In the following, I will list a short overview on the particular stories with my opinions on them. But on the other hand, some of the best short stories which might be discovered in King's writing universe are included here. In its entirety, however, I consider "Night Shift" to be a rather weak collection of short stories, and critics will certainly find affirmation that King is also able to write true crap. Many original horror stories are included in this collection, with most of them having been adapted into classic horror movies like "Children of the Corn", "Graveyard Shift" or "The Mangler". mostly because it's only the second anthology by King I have read so far. Many readers consider this book to be one of Stephen King's most popular short story collections, and I can't disagree with that opinion. Sure its "old" but the stories and themes are timeless! Seriously this is a great book for when you need a little something to keep you occupied for short bursts, but it is good enough to read in one sitting. Those are the ones I can remember off the top of my head. makes sure that those who join, never smoke again.no matter what. Horror- when the "Boogeyman" is real and Mom and Dad won't believe.Ĭontemporary - Quitters Inc. Too-perfect" has a secret way of making sure his girlfriend gets whatever she needs exactly when she doesn't even know she needs it. Supernatural- what happens when modern day substitutes of an old world demon summoning spell accidentally finds their way onto (and into) a behemoth of a factory sheet presser.Ĭoming of Age- a college aged "Mr. Gore- When a dad cracks open a cold one that tastes "off", he begins to drastically change not only his eating habits but his entire form. See the cover of this edition for a hint. Sci-fi- when the astronaut comes back with an "extra" passenger who is slowly taking him over. This anthology contains a little bit of everything. This particular book is classic King when he was still kind of new. I can always pick up one of his books that I have read multiple times. As far as horror goes, I cut my teeth on Stephen King as a kid and have been reading and re-reading his books ever since. I tend to yo-yo between horror fiction and romance genres. I need to create a whole new account to cover all the non-romance/urban fantasy/chick-lit/new adult/pnr/smut books that I tend to read. Well it seems that I don't have the shelves to properly cover my horror/gore reading habit.
