Last week,?? ??? ?? Stephen King took to X (formerly Twitter) to share some Dark Tower fan art — along with a comment that immediately caught fans' attention.
"Mid-world is still there," wrote the author, referring to the universe in which his eight-book series is set. "The tower still stands."

The image showed a road sign reading "Crimson King Dr" (the Crimson King is one of the main antagonists in the books).

"He lives," King wrote.
Given that the Crimson King's fate at the end of the series is uncertain – due to various complicated factors that would require an article of their own to explain – King's comment is especially interesting.
Is he just teasing us with all these Dark Tower posts, or are they building to something? News of the Mike Flanagan TV adaptation? Or could there be another book in the works?
It wouldn't necessarily be that surprising. King likes returning to previous characters and worlds, and has already returned to the Dark Tower universe with another novel – The Wind Through the Keyhole– that was published eight years after the core series had ended.
There's no mention of anything Dark Tower-related on his official site, but maybe that'll soon change.
