I would say 'Carrie'. It was King's first published novel and it's a great example of his ability to create complex characters. Carrie is a sympathetic character, but also a powerful and terrifying one when her telekinetic powers are unleashed. The high - school setting adds to the horror as it's a place that should be safe but turns into a nightmare.
I consider 'The Boogeyman' to be one of the best. It plays on a very common childhood fear - the monster in the closet. King has a way of taking these simple fears and making them truly terrifying. The way he builds suspense and makes the reader wonder if there really is something lurking in the dark is masterful.
I think 'Misery' is an excellent choice. It focuses on a writer who is held captive by his so - called 'number one fan'. The psychological horror of being at the mercy of a deranged person is intense. Annie Wilkes, the captor, is a complex and terrifying character.
It's tough to pick just one. 'The Shining' is often considered a masterpiece. It's got that creepy atmosphere and unforgettable characters.

Personally, I believe 'Player Piano' is a great Vonnegut novel. It was one of his earlier works and it already shows his talent for exploring social and technological issues. It's set in a future where machines have taken over most jobs, and it examines the impact on society and the individual in a very intelligent way.
I consider 'Demons' to be one of the best. It's a dark and intense exploration of nihilism and revolutionary ideas in 19th - century Russia. The characters are complex and the plot is full of twists and turns. Dostoyevsky's examination of the destructive power of certain ideologies is still relevant today.
Definitely 'Misery'. The idea of being held captive by a deranged fan is just so frightening. Annie Wilkes is a character that sends shivers down your spine. She can be so sweet one moment and then extremely cruel the next. Paul Sheldon's helplessness in the situation and the things he has to endure at her hands make it a really scary read.", "Answer2: "I find 'Salem's Lot' to be very scary. The slow takeover of a small town by vampires is a classic horror scenario. The way the vampires blend in at first and then start to show their true nature is quite terrifying. The descriptions of the vampire attacks, like when the vampires come to people's windows at night, create a great sense of fear.
For me, 'Children of the Corn' is the best. It has such a unique concept. The idea of a town where the children have taken over and are running this dark cult is really spooky. The way King describes the cornfields and how they seem to have a life of their own adds to the overall atmosphere. And the children themselves are both innocent - looking and yet so menacing at the same time. It's a story that really sticks in your mind long after you've read it.

'Misery'. It's about a famous novelist who is held captive by his so - called 'number one fan', Annie Wilkes.
