Set in the fictional town of Castle Rock, Maine The #1 national bestseller for Stephen King's rabid fans, Cujo "hits the jugular" ( The New York Times ) with the story of a friendly Saint Bernard that is bitten by a sick bat. Get ready to meet the most hideous menace ever to savage the flesh and devour the mind.Outside a peaceful town in central Maine, a monster is waiting. Cujo is a two-hundred-pound Saint Bernard, the best friend Brett Camber has ever had. One day, Cujo chases a rabbit into a cave inhabited by sick bats and emerges as something new altogether. Meanwhile, Vic and Donna Trenton, and their young son Tad, move to Maine. They are seeking peace and quiet, but life in this small town is not what it seems. As Tad tries to fend off the terror that comes to him at night from his bedroom closet, and as Vic and Donna face their own nightmare of a marriage on the rocks, there is no way they can know that a monster, infinitely sinister, waits in the daylight. What happens to Cujo, how he becomes a horrifying vortex inescapably drawing in all the people around him, makes for one of the most heart-stopping novels Stephen King has ever written. "A genuine page-turner that grabs you and holds you and won't let go" ( Chattanooga Times ), Cujo will forever change how you view man's best friend.

When Cujo, the enormous Saint Bernard who happens to be the beloved pet of the Cambers, is bitten by a bat after chasing a rabbit into an underground cave, no one is prepared for the terror to come. Having won a large lottery, Chastity plans to finally leave her abusive husband by packing up herself and her 12-year-old son, Brett, and spending a couple of weeks with her sister who lives in another state. Elsewhere, another marriage is also in trouble. Donna Trenton loves her husband, Victor, but she has been unfaithful. While Vic is away on a week-long business trip, Donna decides to conclude an afternoon of running errands with her small son, Tad, by finally taking their Ford Pinto, which has seen better days, to be repaired by their new mechanic, who just happens to be Joe Camber. What she will find waiting for her and Tad is a nightmare! Due to the bat bite, poor Cujo has transformed into a raging killing machine because of rabies. Joe was unfortunate enough to be the last victim of his murderous wrath... so far. Stranded on the property owned by the Cambers by their wreck of a vehicle, Donna quickly realizes that the only way to protect herself and Tad from becoming the next horrified prey of the mad dog is to keep them safely locked away in the car until they can find a way to summon help. But the car is slowly becoming a sweltering death trap in the stifling summer heat, and Donna quickly realizes that if she does not soon find a way to destroy the dog and save herself and her son, their only refuge from the rampaging monster will quickly become their tomb. Fans and critics widely agree that Cujo is one of the most terrifying novels from the King of Horror! If you are a horror fan or a fan of Stephen King or both, do not miss this bloodcurdling shocker!

Classic, simple horror
Who knew you could make a rabid dog so suspenseful and terrifying? I first read this when I was in high school and it's been a favorite of mine in the horror genre ever since. Very simple premise, amazing suspense that keeps you on the edge of your seat, and a terrifying dog. What's not to like?

Bad Dog!
Who hasn't met a Cujo like dog? The realism of the story is what makes it so scary. It reads like something that could happen. Its actually a great example of realistic horror writing. The idea of making the dog the villian was brilliant.
