Stephen King Archives

Caroline Bicks, the inaugural Stephen E. King Chair of Literature at the University of Maine, returns to continue our conversation about her new book, Monsters in the Archives: My Year of Fear with Stephen King. Caroline reveals her own terrifying fears and shares the kind of book she did not want to write; how she dared to infuse her academic writing with (gasp!) personality; her desire to become a bridge that connects King to the Renaissance to academia and back again; why anyone would want to sleep in room 217; the prospect of reading King aloud at bedtime to your kids; some surprising love for King’s underrated zombie novel Cell; and the most horrifying moment in cinema from the last thirty years.
