Off Topic, HELP remembering a King book title!


I remember it was really good. I can't remember the title or very much of the *rest* of the story. For that I am most probably going to want to do a silly walk that leads to kicking myself in the buttocks. So here's what stands out.

There was a guy in a nursing home , and he was *secretly* getting out somehow to commit murders or some crime.

Not much, sorry.

Oh man if it's THIS book, someone needs to give me some thorazine, but I'm pretty sure it's a later work.

You don`t need to kick yourself anymore :-) If I remember correctly, it is "Black House" you are looking for.


My mom says you have the best posture of anyone she knows!

YES! Thankee Sai.

Oh man I SO hope they don't screw up The Talisman so much that Black House can't be made. I read King and Straub are making it a trilogy as well.

I have not read "Black House" but that also sounds a little like "IT" bc there's a bad guy in a mental institution who gets out to commit murder...?
