After the huge success of his novel The Shining in 1977 Night Shift was released, and included a selection of stories that King had published in the late ’60s and early ’70s in such magazines as Cavalier, Penthouse, Ubris, Cosmopolitan, Gallery, and Maine. King is in top form in this anthology, which was originally published in 1978. This summer Vintage & Anchor Books released a reprint edition of Stephen King’s classic short story collection Night Shift, and the 20 stories included in this volume are just as creepy and crawly as ever. ![]()
