Meg Hafdahl and Kelly Florence, authors of The Science of Monsters and The Science of Women in Horror, and co-hosts of the Horror Rewind podcast, are back this Halloween with brand new book The Science of Stephen King, which promises to reveal “The Truth Behind Pennywise, Jack Torrance, Carrie, Cujo, and More Iconic Characters from the Master of Horror.”
Through interviews, literary and film analysis, and bone-chilling discoveries, The Science of Stephen King provides a guide to the stories and characters we all know and love by delving into the uniquely horrific King universe to uncover the science behind the legendary novels that have become an integral part of modern pop culture, answering such questions as:
- What is the science behind time travel and parallel universes like in The Dark Tower series and 11/22/63?
- How does lack of sleep affect the human body like in Insomnia?
- Is it possible for horrific creatures to exist like in Nightshift?
- What is the science behind curses and legends like in Dreamcatcher and Thinner?
The book, which sounds like a fascinating must-read for all fans of King’s work, will be released by Skyhorse on October 6, 2020. Pre-order your copy on Amazon for just $13.40.
