Can you recommend some Stephen King - type novels from other authors?

Yes, Paul Sheldon in 'Misery' is an author. He writes romance novels.

I'd recommend 'Salem's Lot'. It's a vampire story set in a small town, creating a really spooky atmosphere. '11/22/63' is also interesting. It involves time travel and an attempt to prevent the assassination of President Kennedy. 'The Dark Tower' series is quite complex and epic, following the journey of the gunslinger Roland across a strange and dangerous world.

Sure. 'The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born' is a great one. It brings the world of the Dark Tower to vivid life in graphic novel form.

Sure. 'The Shining' is a very famous one. It's about a family who takes care of an isolated hotel during the off - season and the horrors that unfold there. Another great one is 'It', which features a terrifying clown named Pennywise that preys on children in a small town.

One of Stephen King's 2019 novels is 'The Institute'. It's a great read with a thrilling plot that involves a mysterious institute and the children held there against their will.

Sure. 'The Shining' is a great one. It tells the story of a family in an isolated hotel with terrifying supernatural elements. Another is 'It', which features a menacing clown that preys on children. And 'Carrie' is also well - known, about a girl with telekinetic powers who is bullied at school.

Stephen King is the primary author for all of his novels. While there are some characters in his books who are writers, like Paul Sheldon in 'Misery' and Jack Torrance in 'The Shining'. These characters' writer - identities are part of the complex tapestry that King weaves in his stories. They are used to explore themes such as creativity, madness, and the power of the written word within the context of his horror - filled and often psychologically - intense narratives.

Sure. 'Mr. Mercedes' has some similarities. It also involves a mysterious and malevolent force in an ordinary setting. Another one could be 'Pet Sematary', which has that same blend of the normal and the horrifying that King does so well.

Sure. 'Pet Sematary' is one. It deals with themes of death and the supernatural in a very dark and disturbing way. The idea of a place where things can come back to life but not in the way one would hope is really spooky.
