Carrie White is an outcast at school and lives under the oppressive rule of her religiously fanatic mother. Though she’s often bullied by her classmates, Carrie has a secret gift: she can move objects with her mind. From a young age, she’s struggled with this power, unsure whether it’s a blessing or a curse. When a moment of kindness from a classmate offers her hope that she might finally experience a normal life, she believes the nightmare of taunts and cruelty is behind her. But a cruel prank changes everything, turning her extraordinary gift into a deadly weapon of vengeance—one so destructive that the town of Chamberlain may never recover.
With this 50th Anniversary Edition, Carrie continues to haunt and thrill readers, cementing Stephen King’s place as the master of modern horror.
