Catch-up day! #stephenking17
Left: #day4 #scaredyou The ending to this though. What got me was the inevitability of something so horrifying.
Right: #day5 #bookyouwantobein I think this is a safe bet. I also like fairs.
Top: #day6 #favfemalecharacter I chose Alice from Cell because I read this book when I was a teenager and really identified with her character. This is a screenshot of the movie version which was a decent adaptation imo.

I've never read It, and the only part of the movie I've seen is when Pennywise comes up through the shower drain. At age 10, that small glimpse of film led me to boycotting showers for over a week. I only started showering again when my hatred of the bathtub overcame my fear of the shower. #ScaredYou #StephenKing17

Pet Sematary | Stephen King

#ScaredYou I've gotten a lot of scares from different King novels, but if I had to pick one I would say Pet Sematary. This book gives me nervous shivers and goose flesh every time I read it. It probably doesn't help that I do most of my reading at night or when I'm home alone. 🙂😱 #StephenKing17

#stephenking17 Day 4 Since I used IT yesterday and I don't want to repeat myself already, I'm going to step away from King (but stay in the family 😉) for this one. I loved NOS4A2. Charlie Manx is probably scary to me in a similar way to Pennywise. #scaredme #scaredyou

Josie Manx gave me nightmares. I loved this book and I am on the hunt for a hard copy. 7y
Bookzombie @Josie Me too! Of course, I read this right before bed a lot. Not so smart of me. 7y
Gayan I have a First Edition and I plan on leaving it to @Josie 7y

Josie @Bookzombie @gayan SHUT UP ARE YOU 4 REALZ? I'm having heart palpitations over here. 7y
Gayan @Josie Of course. You are the only one who can appreciate it the way it deserves. 7y

I remember reading this in the 9th grade. Having empathy for someone's physical pain completely FREAKS ME OUT!!! #StephenKing17 #scaredyou

Josie UM that framed picture of King is EVERYTHING 🙌🏻 7y
Gayan I agree, EVERYTHING! 7y
NatalieR @Josie @Gayan Thanks! ❤ 7y

I had to deviate a little for #ScaredYou because this is the scariest book I've ever read! Years later, it still creeps me out just to think about it. And at least I kept it in the family. 😉#StepenKing17 #OrJoeHill

Josie SO GOOD. @Gayan and I both read this for the first time last year. We lost our shit it was so good. And feel free to deviate from the theme whenever! I love to hear about other scary books that aren't on my radar ❤️ 7y
Gayan What @Josie said. This book was amazing! 7y

Night Shift | Stephen King
post image

I haven't read any of King's truly scary stuff, but my Mom read a lot of his earlier works. We were talking about him today and she said that the short stories in Night Shift finally got to her. She didn't finish the collection and stopped reading his work. 😱 #scaredyou #stephenking17 (image from Wikipedia)

Chessa I think I read this in my parents' walk-in closet when I was pretty young and it SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME! 😱😱😱 7y

I've debated about it all day but I'm going to go with it for #scaredyou and #StephenKing17 I mean, Pennywise is terrifying. But I also considered The Shining and Salems Lot. They all scared the 💩 out of me!

Gayan They are all scary in different ways. IT is just flat out scary as hell. 7y
CocoReads So true! 7y
Dolly I can't remember if clowns scared me before or since this book that I read so long ago. 7y
CocoReads Same here @Dolly but I think before. And ventriloquist dummies. Freakin terrifying. 7y

There are just so many things scary about IT. Georgie and his boat, I mean really, this book started off with a bang and just kept going. The Loser's Club is everything. King sure can write about childhood friendships. This is the van we rode in when we took the SK tour. #scaredyou #stephenking17
