'Salem's Lot (50th Anniversary)

Following the successful launch of our new Classic King range with CARRIE, comes a beautiful hardback edition of King’s second published novel, ‘SALEM’S LOT, produced for the fiftieth Anniversary with a new introduction by Joe Hill.

‘Salem’s Lot is a small New England town with white clapboard houses, tree-lined streets and solid church steeples. Of course there are tales of strange happenings – but no more than in any other such town.

Ben Mears has returned to the Lot to write a novel and exorcise the terrors that have haunted him since childhood – since the event he witnessed at the Marsten House.

He finds the house has been rented by a newcomer, a man who causes Ben some unease. And then things start to happen: a child disappears, a dog is brutally killed – nothing unusual, except the list keeps growing . . .
