Sounds like he views reading as a chore and not a form of entertainment. It may be that he hasn't found a book that clicks with him yet. Try focusing on his interests. Does he have a favorite movie? If its been adapted from a book, it might keep his interest.

Take clues from how he spends his free time. What kind of games does he play? Both Halo and Warcraft have their own line of books. I think it boils down to he need to find reading entertaining, and only he will be able to make that distinction.

He are some choices to try out:

That's from that book of scary short stories, right? There was that guy who lived in the attic, the Indian dude with his fiery feet of flames, a trucker that used his high beams to save some chick from a dude hiding in her car, and some others that I can't remember. WTF was the name of that book?

EDIT: It was actually the first result on a search for book of scary short stories.

It was Scary Stories to Tell In The Dark, one of several books in that series. As luck would have it, the referenced story is available to read on Google Books here.

I remember those stories; good God they were scary! Why the hell my elementary school library, I don't know, but I thank them nonetheless.

Haha I can imagine. I don't know it but good luck in your search. Was it possibly from any of the scary stories to tell in the dark books? I know they had some stories along those lines

Possibly this one, or one of the sequels from the same author? http://www.amazon.com/Scary-Stories-Tell-Dark-Collected/dp/0064401707
