Stephen King is the master of writing disturbing moments that continue to scare years later, including those that terrified me when I read them. Many of his works have become staples of the horror genre between the original source material and the many movie and television series adaptations that came later. Stephen King’s books tap into the universal fear of the unknown as he builds an unparalleled sense of suspense and dread. This buildup pays off with supernatural and real-world horrors that range from the demonic entity known as It to abusive parents.
