The Boogeyman
The Boogeyman, a short story created by Stephen King, was originally published in 1973 in the magazine Cavalier before it was once again published in King’s short fiction collection, The NightShift. The story’s premise differs quite a bit from Savage’s adaptation, but don’t worry there will be no spoilers here.
It was first adapted into a short film back in 1982 by Jeff Schiro but there haven’t been any other direct adaptations attempted. Although the premise has been loosely borrowed by several other horror movies throughout the years.
The film is set to hit theaters on June 2, 2023, and we are eagerly waiting to scare our butts off. If there’s anything we love, it’s horror movies that really give us goosebumps, and make a sleep with a night light for a good week or so. At least that’s my opinion, bring on the horror.
