The #1 New York Times bestseller—a mesmerizing treasury of short stories by Stephen King.

An eerie-looking child’s toy harbors an unimaginable evil. A supermarket is unexpectedly the place where humanity makes its last stand against destruction. A trip to the attic becomes a journey to hell. An idyllic lake conceals a bottomless terror. And a desert island is the scene of the most frightening struggle for survival ever waged.

Featuring the short story “The Monkey” (now a major motion picture) and the novella “The Mist,” which was both a feature film and television series, as well as many other haunting now classic tales, this magnificent collection is enduring and irresistible proof that Stephen King is a true master of the short story form.

Loved it

Great short stories the narrators did a great job, I can't wait to see the movie adaptations.

Pretty good

Narrations were pretty good no one horrible, production nice as well. Some good stories in there but also some that I was awaiting to get through. Personally i’m finding I enjoy full novels, just feel like I’m getting more out of them.

Do you love?

Great collection of King's shorts stories. Only one narrator that I just don't like, Will Patton. His characters voices are really good, but his drawn voice as a narrator is jarring for me. Other than that great fucking stories. Recommend listening to all the stories.

Another great collection.

Stephen King's collection of short stories are absolutely amazing. I highly recommend them. The audiobook has a great list of readers who all do a fantastic job.

Good

I enjoyed listening to this book that I’d read so long ago I’d forgotten most of it. Most of the readers were really good, the exception being Stephen King which kinda blew me away. I’m sure I’ll eventually work my way thru the King library this way.
Pet Semetary was Spectacular.
