I was in Bangor twice and visited his house! Once in Juli 05, right in the big summer heat and then in Feb 09 right after the big snow storm. Everything was covered in piles of snow, even SK house. Just a small path to the garage on the driveway. And both times he wasnt in...probably in his summer home in Palm Springs, FL. But it was still exciting to stand there!
I'm so glad I'm not rich and famous (well, just famous, lol); It'd be a little awkward staring out my window and seeing some people looking at my house and videotaping. LOL. I love Stephen King's books (most). He's such an awesome writer.
Not any more some stupid kid tripped on his stairs back in the late 80's and they sued him. His lawyers said it would be too much of a liability to allow trick or treaters anymore. Because of some fucking stupid retarded kid!
It was just like going to any other house . I have home movies of it and I will have to transfer it some day. The house is creepy looking from the outside but it wasn't decorated any other way then that.
It was so long ago . When I transfer my home movies it will tell me more. I believe he stopped doing it however because so many people showed up. I met him at a Red Sox game a few years back and talked to him about it. He told me something like that. I still have the autographed baseball he gave me.
I imagine that at this point the Kings are pretty used to it as are their neighbors. The fact that the house has the gothic fence says that they know people will be coming by gawking around so they gave them something amusing to look at. The Kings also know that some people are wrapped a little more loosely than others and I am sure they have some state of the art security happening to keep the spacecowboys at bay. I admit if I were in Maine I would check it out but respectfully and then leave.
I visited this video because in his novels, Stephen King often refers to Bangor Maine and more recently in his book 'On Writing', he speaks of his houses.
It's interesting to put a face to the name as it were! Nice house though, from telling a few yarns!!
You should read 'On Writing' if you hav'nt already, lots to do with his life and writing style, and a vivid account of his accident..
I just recently got some pictures of his house. My cousins live about a mile away on 16th street. I was there just last week and I gotta say, it's chilling but at the same time cool to be in front of.
I wonder what the inside looks like.
