Pet Sematary : King's #1 Bestseller - Soon to Be a Major Motion Picture

The house looked right felt right to Dr Louis Creed. Rambling old unsmart and comfortable. A place where the family could settle; the children grow and play and explore. The rolling hills and meadows of Maine seemed a world away from the fume-choked dangers of Chicago. Only the occasional big truck out on the two-lane highway grinding up through the gears hammering down the long gradients growled out an intrusive threat. But behind the house and far away from the road: that was safe. Just a carefully cleared path up into the woods where generations of local children have processed with the solemn innocence of the young taking with them their dear departed pets for burial. A sad place maybe but safe. Surely a safe place. Not a place to seep into your dreams to wake you sweating with fear and foreboding.
