1. The Stand 2. Randall Flagg 3. Night Shift 4. Danny Torrance 5. Cujo 6. Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption 7. Malachi Boardman 8. Carrie 9. Paul Sheldon 10. Thinner 4 His fist name is Danny, right? I’m remembering the Shining correctly, right? But, him, the kid from the Shining. 7 How sad is it I can’t think of any male King characters outside Children of the Corn who aren’t either pre-pubescent or adults? ---

> [@tarragon918](#): > > Okay, for #7 and #8, which appear to be the same question, I took one as female and the other as male. Same, though I read them in the other order…mostly because I saw ‘female’ in 8 which I was entering Carrie for 7, and thought that meant I’d misread 7. \>\_\> ---

I let this one run two nights hoping to get 50 responses. Oh well! I was generous with some of the answers - I changed “Skeleton Keys” to “Skeleton Crew,” for example. **BethCro** was the only one who didn’t have male and female answers for #7&8 - I gave her the top male answer.
