Barnes & Noble Stephen Kings "novelized" TV series is based on The Kingdom -- a soapy Danish miniseries from 1994 that blended drama with the paranormal element of ghosts -- created by filmmaking provocateur Lars von Trier. King had a hand in writing every episode of this Americanized version, which took to the air in March 2004. Jack Coleman stars as Peter, an artist who is admitted to Kingdom Hospital in a coma after being hit by a van. When Peter awakens, he discovers he can communicate with the spirits that inhabit the hospital. Diane Ladd portrays Sally Druse, a patient with psychic abilities who can also hear the spirits and persuades Dr. Hook (Andrew McCarthy) to help her identify the ghosts. The cast is rounded out by Ed Begley Jr. as hospital administrator Jesse James, and Bruce Davison as chief neurologist Dr. Stegman. King and co-writer Rick Dooling had even delivered the outlines for Season 2s scripts before an executive shakeup at ABC led to the cancellation of the series in July 2004. Fans will find all 13 episodes of the series in this set, including: "Deaths Kingdom," wherein Druse holds a séance to find out who -- or what -- is haunting the hospital; "Hooks Kingdom," which finds the staff battling the violent spirit of a teenage boy; and "Heartless," in which the staff learns about the 1869 fire that killed a number of children on the hospital grounds.
