Query: Excellent read, slow start though

Excellent story... unfortunately not entirely his own. King follows the same path as Bram Stoker's Dracula. The chain of events is almost identical. Fortunately, King puts his own style and twist into the novel with a few original ideas and characters that are much more identifiable than those of Stoker's. I was 11 when I first read this. I was so parnoid by the time I finished it(at 2am) that i pushed my desk in an attemot to block entry to my room. It scared me to death. I loved it! The chaces are that i am paranoid and demented but, by all means read this book.
