Stephen King Coming to Harlem?

On April 27, 2007 by D. Bell

Not sure how many Stephen King fans are out there but you just might be the subject of his next novel.  Apparently the dramatic suspense writer has been inspired to set his next novel in Harlem! How scary is that?

He’s been inspired to write a horror novel set in Harlem, he said, in which the crimes come courtesy of some old-school voodoo. “I’d have to live four years in Harlem to write it,” he told us. “I’m a country kid, and this is the city. I’m a white kid, and it’s a black neighborhood. So I’d have to do some research.”

One Response to “Stephen King Coming to Harlem?”

  • Anyone coming to Harlem now, to live from 2007 to 2011 will not have lived in Harlem. Stephan King missed Harlem plain and simple. But he writes fiction anyway so I suppose it does not matter.
