I took that picture today from across the street and from inside the car so as not to be intrusive on a Sunday (so....no model.....it's his real house)

Thanks for the reply. I guess the estate looks a bit different these days. That is really a great piece of property. I'm not sure if he does much writing there these days -- I get the impression he mostly writes in Florida, or maybe one of his other homes -- but it would be great if every once in a while he specifically wrote a short story there and tagged it as being "straight from the most haunted house in Bangor." Be a fun marketing thing.

I'd have to check again, but I'm pretty sure I saw a section of a model -- or something similar to a model -- of a house that was red with a fence with bats in front of it, plus the figure of course. Not sure if you had posted that, maybe someone else did?

Ahhh.Yes,I know what you are talking about.That is a miniature house that I made.It was a standard dollhouse kit (I think the brand was Melissa and Doug) that I built and decorated with Stephen King themed items.I originally had the trim painted white but it looked like a schoolhouse so it was changed to black.

Great thread. I didn't read every single post, but I enjoyed seeing the action-figure version of King in these shots. A few questions.

Is this action figure from The Simpsons line of merchandise? I thought that was mentioned in the thread, but I can't relocate the post.

GNT, that is an excellent pair of action figures. Did you make that yourself? Are any of the other figures shown in the thread homemade?

Someone I think said they were getting a Tom Hanks figure. I wondered if this meant some of these figures were being custom made, maybe 3D-printed? Don't know a lot about that technology.

In one of the photos, I thought I saw a glimpse of a model of King's Bangor home. Is that correct? If so, was it made, or is it being sold somewhere under license?

Is the shot with mini-King in front of his home recent? I thought there was supposed to be a lot of flora growing around the fence, or is that no longer the case?
...no sir, those were purchased figures....

I don't know where else I'd put this so......

I came up with this very special Christmas Carol last year and thought I would share it with you all now so you can teach your children the words or maybe even sing it to your neighbors when you go out caroling.If you have a mean pair of chops please feel free to put it to music and record a video for us.It should be sung to the tune of ,"Jingle Bells." :m_stocking:

"WE ALL FLOAT"

Playing in the rain,
Floating my new boat,
It went down the sewer,
Sure hope it stays afloat.
What is that I see?
IT sure looks like a clown,
Holding up a red balloon,
HELP! I'm going down......


We All float,
We all float,
We all float down here.
If you play af-ter the rain,
You might dis-a- pee-ear!
We all float
We all float
We all float down here,
You should have run fast and far
When you saw that evil lear!

A day or two ago,
IT took my brothers arm,
Derry is a quiet place,
This caused us some alarm!
My friends and I all met,
The Barrens was our spot,
We'd have to do a ritual,
Let's hope we dont get caught.

Oh!We All float,
We all float,
We all float down here.
If you play af-ter the rain,
You might dis-a- pee-ear!
We all float
We all float
We all float down here,
If you see the Deadlights then....
You.....are....dead....I .....feeeeaaaaar.


Happy Holidays!

Miniature Stephen King has no time for shenanigans right now.He is too busy writing a story about why there is still no snow in Maine and it is almost January! (....that could be a killer story) .So in his absence Bad Little Kid has agreed to step in for the mini Christmas Adventure. (please feel free to use your imagination to insert a proper back drop and a few elves scattered about.)
