Shirley Jackson’s The Lottery is Coming Back to Haunt Us On Screen

Stephen King works are being adapted for film and TV at a blinding pace, which is a rapturous delight that I vow never to take for granted. Yet, if there is another author who I would like to see commemorated in such a way, it would be Shirley Jackson. Luckily, the powers that be seem to agree with me. Jackson’s short story masterpiece The Lottery is set to become a feature film according to Deadline.
