Setting/Places

The Overlook Hotel
Built in the early part of the twentieth century, the Overlook hotel has been repeatedly sold and purchased, resulting in a vast history of intrigue and death. The ghosts of the Overlook's past come to life in the minds of the Torrance family because of Danny's "shine". This eventually causes complete breakdown of the family and of the family's mental state. In the end Jack ends up frozen.

237 there is a very specific room that Danny and the cook talked about. The cook tells Danny not to go to that room and he ends up going into it anyways. The room is haunted by a older women who died in the bath tub. There is a really cool scene where Jack sees the women as a beautiful model looking women and he kisses her. As he looks in the mirror he sees that he is kissing a rotting old women.
