I read a ton of Stephen King as a kid and I think my kid will be into it, but I'm not sure which book would be a good entry point. He has so many different types of story from weird to horror to mind bending. What would you use as a good entry for his horror? For an 11 year old.

Update... Thank you so much everyone! This thread is making me want to reread the books myself too 😄

Emphasis on "loosely."

Yep, Haven is supernatural while the book is not. It’s more about using the mystery of the book to create a whole different (but really intriguing and King-like) world. They are both good in their own way.
