Just read this book the other day, mainly because with its use of a painting and the murderous entity connected to it, it bears some similarities to my novel The Glimpsing. I really enjoyed it; King is so good a making things creepy. I would love to see him turn it into a full length novel. Here's to hoping he does so in the future.

It had me holding my breath for all of its 25 pages… and leaves you yearning for more.
It would be amazing if there was a follow up to this story.
