The Shining was a book that terrified me. Stephen King really knew how to create the atmosphere of insanity and impending doom. A scene in particular that strikes me as the most frightening is when Danny is on the playground, in the tunnel and he hears noises behind him. Then with the hedge animals moving closer and closer to him. It was utterly terrifying.
