“The Blue Air Compressor”
1971-01-00
short story
By Stephen King

Synopsis

A writer visits the home of an old woman, but she is not what she seems.

History

First publication: Onan Magazine, January 1971

Review

One of King’s early works and seems more experimental than other works I’ve read by King so far. The story is very creepy and even has some feeling of H. P. Lovecraft in the idea and the plot. Good and recommended for the King fan.
