One notable aspect is the intense atmosphere. King is masterful at creating a sense of dread. The Overlook Hotel seems to come alive with malevolence. Another is the complex characters, like Jack Torrance whose slow descent into madness is both terrifying and fascinating.
Well, some Stephen King novels are more action - packed in terms of the horror elements. 'The Shining' is more of a slow - burn. It builds up the horror gradually, which is different from, say, 'It' which has more of a fast - paced, multiple - threat kind of horror. But they all share King's ability to create characters you really care about.
