I was just wondering what would be your most scariest book you have ever read ?
I will start mine was Stephen King Misery, although not the most macabre i have read but certainly the best mind book i have read i went over the scenes in my head for quite some time .

Paul, thanks for the question!

I thought about this a bit, and a lot of the usual's came to mind: It, Christine, Pet Sematary, but none of them left me actually awake for hours on end.

The scariest book I've ever read is 1984. The government powers that it describes really freaked me out, and in the end, when their entire goal was to end up brainwashing the citizen before they killed him--was just devastating.

I agree about Misery though; it was one of King's best. He really knocked it out of the park with the way Annie Wilkes tortured that poor writer.
