Plot
When the Creeds move into a beautiful old house in rural Maine , it all seems too
good to be true: physician father, beautiful wife, charming little daughter,
adorable infant son -- and now an idyllic home. As a family, they've got it
all...right down to the friendly cat.
But the nearby woods hide a
blood-chilling truth -- more terrifying than death itself...and hideously more
powerful.

Overview
First published in 1983, Pet Sematary has since been
regarded as one of Stephen King's most frightening and controversial novels.
Daring to cross the boundaries of conventional fiction, King has woven a tale
so fundamentally startling that he himself was hesitant for it to see the light
of day upon its completion. A multilayered examination into the nature of
untimely death, shattering loss, and utter desperation, Pet Sematary tears
asunder the very fabric connecting our seemingly normal world and the afterlife...leaving
readers with an awful truth too haunting to forget. (Source Barnes&Noble)
