Stephen King Confessions @stephen-king-confessions - Tumblr Blog

The more I read King's stories the more I feel like if he was struggling with suppressed pedophilia.

(Just want to clarify here that this is a submitted confession and does not reflect the opinion of the blog owner.)

Confession: I hate the new IT movie! It’s a bad adaption of the book. It completely ruins Mike’s character and makes me so mad!

Confession: I feel super alone in the fandom for liking the ending of It; it just felt super cool when I was reading it for the first time!

There is a rumor that Stephen King read a horror book found on Amazon called : THE LIFT by PAUL BRUCE, cried and said " Why didn't I think of all that?"

Thanks for sharing!

One of the short stories by SK that most affected me was “Strawberry Spring”. The ending caught me by surprise and for some reason, the story stays with me. Am I alone? I never see anybody mention the tale.

Confession Part 2 (Spoilers for The Man in the Black Suit):

She lived a few blocks from where the events that inspired The Exorcist took place, in the same year— and she described the devil almost exactly as King did in the story, down to the long fingernails which he scraped along the door.

Confession Part 1 (Spoilers for The Man in the Black Suit):

I read the story called “The Man in the Black Suit” in Everything’s Eventual and it terrified me. The story is about the devil appearing to a little boy, and he’s wearing a suit and has long fingernails. In the notes, King explained that he was inspired by his friend’s grandfather who saw the devil when he was a little boy. My own grandmother says she thought she saw the devil when she was five years old.

The first Stephen King book I ever read was Carrie, I was 13 and had just started getting my period. I was bullied incessantly in middle and high school until I transferred out. At the time, when I felt like the ugly friend pretty girls keep around to look good, or the weirdo that people use as the butt of every joke, the book meant a lot to me at the time. I was so frustrated with everything and everyone at my school at the time, but I knew nothing good would come of fighting back in any way. King truly captured the mind of an isolated teenage girl, and it started my obsession with his work.

The only SK story that disturbed me truly and deeply was Apt Pupil. I had to abandon it about halfway through because it was that upsetting. People say things like Pet Sematary and IT are his scariest works, but I think Apt Pupil was a thousand times more upsetting because I have no doubt that something like that could actually happen. (Props to Mr. King for being able to tap the dark side of the human psyche so effectively though!)

I feel like nobody will ever be as in love with the character John Hunton from the film adaptation of “The Mangler” as much as I am. It makes me feel awkward, especially since I’m a constant reader of Stephen King’s writings and usually prefer those to the films.

I cried multiple times while reading IT.

I read Rage once. I found a copy of The Bachman Books with Rage included in my school library in 9th grade and Rage was my favorite. Then I switched schools and when I tried to find the book again I learned what happened. I really want to read it again but I haven't been able to find an affordable copy.

Wizard and Glass was the absolute WORST Dark Tower book and I have no idea why everyone likes it.

I had never been scared of a book before Salem’s Lot. That book unhinged me every single night. I would look at my window and expect to see someone start to tap to be let in. First book that ever gave me extreme creeps.

So I’m rereading The Stand, and I get to the part where Larry’s crew is outside Boulder and he and Lucy have that fight because he’s in love with Nadine, and I realized that it’s the same situation that I am in with a friend of mine that I have been seeing. Lol I guess you know you’re an adult when you sympathize with Lucy Swann instead of Nadine Cross.

Spoiler for The Outsider:

I started listening to Kings' new book, "The Outsider". I was extremely interested and sucked in at first, because I thought that there was somehow going to be an ordinary reason for what was happening. Instead (and obviously, now that I'm thinking about it and almost done with it), he took it and made it supernatural. I'm kind of disappointed that he didn't write it to be like a regular crime novel and instead decided to add the spooky otherworldly stuff to it. That is to say, however, that I'm still quite enjoying it and it's a pretty good book.
