Pet Sematary is the story of Louis and Rachel Creed, who move to a small town in Maine with their children Gage and Ellie. After their cat is hit by a truck, the Creeds' neighbor Jud tells Louis that if he buries it behind the local pet cemetery, it will come back to life. When tragedy strikes the Creed family, Louis is tempted to use the cemetery again, but this time, the stakes are higher. This horror novel examines themes of death and wish fulfillment.
