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: 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: 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: In The Shining, Stovington is the fictional prep school in Stovington, Vermont where Jack Torrance worked as a teacher until he lost his job. He is seen wearing his Stovington Eagles t-shirt while working as the off-season caretaker of the isolated Overlook Hotel. Stovington. In other novels in the King Multiverse, the Centers for Disease Control had a facility there and Stuart Redman was taken there from Atlanta. Chuck Chatsworth attended the school and Arnie Cunningham drove through the town in Christine.
Description: The Gold Room, or The Gold Ballroom is a large ballroom contained within the Overlook Hotel. The Red Bathroom is attached to the Gold Room. In the book, it was named The Colorado Lounge. 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.
