Last Updated on July 30, 2021

So this is cool! Popular YouTuber Lindsay Ellis has partnered with PBS hosting their ongoing literature-based show IT'S LIT! Even better, this episode is specifically talking about one of the most influential horror writers of all time, Stephen King! Now you can watch the video at the top of the article!

Here is the official description: 

Few writers have had the sheer staying power, popularity, and prolific output as Stephen King. From insatiably flesh-hungry clowns and sentient cars to telekinetic teenagers and mystical gunslingers, if there’s one author who has taken up valuable real estate in that part of our imaginations, it’s Stephen King. But it’s not just his monsters that have lasting power—it’s also the very human and very psychological elements in his work that linger. So come with me, Constant Reader, while I lead you through the dark and twisted world of Uncle Stevie, the King of Horror… Hosted by Lindsay Ellis and Princess Weekes, It’s Lit! is a show about our favorite books, genres, and why we love to read. It’s Lit has been made possible in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities: Exploring the human endeavor.

Meanwhile, there are many Stephen King adaptations are on the way, including CBS All Access' big-budget THE STAND remake premiering December 17th! And you can check out more of Lindsay Ellis' content on her own official channel here
