Mile 81

King's build-up at the rest stop was so atmospheric, but I wondered if some parts could have been more fleshed out or if it was meant to keep us on edge.

The mundane location made the terror feel more real, but I'm curious if the author had a specific reason for choosing this spot or if it was just to heighten isolation.

The ambiguity adds to the horror, but I wonder what others think about what the entity represents or if it's left intentionally mysterious.
