#1 Revisiting Carrie (1974) After 50 Years… Does Stephen King’s First Book Still Shock?

Today, 5 April 2024, marks 50 YEARS since the first publication of Carrie, Stephen King's debut novel! To mark half a century of King as a published author, I decided to go back to that start and reread Carrie, vlogging my journey as I did. This video is the result! So, come spend some time with me as I go back to Chamberlain, Maine, and dare to attend the Black Prom at Ewen High School...will I make it out alive? Please note, there are spoilers for Carrie throughout this video!
