Body, The Breathing Method and Apt Pupil. Brilliant writing even if they weren't among the most chilling tales (although I think Apt Pupil ranks up there with its relationship to actual historical terrors against humanity).
