1408 是5年前的作品，收在有声读物里Blood and Smoke
看看SK怎么说 ，下面是他在Everything's Eventual 对1408的说明
As well as the ever-popular premature burial, every writer of
shock/suspense tales should write at least one story about the
Ghostly Room At The Inn. This is my version of that story. The
only unusual thing about it is that I never intended to finish it. I
wrote the first three or four pages as part of an appendix for my On
Writing book, wanting to show readers how a story evolves from
first draft to second. Most of all, I wanted to provide concrete examples
of the principles I’d been blathering about in the text. But
something nice happened: the story seduced me, and I ended up
writing all of it. I think that what scares us varies widely from one
individual to the next (I’ve never been able to understand why
Peruvian boomslangs give some people the creeps, for example), but
this story scared me while I was working on it. It originally
appeared as part of an audio compilation called Blood and
Smoke, and the audio scared me even more. Scared the hell out of
me. But hotel rooms are just naturally creepy places, don’t you
think? I mean, how many people have slept in that bed before you?
How many of them were sick? How many were losing their minds?
How many were perhaps thinking about reading a few final verses
from the Bible in the drawer of the nightstand beside them and
then hanging themselves in the closet beside the TV? Brrrr. In any
case, let’s check in, shall we? Here’s your key . . . and you might
take time to notice what those four innocent numbers add up to.
It’s just down the hall.
