    "The Mist" TV series

    But 11/22/63 was an excellent series

    Charlie the Choo-Choo?

    Yeah that would have been almost like a King story ;)

    Charlie the Choo-Choo?

    Well, I was right, after all. It is taken directly from The Waste Lands as King wrote it, so it is King after all, and not some other person's adaptation. The woman pretending to be Beryl Evans was a hired actress named Alison Davies.

    Charlie the Choo-Choo?

    So it's adapted by someone else. Still very interesting

    Charlie the Choo-Choo?

    Ah, now I finally get it (blame the heat): King is the author since it's basically the story he told in The Waste Lands, this time just illustrated and presented as its own book. If some copies should ever surface on eBay and the likes, they're gonna be very expensive!

    Charlie the Choo-Choo?

    I still think Robin Furth is the real author.

    Charlie the Choo-Choo?

    Could it be Robin Furth "posing" as Evans and that the book will be one of Marvel's one-shot comics? If so, that's not so exciting for me, since I no longer collect or read those comics. But we will soon see

    Charlie the Choo-Choo?

    I guess you are right. Would have been fun, though. Yup, the Diary book was written by Ridley Pearson.

    Charlie the Choo-Choo?

    Seems like there's an actual book of Charlie the Choo-Choo by the fictional author Beryl Evans? That's the newest info via Lilja's Library. Will we get a new book (a short one, I'm sure) by some yet-to-be-revealed author as was the case with The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer?

    "Old Chief Wood'nhead" and "The Hitch-Hiker"

    Oh, and Old Chief Wood'nhead was actually first a short story that King once tried to write but never completed. It was then titled Chief Woodenhead.

    I rewatched this recently...

    There was no book of Rose Red, only a screenplay. The tie-in book The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer was written by Ridley Pearson.

    "Old Chief Wood'nhead" and "The Hitch-Hiker"

    Pinfall was never a story, but a treatment. Cat from Hell and The Raft were actual stories. But, yup, King did outline Creepshow 2, by longhand, in a handbook/ledger which he provided to Romero. According to Romero, King even put dialogues in these synopses/outlines.

    Question Regarding X-files Season 5 "ch*nga" Co-wrote With Stephen King

    The final draft (and the show that was produced) was shorter and more focused on just the evil or cursed doll. King's original script was more about the girl being the fault of the doll's powers. King originaly wrote a script titled Molly which was more like Firestarter, and it was about an evil...

    Cell

    King wrote a screenplay that was rewritten, and probably extensively, by another writer named Adam Alleca. I'm certain that most of the changes (especially the ones that did not work or make sense) and the rush of the movie, can be blamed on Alleca. I always enjoy reading King's screenplays, and...

    Unpublished?

    Thanks, you made my day:)

    Unpublished?

    It was in the introduction to the complete serial novel published in 1997. Meaning it wasn't in the first 1996 Green Mile publication foreword. Thanks, Mrs. Mod;)

    The Official Biography Of Richard Bachman

    UPDATE (sort of - and maybe Mrs. Mod would be so kind to try and ask Steve about this since I would really want this mystery solved): According to a few sources I found on the Internet, King's bibliography of Bachman was part of a press release in 1985 and likely before the omnibus collection...

    Ghosts

    King's original script for Ghosts is one of those that is so hard to get hold on. I once corresponded with Mick Garris who once had it but he had no idea where copies of the script could be as of today.

    Question on unpublished works

    I believe it was King's reveal that he once tried to write a novel in the 70s that was busted - a novel with a similar plot like The Tommyknockers.
