The Shining: Intro Blog

Going into the book I figured that Stephen King was like a god among horror writers. The Only real exposure I've had to the horror genre in literature is probably goosebumps, which I read more so to freak out at the ridiculousness. I've never read a "real" horror, nor have I read a book by Stephen King. I'm very excited to see what will be, especially considering all the good things that I've heard about the book. I remember vividly in 8th especially all the hype surrounding Stephen King for whatever reason. Can't remember how it happened but I've always been curious of how a true horror would feel.
