I've talked before about stories that are so compelling to read that you remember them long after you've read them. So, Saturday night everytime the trick-or-treaters knocked on the door and I reached for the door handle to open the door, I hesitated as Guy Bellerantis' Tricked You Good in the regular edition of Emerald Tales flashed through my mind.
Thanks, Guy, for creeping me out on Halloween night.
I love stories that stay with you. I have never looked at fog the same way since I read Stephen King's The Mist, and that was over 10 years ago.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Cherie about Stephen King. He makes you look at something in a totally different way and you never see it the same again: such as Red Tennis Shoes (Sometimes They Come Back), a balloon (It), a cat (Pet Cemetary)...I could go on and on.
ReplyDeleteSee, I know Stephen King would give me nightmares for a year. That's why I don't read him.
