He written instant horror classics that still terrify people today. What is his best and why?

"The Shinning" is definitly a classic. "REDRUM REDRUM"!
I also like "Chattering Teeth" about a possesed set of toy wind-up teeth. lol

As Bachman, I'd have to go with Road Work, with The Long Walk coming in as a close second.
As King, I don't know, it's tough. I was a Tower junkie until 6 & 7 came along (I thought those two were less inspired, and maybe more hurried than the rest) so my first impulse is one of the tower books, probably #3, The Wastelands, but The Stand is way up there too.

As written under the name Bachman it would be Regulators, written as King its Black House with Peter Staub

absolute favourite is Needful Things, Pet Sematary was also great, so much that he scared himself with it while writing it. The Regulators (Bachman) good as well, I scared the crap out of people by working excerpts from it into posts in a community. HAHA

definitely "The Stand". It has more intense characters and plot line. It also gives more hours of reading pleasure, because of its length

i think his work under the name Bachman is so much better...
maybe because there was less pressure on him when he wrote the books...
