It's Almost Time for Halloween, So You Know What That Means...

It's the time of year when Stephen King reminds us that he is the king of terror. He's having a major year, what with the IT remake killing it at the box office and the small screen remake of The Mist (though I could barely get through the first two episodes without falling into a deep slumber). He's also got film adaptations coming our way that I am psyched about. Check below for deets:
