#hint:

A few people have caught onto the fact that these are all Stephen King characters. I should preface by saying I have only read Misery, Pet Sematary, Cujo, Christine, The Shining, Carrie, Under the Dome, Sleeping Beauties, and Insomnia, so my repertoire was limited to characters in those books.

Hank: Jack Torrance from The Shining

Reasoning: …ok look it’s just because they’re both alcoholics (Jack more-so in the book) BUT Jack is really recognizable. I almost went with Louis Creed from Pet Sematary but that felt too mean and frankly unguessable off of looks alone.

Sumo: Cujo from Cujo

Reasoning: Stephen King didn’t make any other Saint Bernard characters.

I haven’t seen the movie but this pic looks insane 😭 poor Cujo

And for arguably the hardest out of the three:

Connor: Church from Pet Sematary

Reasoning: They both (depending on your playthrough or headcanons) are brought back from the dead, but they come back a bit different than before. Church also gets neutered and Louis starts thinking how Church isn’t a man anymore, he’s an it now, and so on lmao. And they both (again, depends) are hit by trucks. Also this quote:

Church was a big stretch, I admit. Danny from The Shining would’ve been fun (his psychic visions are comparable to Connor’s reconstructions and preconstructions; they both have an outside presence in their head through Tony or Amanda).

My personal top choice would’ve been Paul Sheldon from Misery (held captive by an obsessive woman; pressured to complete his work under duress) cuz that is my favorite SK book, but I was not about to draw crippled legs 💀
