I read a ton of Stephen King as a kid and I think my kid will be into it, but I'm not sure which book would be a good entry point. He has so many different types of story from weird to horror to mind bending. What would you use as a good entry for his horror? For an 11 year old.

Update... Thank you so much everyone! This thread is making me want to reread the books myself too ๐Ÿ˜„

The Eyes of the Dragon? Tbh I was around that age when I started reading Stephen King, and my introduction was The Tommyknockers, which I enjoyed, and Firestarter, which I loved but I don't know if I can recommend them because I can't remember for sure if either of them have graphic sex scenes...

Oh, and there's Carrie of course. A banger.
