Even with short stories, Stephen King brings horror and the creep factor to his words. I can't really pick my favorite out of the list, but I will say that most gave me a range of creepiness or outright freaked me out a little. (Except for the last one, which was oddly wholesome for a horror story.) I love his little author's note at the beginning where he describes novels as an affair and short stories as a kiss in the dark, a weird analogy but somehow apt.
