Four Past Midnight is a collection of novellas written by Stephen King in 1988 and 1989 and published in August 1990.[1] It is his second book of this type, the first one being Different Seasons. The collection won the Bram Stoker Award in 1990 for Best Collection[2] and was nominated for a Locus Award in 1991.[3] In the introduction, King says that, while a collection of four novellas like Different Seasons, this book is more strictly horror with elements of the supernatural.[4]
