b.
The story was inspired to
Stephen King
by actual events that occurred while he was living in Orington, Maine with his family. King recalled that while living there his daughters cat was killed in the highway. Much of Ellie Creeds emotional outburst was taken directly from Kings own grief-stricken daughter. King also remembered that once his youngest son had nearly ran into the road while a truck was speeding down it, much like Gage does in film.

Also there was an actual pet cemetery in the woods behind the King house, which became the basis for the one in the novel.
