The Shining’s Overlook Hotel

Stephen King published his third novel, The Shining, in 1977 and the book quickly became the iconic horror author’s first bestseller. Adapted for the screen by director Stanley Kubrick in 1980, The Shining has since become one of King’s most widely known and applauded literary works.

Following Jack Torrance, his wife Wendy, and their son Danny to the grand, but remote Overlook Hotel during a harsh Colorado winter, The Shining explores both psychological and physical horror. After accepting the job of caretaker at the Overlook, Jack, a troubled writer and recovering alcoholic, begins to experience symptoms of cabin fever while Danny sees a number of ghosts throughout the grounds of the hotel. As tensions tighten amongst the small family, Jack’s anger issues and drinking problem making him increasingly irritable, the weather worsens and the Torrances become trapped in their own isolated nightmare.
