A Frown Like Alice

Horror Story For Stephen King

He is one of the world's top authors, but not everyone recognises Stephen King in Alice Springs, the Outback landmark made famous by the Nevil Shute bestseller `A Town Like Alice’. The horror maestro was actually mistaken for a vandal in a bookshop. Customers at a Dymocks store raised the alarm this week, after King was seen signing several of his books. Store manager Bev Ellis said the onlookers thought he was vandalising the books. But the holidaying horror novelist was soon identified.
