Lori: "I love the character of ROLAND. But he is a very scary character." I agree Lori, I really admire his character, but his relentlessness and his ruthlessness, his ability to sacrifice anyone and everyone, no matter how close to him, and put it down to 'ka', and then keep on going with his quest...100% coldblooded!
I'm going with Big Jim Rennie. I admit that Annie Wilkes was pretty scary but she was kind of predictable. I mean Paul could tell when things were going to start getting bad by the way she was acting...like how she would start eating alot. With Big Jim his whole issue is a wild grasp for power and complete desperation at keeping certain things hidden. I think he would sacrifice anybody for his own ambitions even his son. That dude scares me.P.S. I love Supernatural too. Two hot guys fighting demons. Is there anything better?
Mordred son the crimson king from the dark tower really really scared me. I have to admit I slept with the lights switched on a few nights while reading Song of Susannah and the dark tower.And if you read skeleton crew, there is a short story called survivor type that haunted me for weeks. I was terrified, not by the character Richard Pine, but by the extent to which a person would go to stay alive.
I think the part that really freaked me out was the creepy guy in Gerald's Game, how he just stood in the shadows watching her there tied to the bed, and then later when she finally made her escape and he was in the house.... o man, I always check my backseat when I go anywhere at night.
Christian said: "o man, I always check my backseat when I go anywhere at night." :) so did I after finishing the book... I expected to see his eyes in the rear-view mirror for quite a while.
Todd in Apt Pupil is scary, for he could be real.
For me it's a tie between Gage at the end and Pennywise. Both really creepy.
Pet Sematary is one of SK's creepiest books for me.
