    Carrie: The Musical was also around that time. It was one of the biggest flops in Broadway history. I would not be at all shocked if cocaine played a big role in Stephen King okaying a musical based on Carrie.

      Cocaine “Hey Stephen.”

      Stephen King “Yeah, cocaine?”

      Cocaine “You like musicals, right?”

      Stephen King “I do now.”

      Cocaine “You know how people are trying to get Carrie turned into a Broadway musical?”

      Stephen King “Yeah…”

      Cocaine “You should a okay and use the money.”

      Stephen King “What should I buy?”

      Cocaine “More cocaine.”

      Stephen King “Damn good idea.”
