It suffers the same issue that most of King's books do, but to a lesser degree.

The last 20-30 pages are always serious "WTF?" moments for me. I haven't read it in probably 20 years, but didn't a damn turtle eat him? And if my memory serves, the deadlights did manifest themselves as a spider, correct? So the weirdness of the stupid spider in the show is a result of the source material going batshit.

I'm not sure why the hell King needed to make him into an pan-dimensional alien demon (or was it pan-dimensional demon alien...I got confused somewhere along the way) but then again, the guy is a hell of a lot better storyteller than I'll ever be so I guess I should defer.
