Storm of the Century, alternatively known as Stephen King's Storm of the Century, is a 1999 American horror television miniseries written by Stephen King and directed by Craig R. Baxley. Unlike many other television adaptations of King's work, Storm of the Century was not based on a novel but was an original screenplay written by the author and directly produced for television. King described the screenplay as a "novel for television".[2] The screenplay was published as a mass-market book in February 1999 prior to the TV broadcast of the miniseries.[3]
King has called Storm of the Century his personal favorite of all the TV productions related to his works.[4]
