I was nicer and gave it a 2.5 :smile:

Hell yeah man, mine too. It was my first SK love.

True story: I was visiting my grandmother in Mexico back in 98' and she had this on her coffee table. She doesn't speak a word of English, she said she picked up a copy at a book store in Guadalajara because she knew I was visiting and that I was into "spooky things".

The rest as they say, is history.

4. I don’t remember the story well. I just remember I enjoyed it. This one should be on the reread list.
