Survive a Night at the Hotel That Inspired ‘The Shining’
Take a pilgrimage to the Stanley Hotel in Colorado, where paranormal happenings are said to have inspired author Stephen King’s “The Shining.” Though his experiences took place in room 217, the hotel plays the horror film on a loop in all of its guest rooms for visitors’ enjoyment. If you book far in advance, you can stay at the Stanley Hotel over Halloween and attend its annual Shining Ball and Halloween Masquerade Party. Currently, a two-night stay between Oct. 30-31 will cost you just under $600 at the minimum.
