As nominated by our membership in the nomination round and then the semi-final, please vote now for the work you feel should win the award for Most Frightening Published Work.
Should we give one of ours that we think should win or are you going to make a poll of certain ones?
Gotta go with It. It's the only book to ever really truly frighten me.
Should we abstain if we haven't read all of those?
I voted "It". The reason I voted so is that within all the available choices, "It" was the one that scared me the most. I can even remember the first time I finished the story. For nearly a week afterward, I could vividly picture the scene in the library when Pennywise smiles, showing razor-blade teeth, then chomps down. *shudders*
I voted for It.
J&Y, had I not read them all I would pick the most frightening of the ones I have read, but Pablo is right, there are arguments to be made either way.
I voted Desperation, that one was pretty scary to me
After careful consideration between IT and Pet Sematary, I had to choose the latter...for some reason, it really did just scare the crap out of me...That reason being Zelda...shudder.
all very good scary choices, but I had to go with The Shining. The moving creeping topiary was enough to send me into the corner and then I had to put the book in the freezer. *shiver*
I'm with you maer, The Shining all the way.
Super tough choice.
