Trivia: “Salem’s Lot” was a 1975 release from which author?
Kurt Vonnegut
Stephen King
Toni Morrison
Gore Vidal
The correct answer is Stephen King
So why is this answer correct? : Preceded only by the book “Carrie,” “Salem’s Lot” was just the second novel by horror author Stephen King. He conceived of the idea while teaching “Dracula” to a high school English class, and thus the concept of vampires appearing in modern-day New England was born. The book was adapted into a miniseries in 1979 and a movie version is making its way to theaters in 2023.
