Public Tour

King’s Derry, Maine Tour

Each tour is hosted by a member of the Tinker family. We have been featured on A&E Biography, City Confidential, People Magazine, Martha Stewart’s Living, and many other national media outlets. As the owners of the original Betts Bookstore, we has over 20 years of experience selling Stephen King books and memorabilia, and are recognized as one of the leading experts on King lore and legend.

Stu started doing Stephen King Tours for King fans and researchers over 18 years ago and has enjoyed introducing many new readers to the area that has inspired so many great books and movies. Stu and Penney’s son Jamie (after retiring from 26 years in the Navy), has now joined SK Tours as a guide, and shares his vast knowledge of the Stephen King world with our guests also.
