    Question Suggest some good titles with ghostly activity as the central focus.

    I'm planning to buy a few King novels please suggest me some good, scary titles with Paranormal Activities(Particularly dealing with Ghosts, Poltergeists, etc.).
    I have read Pet Cemetery, Carrie, The Shining, Salem's Lot, Misery, Everything's Eventual.
    I know not all of them are related to ghosts but now I'm in the mood for reading some.
    I'm not really interested in the Dark Tower Series or The Stand as of now. Please give some suggestions.
    Thank You!

    "It" is one of the best.

    Thank you for the reply but I should have mentioned I already know the story of IT. I watched the movie.
    And everyone else Thank you for your replies as well. I was thinking of Bag Of Bones myself but wasn't sure if it was good enough. Well now I guess I know better. So I'll go buy Bag Of Bones.

    Duma Key might also fit your criteria.

    Watching the movie is not the same as knowing the story of "IT."
    The movie is nothing in comparison to the book, it barely covers the minutest of details...seriously.
    If you want to read a scary King book then "IT" is the one to go with, doesn't really get much scarier than that.

    Then you have absolutely NO idea of the story...start your quest here...

    Duma Key (as Ms. Mod said), 1408, Desperation/The Regulators, From a Buick 8, Cell. Cujo is another good one, although it's not a ghost story.
