I voted for Pet Sematary. Would also include Cujo to the list (you know me and animal stuff). I don't think I'll ever re-read Cujo, but have been seriously contemplating re-reading Pet Sematary (and re-watching the movie too - haven't seen it since I was 18).

A little vampire kid can be floating through the air and scratching on a window and I'm fine, but someone threatens a bunny and I am trembling and having nightmares.  |

It's top three. I hope you reread Pet Sematary again soon. A little vampire kid can be floating through the air and scratching on a window and I'm fine, but someone threatens a bunny and I am trembling and having nightmares. (Face palm) LOL You're a nut. ☺ |

IT placed second to Pet Semetary for me. Both involve hurting children which always has/will bother me. Yes I care for animals as well but I think part of growing up rural allows a person to look at most as more of a resource rather than humanizing them. Gerald's Game was third to me because it was so graphic and tense.

Gerald's Game! Scariest because I hated it and hope to never see or hear of it again.

This was the last King book I read and then I put him aside for the longest time. It was not until around 2011 or 2012 that I finally "rediscovered" him so to speak and then caught up on all I had missed.
That's also how I discovered the SKMB!

At that time (back in the early 90s) I read it all the way through but wasn't sure how to take it. On a reread many years later I appreciated it more.
That was back when I was in my 30s and doing strange things like going up to a listening station in the high Arctic for a six month tour - that was interesting! I got posted there from March to September 1992 and the extreme isolation kind of plays tricks with your mind.
So to answer your question yes I did like it but it took a second reading before I can honestly say that.

It reminds me of The Thing. Okay - sure - give me time to think about that.
It was many many years ago.
I posted a very old picture on FB recently in which I'm sitting on Santa's lap (that was July 25th or Christmas in July up there).
And - as far as The Thing goes - I love that movie!
I think John Carpenter is a very good director

Neesy, your trip to the arctic station sounds fascinating. You have spoken about it before but I would love to hear the details if you have time. Didn't we briefly discuss it in a PM once? Anyway, I really would like to hear how it came about, what you did, what was involved, how you communicated (and with whom you communicated), etc..
