Character Information

Stephen King is an American author most famous for his horror novels and short stories. Among his best-known works are The Shining and Carrie.
History
Stephen King appeared at a book convention in Springfield. Marge Simpson went up to his table, and, making conversation, asked King what "tale of horror and the macabre" he was working on. King replied that he didn't feel like writing horror at the moment, so he was working on a biography of Benjamin Franklin, where, after discovering electricity, Franklin used it to torture small animals and green mountain men. As King described his biography-in-progress, his voice grew more menacing until he finished by saying, "And that key he tied to a kite? It opened the gates of Hell!"
After King was finished, Marge asked King to let her know when he got back to writing horror. His voice back to normal, King replied that he would and wrote himself a reminder note to do so.
Behind the Laughter
- King's mention of Franklin torturing "green mountain men" in his biography-in-progress is a reference to the Green Mountain Boys, a militia organization that was contemporary with Franklin and fought in several battles of the American Revolutionary War.
