This book was actually creepy, not scary, but creepy. The manner of writing that King brings to the table here rolls the story out in such an amazing way that I could help but fall in to Salem’s Lot head first.

This book will likely go down as one of my favorites.

I really enjoyed this book! I wouldn’t necessarily say it was scary, but it was definitely dark. His words were so enticing, and I couldn’t stop listening (listened to audiobook) to it. Definitely put me in the mood for spooky season. I am excited to read more of his books!
