Podcasts about Jack Torrance

The Scariest Movie EVER Made? Well upon its initial release forty-five years ago, not many critics saw it that way INCLUDING the author of the original novel which this film was based on, Stephen King.  But over time, this psychological thriller directed by the late, great Stanley Kubrick (2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, Eyes Wide Shut) has garnerned not only a devoted following but a never-ending stream of speculation about what it meant.  Many love it for the memorable main lead performance by Oscar-winner Jack Nicholson (Chinatown, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, Batman)  as Jack Torrance, an aspiring writer whose family ends up situated at a VERY remote location known as the Overlook Hotel....he's an aspiring writer but as the winter progresses, he starts to lose his mind.  Also with him are his beleaguered wife Wendy played by the late, great Shelley Duvall (Popeye, 3 Women, Roxanne) and their young son Danny (Danny Lloyd) who has begun to experience a sort of psychic power known as.....THE SHINING. :o Also co-starring Scatman Crothers, Joe Turkel, and Barry Nelson, this horror classic has launched spin-off documentaries, weak imitations, and loads of memes - let's head to the Overlook Hotel! Host & Editor: Geoff GershonEditor: Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

In this episode of Terror Talk Podcast, we dive deep into the eerie world of The Shining — both Stephen King's original novel and Stanley Kubrick's polarizing 1980 film adaptation. They share a title… but tell two very different stories. We compare and contrast the drastically different portrayals of Jack Torrance, the mystery of the Overlook Hotel, and how each version tackles psychological horror. No wonder King famously hated the film — and we unpack why.We also talk about how King's book lays a far stronger foundation for Doctor Sleep, and lightly touch on original documentaries that offer insight into Kubrick's filmmaking process.So grab your axe and your typewriter (but maybe not both), and join us for a fascinating, spooky analysis of one of horror's most iconic stories.Instagram: @terrortalkpodcastYouTube: TerrorTalk PodcastFacebook: Halloween All Year LongTikTok: @dark.psychology.girlsAll music for this episode is by Mannequin Uprising.

This week, Chris and Jay explore the fine line between control and chaos. They kick things off with a raw and real conversation about parenting styles—how different approaches shape kids, the pressure of doing it “right,” and the madness that sometimes comes with the territory. Then, they revisit the psychological horror classic The Shining, unpacking Jack Torrance's spiral, Stanley Kubrick's unsettling direction, and what makes this film a timeless descent into darkness.To close things out, the boys reflect on Bo Nickal's shocking UFC loss and how even the most dominant athletes can find themselves lost in the storm.This one is a little hectic, but is still Better Than Average.

Esplora il mondo inquietante e disturbante di Shining di Stanley Kubrick, un capolavoro cinematografico che continua a tormentare il pubblico ancora oggi. Dall'enigmatico e isolato Overlook Hotel alla mente tormentata di Jack Torrance, ci addentreremo nei segreti più oscuri e nelle teorie che circondano questo classico dell'horror.  Shining non è un semplice film horror. È un enigma visivo, un labirinto di simboli nascosti, di messaggi subliminali, di significati occulti. Per decenni, critici e appassionati hanno cercato di decifrarne i segreti, e più si guarda in profondità, più si scopre che nulla è lasciato al caso. Ogni inquadratura, ogni dettaglio della scenografia, ogni battuta sembra nascondere qualcosa di più. Ci sono teorie che parlano di riferimenti alla massoneria, alla numerologia, ai rituali esoterici e oscure confessioni del regista. Altri vedono nel film un'allegoria dei traumi della storia americana, dalla colonizzazione ai programmi segreti del governo. Ma qual è la verità? Qual era l'intento di Kubrick? E se Shining non fosse solo un film, ma un vero e proprio messaggio in codice destinato solo a chi sa leggerlo? L'Inspiegabile Podcast è una serie originale ideata, scritta e condotta da Luca Parrella.  Produzione e Sound Design di Matteo D'Alessandro ⁠https://www.matteodalessandro.com Ascoltala su YouTube o su tutte le principali piattaforme di musica e Podcast Seguimi anche sui social

We begin this discussion by welcoming our listeners to another episode of the Fully-Booked Podcast, where we delve into the spine-chilling realm of winter horror. As we reach the midpoint of February, the cold remains a dominant presence, and with that in mind, we decide to explore horror stories set in winter landscapes.Winter horror is particularly effective in creating a sense of isolation and claustrophobia, trapping characters in dire circumstances, and heightening tension and anxiety. The conversation leads us to consider the best time to read winter horror - whether it should be reserved for the cold months to enhance immersion or if it remains just as impactful year-round.The Power of Winter in Horror NarrativesWe think that winter settings amplify horror elements by isolating characters through impassable snowstorms and relentless cold. This limitation of movement, whether due to severe weather or environmental obstacles, creates a heightened sense of vulnerability. Horror thrives on fear, desperation, and entrapment, and winter conditions intensify these emotions. The characters are not only battling supernatural or psychological threats but also nature itself.As we examine various books in the winter horror genre, we see common themes emerge. The environment itself becomes a malevolent force, exacerbating already dire situations. The cold, darkness, and loneliness intertwine with the horrors lurking within, making these stories particularly gripping.Winter Horror Book RecommendationsThe Shining by Stephen KingWe begin our exploration with The Shining, one of the most famous winter horror novels. It follows Jack Torrance and his family as they become the winter caretakers of the Overlook Hotel, an isolated, snowbound resort. The novel masterfully uses the winter setting to amplify Jack's descent into madness, highlighting themes of addiction and personal demons.Stephen King's own experiences with alcoholism make this story deeply personal, and the setting enhances the feelings of being trapped - both physically and psychologically. The supernatural elements of the Overlook Hotel prey on these vulnerabilities, turning the setting itself into an antagonist.The hosts note the differences between King's novel and Stanley Kubrick's film adaptation, which King famously disliked. While the film focuses on a more straightforward horror narrative, the novel explores deeper psychological and thematic layers, particularly addiction and the cycle of abuse.The Terror by Dan SimmonsThe Terror offers a blend of historical fiction and supernatural horror, fictionalizing the real-life doomed Franklin Expedition of the 1840s.Trapped in the Arctic ice, the crew faces not only starvation and scurvy but also an unknown supernatural force lurking in the landscape. The novel excels at conveying the utter desolation of the frozen Arctic, where isolation and hopelessness become the crew's greatest enemies. The hosts praise Simmons' detailed research and ability to make the cold itself feel like a character, evoking a profound sense of unease and dread.Near the Bone by Christina HenryThis novel intertwines winter horror with psychological terror, following a young woman trapped in an abusive relationship in an isolated mountain cabin. The story takes a sinister turn when evidence of a monstrous presence emerges in the surrounding woods.The novel cleverly uses winter's isolation as a metaphor for domestic abuse, reinforcing the protagonist's entrapment and powerlessness. The hosts appreciate how Henry creates a suffocating atmosphere where both human and inhuman horrors coexist, making for an unsettling read.At the Mountains of Madness by H.P. LovecraftLovecraft's novella explores an Antarctic expedition that uncovers ancient, otherworldly horrors beneath the ice. The story embodies Lovecraftian cosmic horror, where the unknown and incomprehensible threaten human sanity.The isolation of the Antarctic setting, combined with the protagonists' slow descent into terror, makes this a classic example of winter horror. Though the hosts acknowledge Lovecraft's problematic legacy, they recognize the impact of this work on the horror genre.[related-link2] Dead North: Canadian Zombie Fiction (Anthology edited by Silvia Moreno-Garcia)This collection of short stories brings a Canadian twist to the zombie apocalypse. The cold, harsh winter landscapes serve as both a refuge and a challenge, as freezing temperatures incapacitate zombies but also create new survival difficulties.Some stories play with the concept of zombies freezing solid, making them less of a threat, while others explore human struggles in extreme conditions. The hosts find this anthology fascinating, particularly in its representation of Canadian settings and survivalist themes.Other Notable Winter Horror StoriesMisery by Stephen KingAlthough not a supernatural horror, Misery uses winter's isolation to intensify its psychological terror. A famous novelist is held captive by his obsessive fan, completely cut off from the outside world due to a snowstorm. The claustrophobic setting and the protagonist's helplessness create an atmosphere of dread that aligns with the themes of winter horror.Boys in the Valley by Philip FracassiSet in a remote Catholic orphanage during a brutal winter, this novel follows a group of boys facing a growing supernatural evil. The winter setting enhances the sense of being cut off from the outside world, and the novel's use of possession themes adds to its disturbing nature. Let the Right One In by John Ajvide LindqvistThis Scandinavian vampire novel features an unlikely friendship between a bullied boy and a mysterious girl. The frigid Swedish winter enhances the bleak atmosphere, and the story uses its setting to explore themes of loneliness and violence. The novel was later adapted into a highly acclaimed Swedish film and a decent American remake (Let Me In).30 Days of Night (Graphic Novel by Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith)Set in an Alaskan town where the sun doesn't rise for an entire month, this vampire story cleverly uses the prolonged darkness as a hunting ground for bloodthirsty creatures. The hosts praise the concept as one of the most intelligent uses of setting in horror fiction, though they note that the film adaptation failed to fully capitalize on the story's potential.The Impact of Winter HorrorThe hosts conclude that winter horror stories work exceptionally well because they heighten feelings of vulnerability, powerlessness, and isolation. These stories tap into deep-seated fears of being trapped and alone, making the setting itself a fundamental part of the horror experience.We invite listeners to share their favorite winter horror reads, as there are undoubtedly more chilling tales waiting to be discovered. Whether read during a snowy night or in the middle of summer, these stories remind us of the power of a well-crafted setting in evoking fear and suspense.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay take five months off to relax at a mountainous inn and discuss one of the greatest and most unnerving films of all time, 'The Shining.' Bombay kicks it off with a story about using an old school typewriter, Jack Torrance style, while outta his mind high on shrooms. Then Andy reminisces about the time he overdid it on psychedelics and walked into a furry convention in a hotel ballroom. Despite the heavy tone of the movie the fellas keep it light while discussing Stanley Kubrick's visually audacious opus. They mention Jack's drink of choice, a bourbon and egg liqueur, which is one of the oddest movie cocktails they ever noticed. Afterwards, the guys try their best to make sense of Jack accepting the job offer which was replete with one minor caveat: the last man who had your job went insane and murdered himself and his family. Then they talk about Jack Nicholson's insane faces throughout the entire runtime, and Shelley Duvall's performance that was unfairly maligned for years for being cranked to a 12 — but is alarmingly effective. The boys also go over how it wasn't such a bad deal for young Danny Torrance who got free reign in the sprawling hotel on his Big Wheel-trike, while getting to spend time with some cute twin girls his own age. Pop the episode on and listen to us forever, and ever, and ever...

Get bonus episodes on Patreon! The Shining is a Doctor Faustus retelling, but that's not the headline here. In this brand new theory, Cam argues that The Shining is a wholly unique restaging of Marlowe's original that expands the spotlight to not just focus on Jack Torrance as the current Faustus-analogue, but the legion of 'caretakers' that have come before him. In this framing, Mephisopheles stops being a singular character and instead expands to become the Overlook Hotel itself, a place for him to horde all of his ill-gotten souls.

Stanley Kubrick's filmmaking techniques, such as Steadicam and impossible architecture, play a major role in unsettling the audience. Jack Nicholson's portrayal of Jack Torrance is both iconic and chilling, adding depth to the character's descent into madness. Wendy Torrance, while often criticized for being a flat character, plays a crucial role in demonstrating the horror from a “normal” person's perspective. The ending photograph continues to spark debate, with theories ranging from reincarnation to Jack being eternally trapped by the hotel. Memorable Quotes: “This is one of those films where the filmmaking ascends beyond the movie itself.” – Frank “Jack Nicholson's performance is just a masterclass in madness.” – Thomas “Kubrick's use of impossible architecture messes with your subconscious.” – Frank “The hotel is like a character itself, constantly shifting and playing with your mind.” – Thomas Call to Action: If you loved this breakdown of The Shining, don't forget to subscribe to Challenge Accepted on your favorite podcast platform!

Jack Torrance moves his family into The Overlook Hotel for the winter so he can concentrate on his book. His son's special ability reveals a troubled history which soon begins to impose itself on Jack, leading to a delusional and murderous finale. Stanley Kubrick's multi layered masterpiece was dismissed by critics, nominated for Razzies and hated by Stephen King.

Sounds easy enough but the hotel has other plans in store. One of my favorites and it's relatively spoiler free. Plus my last March Madness Horror Ted talk.

Jack Torrance becomes winter caretaker at the isolated Overlook Hotel. He hopes to cure his writer's block and moves in with his family, his wife and his gifted son who is plagued by psychic premonitions. As Jack's writing goes nowhere, and Danny's visions become more disturbing, Jack discovers the hotel's dark secrets and begins to unravel into a homicidal maniac hellbent on terrorizing his family. That can only mean one thing, we watched The Shining on this episode of Retro Vs. Remake!

This week we finish off Spooky Season by discussing Stanley Kubrick's rendition of The Shining! Starring Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Scatman Crothers, and Danny Lloyd, this film is loosely based on Stephen King's 1977 novel. There are numerous differences, however, and it is all but confirmed that Kubrick brought his own vision to King's backdrop. Jack Nicholson portrays Jack Torrance, a writer who takes a job to watch after a hotel during the off-season for 5 months. He brings his family and when everyone else leaves, things start to get FREAKY. Jack begins the slow descent into madness while his wife and child are just trying to stay alive and stay sane. The level of detailed analysis that people have done on this film over the past 43 years is truly something to behold, and there is undoubtedly a lot to discuss... But Is The Shining Good?If you'd like to suggest a film or film franchise, or if you'd just like to say hello, you can reach us at butisitgoodpodcast@gmail.com, @biigpodcast on Twitter, or @butisitgoodpodcast on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube!

We head to The Overlook Hotel with a full house and a very special guest. The Shining is a movie that is burnt into pop culture and we give it the royal treatment it deserves - "Here's Johnny"!!"The Shining," directed by Stanley Kubrick and based on Stephen King's novel of the same name, unfolds the descent into madness of Jack Torrance, portrayed with an electrifying intensity by Jack Nicholson. Set within the isolating expanses of the Overlook Hotel, the film weaves a harrowing tale of supernatural horror and psychological unravelling. The hotel, itself a character, amplifies the familial decay and eerie supernatural occurrences, presenting a dual-natured antagonist alongside Jack's deteriorating sanity.Kubrick's direction notably strays from King's novel, employing a more ambiguous and psychologically intricate narrative, emphasizing visual and auditory experiences over explicit storytelling. The director's utilization of Steadicam technology immerses the audience in a smooth, yet paradoxically disorienting visual journey through the labyrinthine hotel. This technique, paired with the unsettling, repetitious score, compounds the suspense, reflecting the chaotic spiral of the Torrance family.Nicholson's performance is complemented by Shelley Duvall, who portrays Wendy Torrance, encapsulating a terrified yet fiercely protective mother. While Duvall's performance was criticized by some for being overly frantic, it reflects Wendy's traumatic experience, providing a distressing mirror to Jack's menacing demeanour. Danny Lloyd, playing their psychic son Danny, delivers an eerily mature performance, navigating the horrors with a blend of childlike innocence and perceptiveness, evidenced through his relationship with his imaginary friend, Tony.The Shining goes beyond mere scares; it explores themes of isolation, familial disintegration, and the haunting spectre of the past. The symbolic use of imagery, such as the infamous river of blood from the elevator, the hauntingly vacant stares of the twin girls, and the perplexing room 237, contribute to the film's enduring impact and myriad interpretations. These symbols weave a rich tapestry that invites viewers to dissect and discuss the film's underlying meanings long after the credits roll.Kubrick's decision to minimize explicit supernatural explanations enables a potent exploration of Jack's internal deterioration, questioning the boundaries between internal demons and external supernatural forces. This intentional ambiguity permeates the film, leaving the audience to grapple with the complex interplay between the psychological and the supernatural, between perceived reality and delusion.In sum, "The Shining" stands as a timeless piece of cinematic horror, combining sublime performances, innovative cinematography, and a multi-layered narrative to create an unsettling, perplexing, and viscerally horrifying masterpiece.Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcast If you are looking to start a podcast and want a host or get guests to pipe in remotely, look no further than Riverside.fmClick the link below https://riverside.fm/?utm_campaign=campaign_1&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=rewardful&via=matthew

We're back for episode two of the season to gush over 1980's masterpiece The Shining, and we're not alone! Colby Day (Spaceman, In The Blink of an Eye, Happy Vacation) joins in as we nerd out over just how danged good this film is. We discuss the theories (ranging from plausible to full on conspiracy) that surround the film, Jack Torrance's contempt for his family from day one, and why Scott may have been a good Spanky.

Jack Torrance har takket ja til å være vaktmester på ærverdige Overlook Hotel over vinteren i håp om å få ro og stillhet til å jobbe med skrivingen sin. Han har med seg sin kone Wendy og sønnen Danny, som har en helt spesiell evne kalt the “Shining”. Når vinteren kommer blir de innesnødd på hotellet og Jack har tilsynelatende blitt sinnsyk og prøver å drepe familien sin. Er det brakkesyke som har fått det til å tippe over for Jack, som gjerne vil leke litt og ikke bare jobbe eller er det andre krefter som påvirker han? I denne… Innlegget Episode 174: The Shining dukket først opp på Attack of the Killer Kast.

Today on The Neil Haley Show, Neil Haley interviews Steven Weber. Steven Robert Weber is an American actor and comedian. He is best known for his role as Brian Hackett on the television series Wings, voicing Charlie B. Barkin in All Dogs Go to Heaven: The Series, and portraying Jack Torrance in the TV miniseries adaptation of Stephen King's The Shining.

Probablemente habrás visto u oído más de una vez la icónica palabra “redrum”; que dicha al revés es simplemente “murder”, asesinato en español. Las películas de asesinatos son muy llamativas y normalmente tienen muchos espectadores. Hoy voy a hablaros de una película que en su momento no fue un boom, pero que con el tiempo, ha cambiado la percepción que tenemos sobre ella y sobre todo ha subido su calificación en las listas: El Resplandor. Si os hablo de ella en el podcast es porque, entre otras muchas razones, estar a las órdenes de Kubrick era un auténtico terror. "El Resplandor" es una novela de terror escrita por el autor estadounidense Stephen King. Fue publicada en 1977 y se ha convertido en una de las obras más conocidas y influyentes de King. La historia se centra en Jack Torrance, un escritor y alcohólico en recuperación, quien acepta un trabajo como cuidador de invierno en el Hotel Overlook, ubicado en las montañas de Colorado. Jack se muda al hotel con su esposa, Wendy, y su hijo de cinco años, Danny, quien posee habilidades psíquicas especiales conocidas como "el resplandor" o "shining". La trama se desarrolla en el aislamiento del hotel durante el invierno, cuando la familia Torrance queda atrapada allí debido a las fuertes nevadas. A medida que el hotel se vacía de personal y huéspedes, los Torrance comienzan a experimentar eventos paranormales y aislamiento extremo. Jack, influenciado por fuerzas malignas en el hotel, comienza a perder la cordura y se vuelve violento, lo que pone en peligro a su familia. La novela combina elementos de horror psicológico, paranormales y sobrenaturales, y explora temas como la adicción, la locura y la violencia familiar. "El Resplandor" ha sido adaptada a otras formas de medios, la versión cinematográfica dirigida por Stanley Kubrick en 1980 es especialmente conocida y ha dejado una marca duradera en la cultura popular. Además de la adaptación cinematográfica, "El Resplandor" de Stephen King también ha inspirado secuelas literarias, como "Doctor Sueño", que continúa la historia de Danny Torrance cuando es adulto. La obra de King es ampliamente considerada como un clásico del género de terror. La película "El Resplandor" es una adaptación cinematográfica de la novela homónima escrita por Stephen King. Fue dirigida por el aclamado director Stanley Kubrick y se estrenó en 1980. Aunque la película se basa en la novela de King, hay algunas diferencias notables entre ambas obras, y la versión cinematográfica es conocida por su estilo visual único y su enfoque en la psicología de los personajes. La trama de la película sigue a Jack Torrance, interpretado por Jack Nicholson, quien acepta un trabajo como cuidador de invierno en el Hotel Overlook, ubicado en las montañas de Colorado. Jack se muda al hotel con su esposa Wendy, interpretada por Shelley Duvall, y su hijo Danny, quien posee habilidades psíquicas especiales conocidas como "el resplandor". A medida que el hotel se vacía de personal y huéspedes debido al cierre invernal, la familia Torrance queda aislada en el lugar. Jack comienza a experimentar una creciente locura y violencia debido a la influencia maligna del hotel, mientras que Danny tiene visiones aterradoras relacionadas con el pasado siniestro del lugar. La película es conocida por su atmósfera opresiva, las actuaciones memorables de Jack Nicholson y Shelley Duvall, y las icónicas escenas, como la de Jack rompiendo la puerta del baño con un hacha y diciendo la famosa línea "Heeere's Johnny!". Aunque "El Resplandor" de Kubrick difiere en varios aspectos de la novela de Stephen King, ha ganado un estatus de culto y es considerada una de las películas de terror más influyentes y estilísticas de todos los tiempos. Su enfoque en la psicología de los personajes y su atmósfera inquietante la han convertido en una obra emblemática del género.

In this episode, about Stanley Kubrick's classic movie The Shining, we divide our interests neatly between sexual trauma and racism. Well, we attempt to divide them neatly. Andy and Alicia on the side of sex, Jake and Sagi on the side of Race. Andy starts us off by hypothesizing, in intricate detail, the possibility that the movie is about the actual sexual assault of young Danny by Jack Torrance. He also brackets everything with a comment about how endless the interpretations of this movie can be, and that we the "critical readers" end up trapped in the snowy labyrinth that awaits Jack outside. Sagi is all about this word Overlook, and the way it is tied to the manifest destiny of the white man. He also thinks about the way the white man goes into trance or self-hypnosis in order to Overlook the violence he commits.Jake introduces us to Frank Wilderson's theory about the difference between the grammar of violence committed against Native Americans and that committed against Black people. Jake reads this into the movie, since there is a famous interpretation that the Shining's violence represents the violent genocide of Native Americans, but few people have discussed the gratuitous murder of the Black man Dick.Alicia brings it home for us, thinking about the traumatic sexual encounter that occurs in room 237, where Jack meets a gorgeous naked women who decays into a corpse. What does this say about the male gaze? What does this say about our objects of desire? And how does the trauma of sex relate to racist violence?Jake and Sagi go Beast & Sovereign for the most part, and Alicia and Andy give us some good 'ole Pervs 'R Us.

Was Wendy Torrance a good cook? Did Danny Torrrance trick his dad into becoming a murderer? Does Stephen King think he's Jack Torrance? All these questions and more are tackled as Peter and Jacob delve into the terrifying depths of Stanley Kubrick's greatest masterwork, The Shining. Cabin fever at its best. Horror at its most refined. Shelley Duvall at her most antagonized. The terror behind the camera very nearly equals what came out of on the screen, as Kubrick demanded hundreds of takes, driving nearly everyone mad! Every major theory about this film is covered.

Dean, Matthew, and Scott recruit the help of Kirking Off host, Brian, and the four of them go deep into Mike Flannagan's attempt balance the Kubrick/King dichotomy with his vision of Doctor Sleep. Danny is all grown up, he's a drunk, and his actions have caused more death than Jack Torrance ever did. Dick Halloran is back, and he's got opinions on Danny's porn choices, and Bruce Greenwood makes an appearance as AA Doctor from Southie. Smiley from Training Day gets a prize if he saves three white folk in one month, and he hopes he doesn't have to blow grown-up Danny's brains out in his bathtub. Rose the Hat and the True Knot cruise around with their fancy hats (shoes optional), and Dean does his best Emperor impression in an attempt to get Portland Anderson to go back to his southern roots.

THANKS TO ANDREW FOR MAKING THE INTRO SONG. (soundcloud.com / andoryukesuta)@andoryukesuta The Shining 1980 Haunted by a persistent writer's block, the aspiring author and recovering alcoholic, Jack Torrance, drags his wife, Wendy, and his gifted son, Danny, up snow-capped Colorado's secluded Overlook Hotel after taking up a job as an off-season caretaker. As the cavernous hotel shuts down for the season, the manager gives Jack a grand tour, and the facility's chef, the ageing Mr Hallorann, has a fascinating chat with Danny about a rare psychic gift called "The Shining", making sure to warn him about the hotel's abandoned rooms, and, in particular, the off-limits Room 237. However, instead of overcoming the dismal creative rut, little by little, Jack starts losing his mind, trapped in an unforgiving environment of seemingly endless snowstorms, and a gargantuan silent prison riddled with strange occurrences and eerie visions. Now, the incessant voices inside Jack's head demand sacrifice. Is Jack capable of murder?

The Shining begins as Jack Torrance is interviewing for a position as the off-season caretaker of the Overlook Hotel, which sits in the mountains of Colorado. Some people say it was inspired by the real-life Stanley Hotel, though Stephen King says the Overlook is entirely fictional and doesn't have a real-life basis. Who's to say? Anyway, the Overlook represents a fresh start for the Torrance family, as Jack was fired from his previous job for brutally beating a student that slashed his tires. Jack has anger problems, to say the least, and is a recovering alcoholic. He really sees this job as an opportunity to rekindle things with his wife, Wendy, reconnect with his son, Danny, and focus on writing his play. Soon enough, the harsh Colorado winter sets in, the family is unable to leave the hotel grounds, and sinister things begin to happen that are centering around Danny. Danny has this unique gift that the in-season chef, Dick Halloran, calls his shine. Dick has a lesser version of this gift. Danny can have visions that seem to be premonitions, thanks to his imaginary friend, Tony, and can see and hear the hotel's ghosts, all of whom seem to have some nefarious intentions with the Torrance family. The Overlook is hungry, and Danny's shine is the perfect dinner.How big a part does destiny play in the family's life? What was Danny's first sign that the hotel's spirits were after him? Do we believe in ghosts?

On this Round Table the news brings us to Derry and to The Overlook a few times each, and some fun Flagg conversations, and what if Robin Williams had been cast as Jack Torrance in 1980?  Engage with the show by Email or Social Media!
