Description
Just After Sunset is Stephen King’s fifth major short-story collection, published in 2008. The collection gathers thirteen stories (plus a special introductory piece in some editions) that blend horror, suspense, psychological drama, supernatural fiction, and dark fantasy. Many of the stories originally appeared in prominent magazines before being collected into the volume.
A recurring theme throughout the collection is King’s fascination with ordinary people encountering strange, unsettling, or life-changing events. Rather than focusing solely on monsters and supernatural threats, many stories explore grief, aging, mortality, coincidence, and the hidden darkness within everyday life.
A superb collection of haunting tales, imagination, and quiet terror.
