The first clip from Ste🃏phen King on Screen, a new documentary described as "the ultimate guide to the King of your nightmares", is here.

The brief snippet features Mike Flanagan –🧸 a longtime King aficionado and Haunting of Hill House creator – discussing the "terrific female characters" of the writer’s work, as well as the impact certainꦐ women have had on King’s life.

Flanagan, who brought King’s horr﷽or novel Gerald’s Game to life on the bi෴g screen back in 2017 and then Doctor Sleep in 2019, also talks about the role King's wife Tabitha had in shaping (and saving) one of the author's most iconic works in Carrie.

"If you listen to him talk about Tabitha and you realize that she pulled the manuscript of Carrie out of the trashcan when he threw it in there in complete despair; when you imagine her being the first set of eyes on one of his stories and getting him that first critical feedback… it’s very 🌄e𓆏asy to see where he gets a lot of that fortitude and mettle that his heroines have," Flanagan explains.
