Quiz: Can You Guess the Stephen King Book Based on a Synonym?

For the past several decades, Stephen King has given readers one terrifying page-turner after another. Dozens of his works have been adapted for film and TV, some more than once. So even if you haven’t read every King book on the shelves, you’re probably familiar with many of their titles.

The quiz below challenges you to guess the Stephen King title based on a synonym. All 12 entries are novels and novellas (no short stories). Most were published under his own name, but two were published under the pseudonym Richard Bachman—those are marked with asterisks.

Here are the rules:

You have unlimited guesses.
After your first wrong guess, you can skip to the next question.
Capitalization doesn’t matter—feel free to write in lowercase.
The word the doesn’t change. (E.g., for The Haze, the answer will be The _____ .)
All answers are revealed at the end of the quiz.

Good luck!
