RE: The Skeleton Crew

Who could imagine... ?

In this brilliant collection of twenty-two stories, Stephen King takes readers down paths that only he could imagine... .

A supermarket becomes the place where humanity makes its last stand against unholy destruction... a trip to the attic turns into a journey to hell... a woman driver finds a very scary shortcut to paradise... an idyllic lake harbors a bottomless evil... and a desert island is the scene of the most terrifying struggle for survival ever waged.

Features the novella “The Mist” — Now a major motion picture

RE: Different Seasons

From the Magical Pen of Stephen King, Four Mesmerizing Novellas...

“Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption” — An unjustly imprisoned convict seeks a strange and startling revenge... the basis for the Best Picture Academy Award nominee The Shawshank Redemption.

“Apt Pupil” — Todd Bowden is one of the top students in his high school class and a typical American sixteen-year-old — until he becomes obsessed about the dark and deadly past of an older man in town. The inspiration for the film Apt Pupil from Phoenix Pictures.

“The Body” — Four rambunctious young boys plunge through the façade of a small town and come face-to-face with life, death, and intimations of their own mortality. The film Stand By Me is based on this novella.
