julietlxo 's review for:

Strawberry Spring by Stephen King
4.0

To be completely honest, I listened to this audiobook to catch up on my Goodreads goal. I was pleasantly surprised with this short little tale.

Life on any college campus can be peculiar on a normal day, but this particular campus that King draws up is haunted by a serial killer called "Springheel Jack." The campus brings what's called a "strawberry spring", basically a "fake" spring. This spring brings along a thick fog, and this fog brings forth Springheel Jack. Every time the fog falls upon the campus, someone is killed.

I enjoyed it. I did a little research on the name Springheeled Jack and found information on an entity from English Folklore during the Victorian period with that exact name. You can google this further for yourself if it intrigues you.
