American writer Stephen king, known for his novels in the style of horror, in the online broadcast of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, posted on YouTube, explained why the quarantine period, people are more likely to read horror stories.
According to him, in hard times people are always fond of creepy stories. “When you dive in If it bleeds (the new book of the writer — ed. “Of the tape.ru”), “Gerald’s Game” (a novel by king, released in 1992 — ed. “Of the tape.ru”), or any other material, the situation there is much worse than when you are in four walls without toilet paper,” said king.
After reading such works, the readers start to sleep better, confident writer. Horror movies allow them to escape and to make sure that the characters of the novels things are faring much worse.
Earlier, Stephen king said that in the epidemic of the coronavirus people feel like in his horror work. However, he added that he tries not to compare COVID-2019 with “supergruppo” described in his post-apocalyptic novel “the Standoff” in 1978.
