Not really scary, it's more sad, with its scary elements being more interesting and eerie than horror. I don't think that was a bad thing with this book though.

5.0

      This was the first book that I have ever read from Stephen King, and may I just say that I am lost for words. King has an utterly incredible writing style; he is so descriptive that it took me a while to finish the novel. The story itself is amazing as well. I believe that that scariest part of Pet Semetary was not Church, but Zelda (She is especially creepy in the movies.). I will most definitely recommend this novel if you are into the horror genre, and I cannot wait to read more from the legend that is Stephen King.
