The original name was used for the 1980 film's sitting room, which is a room where guests can relax and read or chat. The Gold Room is presumed to be the most haunted room in the hotel, besides Room 217/237.

Description: The Colorado Lounge is a large room inside of the Overlook Hotel. The Colorado Lounge is based on the similarly themed Great Lounge in the Ahwahnee Hotel. The Colorado Lounge was filmed at Stage 3 at Elstree Studios. The set required 700,000 volts of electricity to power the set. On January 24, 1979, the heat from the voltage caused the set to catch fire, which also caught Stage 3 on fire, burning it to the ground. It was later rebuilt the same year.
Description: Who isn't spooked by The Shining? When the audience first sees the creepy Grady twins standing at the end of that long hallway in front of Danny on his tricycle, it's one of the weirdest and greatest moments in cinema. One of my signature art styles is to superimpose two images over each other, which I did here with the iconic carpet pattern in the hallways of the Overlook Hotel over the silhouette of our young hero, Danny Torrance.
Description: The hedge maze refers to the labyrinth of hedges found at the Overlook Hotel in the 1980 film version of The Shining. The 1977 novel and the 1997 miniseries versions of The Shining use moving topiary animals in place of the maze. In 2015, The Stanley Hotel, the original hotel which Stephen King used as a basis when he first wrote The Shining, installed its own hedge maze in order to pay homage to its Shining roots. Before this, it had neither a maze nor the signature topiary animals author Stephen King once wrote about.
Description: Danny Torrance has a vision of the word REDRUM appearing on a wall, where it then transforms into the word MURDER, directly below the word REDRUM. He is aware of this as he saw this in a vision prior to arriving at the Overlook Hotel. His first vision is of the hotel, where "a single word appeared in green fire ... REDRUM". Tony also shows Danny the word “REDRUM” “flashing off and on” in the bathroom mirror and the word murder is not seen in a mirror. Murder is seen in the reflection of “a huge clock in a glass bowl materialized in front of [the bathroom mirror]”.
Description: Sidewinder is a fictional town featured in the Stephen King novel The Shining as well as the 1980 film adaptation of King's book, The Shining, directed by Stanley Kubrick and the 1997 television miniseries, The Shining. Sidewinder is located in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado not far from the Overlook Hotel. The Torrance family drove through Sidewinder on their way to the Overlook. After being snowed in, Wendy Torrance maintained contact with the local Forest rangers, who were based out of Sidewinder. It is also the hometown of Annie Wilkes, the antagonist of Stephen King's novel, Misery.
