En y resongeant par la suite, Louis situa le début du cauchemar à l'instant précis où l'on amena à l'infirmerie ce garçon de vingt ans qui était en train de mourir, la cervelle en bouillie et les yeux ouverts... Ou bien, peut-être, quinze jours plus tôt : ils venaient d'emménager à Ludow, c'était la rentrée des classes, et Ellie avait hâte de leur raconter sa première journée d'école. Louis était allé coucher le bébé au premier étage, et il avait eu cet étrange pressentiment : quelque chose les menaçait. Une force inconnue, terrifiante mais irrésistible... En fait, Rachel avait raison : ce cimetière d'animaux, à deux pas de la maison, c'était morbide, C'était mauvais pour les enfants. Pourtant, l'endroit était si beau, si attirant. Une sorte de cercle magique... ( )
Un bon livre d'épouvante, palpitant, bouleversant. Un livre qu'il est difficile de refermer une fois qu'on l'a entamé, et qu'il est difficile d'oublier une fois lu. ( )
Je trouve que Simetierre est incontestablement le meilleur livre de Stephen King. L'auteur s'interroge sur les réactions que peuvent avoir les individus quand ils perdent un être qui leur est cher.Cette trame donne naissance à un récit haletant et à une fin surprenante et particulièrement réussie.

Jesus said to them, "Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go, that I may awake him out of his sleep."
Then the disciples looked at each other, and some smiled because they did not know Jesus had spoken in a figure. "Lord, if he sleeps, he shall do well."
So then Jesus spoke to them more plainly, "Lazarus is dead, yes...nevertheless let us go to him." —JOHN'S GOSPEL (paraphrase)
When Jesus came to Bethany, he found that Lazarus had lain in the grave four days already. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she hurried to meet him.
"Lord," she said, "if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But now you are here, and I know that whatever you ask of God, God will grant."
Jesus therefore, groaning inside of himself and full of trouble, came to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone had been raised against the mouth. "Roll away the stone," Jesus said.
Martha said, "Lord, by this time he will have begun to rot. He has been dead four days."...
And when he had prayed awhile, Jesus raised his voice and cried, "Lazarus, come forth!" And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes; and his face was bound about with a napkin.
Jesus said to them, "Loose him and let him go." —JOHN'S GOSPEL (paraphrase)
"I only just thought of it," she said hysterically. "Why didn't I think of it before? Why didn't you think of it?" "Think of what?" he questioned. "The other two wishes," she replied rapidly. "We've only had one." "Was that not enough?" he demanded fiercely. "No," she cried triumphantly: "we'll have one more. Go down and get it quickly, and wish our boy alive again." —W.W. JACOBS ("The Monkey's Paw")

Louis Creed, who had lost his father at three and who had never known a grandfather, never expected to find a father as he entered his middle age, but that was exactly what happened...although he called this man a friend, as a grown man must do when he finds the man who should have been his father relatively late in life.

"It's probably wrong to believe there can be any limit to the horror which the human mind can experience. On the contrary, it sees that some exponential effect begins to obtain as deeper and deeper darkness falls-as little as one may like to admit it, human experience tends, in a good many ways, to support the idea that when the nightmare grows black enough, horror spawns horror, one coincidental evil begets other, often more deliberate evils, until finally blackness seems to cover everything. And the most terrifying question of all may be just how much horror the human mind can stand and still maintain a wakeful, staring, unrelenting sanity. That such events have their own Rube Goldberg absurdity goes almost without saying. At some point, it all starts to become rather funny. That may be the point at which saity begins either to save itself or to buckle and break down; that point at which one's sense of humor begins to reassert itself."
