ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Cell by Stephen King plunges into chaos when a mysterious signal, known as the Pulse, is transmitted through cell phones, instantly turning most users into violent, mindless beings. The story follows Clayton Riddell, a graphic novelist in Boston when the Pulse hits. Amidst the widespread pandemonium, Clay's immediate concern is to find his estranged wife and young son. He teams up with other survivors as they navigate a dangerous world overrun by the "phone-crazies". The novel explores themes of sudden societal collapse, the dangers of technology, and the primal instincts for survival and family connection in the face of unimaginable horror.
