I reckon this story is more about the boys fear of his grandma than the grandma herself.
Like all stephen king horror stories it has the tried and tested "what if X was evil" premise.
I think most kids are scared of things or people that their parents say are fine, and in this story that's his grandma.
Obviouly this is the steven king-verse where te kid was right to be scared.
Works really well IMO.
