The Stanley inspired horror novelist Stephen King to write The Shining. In 1974, King and his wife Tabitha spent one night in Room 217 while on vacation during their short residency in Boulder, Colorado.
There has been some real garbage movies made from Stephen King books. (Dreamcatcher and Sleepwalkers come to mind.) But no matter how many years pass, the author behind Carrie, Christine and Pet Cemetery still loathes the best-regarded horror movie based on his works. King still can't stand Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. Recently, Stephen King sat down with Rolling Stone. When the topic turned to the 1980 classic, King made his hatred for Kubrick's Shining clear, saying: The book is hot, and the movie is cold; the book ends in fire, and the movie in ice.
