i think its called pet sematary not cemetary because the sign was written by children.

@hefestus because it was a cemetary used by children to bury pets and children have a knack for mis-spelling words :) hope that helped

Before i start reading Stephen King's books, i've already knew him through numerous movies created based on his books. I think i watched more movies based on his books compare to actually reading the books. But i start reading the books last year and i found that it is way more awsome to read than to watch. Pet Sematary is the best so far! It really gives me the chill especially the part when Jud is telling Louis how they went to meet Timmy Baterman...It was darn scary...i could imagine the grin that Timmy had on his face just the way Stephen King described it...Brilliant! Another part was when Jud talked to himself describing the accident involving Gage...it really took my breath away...

I would like to know why he called Sematary instead of Cemetary... whatever! It's great history at all!
