Episode 260-Bonus Episode
22/01/2026 Duration: 24minIn this episode, originally released on April 3, 2018, I read some listener e-mail and discuss the (at the time) Stephen King news. As always, write in at stephenkingcast@yahoo.com Follow me on Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook and Bluesky. Stay organized and up to date with all things Stephen King at stephenkingcast.com From the original description: "Hey guys! This past weekend, news hit that a big-budget adaptation of The Tommyknockers directed by The Conjuring and Insidious director James Wan was being shopped around. So I decided to share my thoughts on this, along with my thoughts on some news regarding The Stand adaptation. But because The Tommyknockers is such a maligned and unloved novel, I thought it was important for people to be able to see it in a different light, so I've re-released my review of the book, which isn't without it's flaws, but is jam-packed with wonderful ideas, imagery and chills that make me excited for whatever James Wan (I trust that guy!) has up his sleeve."
