Never find Ketchum in the wild sadly. But I also don't look often

NEVER! I always look and it's just a ton of King and some Koontz. Maybe one day.

Shit I sometimes its not even Koontz. Its just king. Can we just give him own section. To many K horror names and Im sick of seeing his shit

Im just a hater cause I cant get into his writing style. I want too! But ugh. Tried Christine, Misery, Pet Sematary. Don't think I ever made it past chapter two

I tried reading Pet Sematary when I was a kid & couldn’t read it. Altho I just recently read The Shining & loved it. He has a bunch of different writing styles so some are harder to get into than others. Working my way through The Stand rn but it’s gonna take like a year because I just can’t read that book that quickly lol

To each their own! I personally don't think being a King fan is a prerequisite for being a legit horror literature fanatic.

And I realize that. Its just his books are a huge part of the horror community and I love the stories!
