By E. Reyes Twitter - Instagram If I had to choose who's having the best year ever, I'd definitely choose the master of horror, Stephen King.

This person has their own writing and twisted thoughts. A story well done. Not for the squeamish, but I highly recommend. 4. Tales From The Dark Side (Scripts) by Joe Hill When I first heard the news that Tales From The Dark Side was shooting a pilot episo...
