[edit]Pet Sematary
[edit]The horror novel Pet Sematary by Stephen King takes its name from a misspelled sign in a pet cemetery. Using Wikipedia and Google Books I was able to find how this was translated into some languages.
German: Haustier-Fritof - Haustier-Friedhof
Italian: Cimmitero deli animali - Cimitero degli animali
French: Simetierre - Cimetière d'animaux
Spanish: Semeterio de mascotas - Cementerio de mascotas
Portuguese: Samitério de Animais - Cemitério
Czech: Řbitov zviřátek - Hřbitov zviřátek
Polish: Smętarz dla zwierzaków - Cmentarz
