Hi. I've got an appointment with Mr Ullman. My name's Jack Torrance.
His office is the first door on the left.
Thank you.
Mr Ullman? Yeah? I'm Jack Torrance.
Oh! Well, come on in, Jack.
Very nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, Mr Ullman.
This is my secretary, Susie.
Hello. Susie, how do you do? Have any trouble finding us?
No problem at all. I made the trip in three and a half hours.
That's very good time.
Sit down, Jack.
Make yourself at home.
Would you like some coffee?
Well, if you're going to have some, I wouldn't mind. Thanks.
Susie? Sure.
Would you ask Bill Watson to join us? Yes, I will.
TV BLARES
Mom?
Yeah.
Do you really want to go and live in that hotel for the winter?
Sure I do.
It'll be lots of fun.
Yeah. I guess so.
Anyway, there's hardly anybody to play with around here.
Yeah, I know. It always takes a little time to make new friends.
Yeah. I guess so.
What about Tony? He's looking forward to the hotel, I bet.
IN A SQUEAKY VOICE: "Not really, Mrs Torrance."
Now come on, Tony, don't be silly.
"I don't want to go there, Mrs Torrance."
Well, how come you don't want to go?
"I just don't."
Did they give you any idea in Denver about what the job entails?
Only in a very general way.
Well...
The winters can be fantastically cruel.
The basic idea is to cope
with the very costly damage and depreciation which can occur.
This consists mainly of running the boiler,
heating different parts of the hotel on a daily rotating basis,
repairing damage and doing repairs
so that the elements can't get a foothold.
Well, that sounds fine to me.
Physically, it's not a very demanding job.
The only thing that can get a bit trying up here in the winter
is a tremendous sense of isolation.
Well, that just happens to be exactly what I'm looking for.
I'm... I'm outlining a new writing project
and five months of peace is just what I want.
That's very good, Jack.
Because...
..for some people,
the solitude and...isolation...can,
of itself, become a problem.
Not for me.
How will your wife and son take to it?
They'll love it.
Right.
Well...before I turn you over to Bill,
there's one other thing I think we should talk about.
I don't want to sound melodramatic
but it's something that has been known
to give people second thoughts about the job.
I'm intrigued.
I don't suppose they told you anything in Denver
about the tragedy we had in the winter in 1970?
I don't believe they did.
Well...my predecessor in this job
hired a man named Charles Grady as the winter caretaker.
He came up here with his wife and two little girls,
I think about eight and ten.
He had a good employment record, good references
and, from what I've been told, he seemed like
a completely normal individual.
But at some point, during the winter,
he must have suffered some kind of a complete mental breakdown.
He ran amok and...
..killed his family with an axe.
Stacked them neatly in one of the rooms of the west wing
and then he, um...
..he put both barrels of a shotgun in his mouth.
Police, er...
They thought it was what the old-timers used to call cabin fever,
kind of claustrophobic reaction which can occur
when people are shut in together over a long period of time.
Well...
It is...quite a story.
Yeah, it is.
It's still hard for me to believe it actually happened here.
But it did. And, er, I think you can appreciate
why I wanted to tell you about it.
I certainly can. And I also understand why your people in Denver
left it for you to tell me.
Well, obviously, some people can be put off
by the idea of staying alone in a place where that happened.
Well, you can rest assured, Mr Ullman.
That's not going to happen with me.
And...as far as my wife is concerned,
I'm sure she'll be absolutely fascinated when I tell her about it.
She's a confirmed ghost-story and horror-film addict.
Tony, do you think Dad will get the job?
HE SQUEAKS FOR TONY: "He already did.
"He's going to phone Wendy up in a few minutes to tell her."
PHONE RINGS
Hello.
Hi, babe.
Hi, hon. How's it going?
Great. I'm at the hotel, I have a lot to go through.
I can't get home before nine or ten.
Sounds like you got the job.
Right. It's a beautiful place.
You and Danny are going to love it.
Tony, why don't you want to go to the hotel?
AS TONY: "I don't know."
You do, too, know. Come on, tell me.
"Don't want to."
Please.
"No."
Tony, tell me.
Boy... We must really be high up.
The air feels so different.
Mm-hm.
Dad?
Yes.
I'm hungry.
You should've eaten your breakfast.
We'll get you something as soon as we get to the hotel, OK?
OK, Mom.
Hey, wasn't it around here that the Donner party got snowbound?
I think that was further west in the Sierras.
Oh.
What was the Donner party?
They were a party of settlers in covered-wagon times.
They got snowbound one winter in the mountains.
They had to resort to cannibalism in order to stay alive.
You mean they ate each other up?
They had to, in order to survive.
Jack...
Don't worry, Mom. I know all about cannibalism. I saw it on TV.
See? It's OK. He saw it on the television.
What time does the plane leave?
8.30.
That gives us time to go over everything.
Bye, Mr Ullman. Bye.
Good morning, Jack.
Hope you haven't waited too long.
No problem. In fact, we had time to grab a bite to eat.
Glad you made it before they shut the kitchen.
Is your family having a look around?
No. My son has discovered the games room.
Has your luggage been brought in?
Right there.
In view of all we have to do, let's see your apartment, then start.
Phil, have the Torrances' things brought to their apartment.
I'd better collect my family first.
This is our Colorado lounge.
Oh, it's beautiful!
My God, this place is fantastic, isn't it, honey?
It sure is.
This is the staff wing of the hotel.
None of the other bedrooms are heated during the winter.
Goodbye, Mr Ullman.
Goodbye, girls!
And here are your quarters.
Living room, bedroom, bathroom.
And a small bedroom for your son.
Perfect for a child.
Yeah. Yes.
When was the Overlook built?
Er, construction started 1907.
It was finished in 1909.
The site is supposed to be located on an Indian burial ground
and they had to repel Indian attacks as they were building it.
That's our snowcat.
Can you both drive a car?
Yes.
That's fine because basically the snowcat operates
very much like a car.
It won't take you long to get the hang of it.
This is the kitchen, huh?
Yeah, this is it.
How do you like it? Is it big enough?
Yeah. It's the biggest place I've ever seen.
Yeah. This whole place is such an enormous maze,
I'll have to leave a trail of bread crumbs every time I come in.
Don't let it get you down. It's big but it ain't nothing but a kitchen.
A lot of the stuff you'll never have to touch.
I wouldn't know what to do with it if I did.
One thing's for sure.
You don't have to worry about food.
You could eat up here a whole year
and never have the same menu twice.
Now, right here is our walk-in freezer.
Now this is where we keep all of our meat.
You got 15 rib roasts,
30 ten-pound bags of hamburger,
we got 12 turkeys, about 40 chickens, 50 sirloin steaks,
two dozen of pork roasts and 20 legs of lamb.
Do you like lamb, Doc?
No.
No? What's your favourite food?
French fries and ketchup.
I think we can manage that, too, Doc.
Come along, mind your step.
Mr Hallorann...
How do you know we call him "Doc"?
Beg your pardon?
Doc. You called Danny "Doc" twice just now.
I did?
Yeah. We call him Doc sometimes.
Like in the Bugs Bunny cartoons.
But how did you know that?
I probably heard you call him that.
Maybe but I don't remember calling him that since we've been with you.
Well, anyway, he looks like a Doc.
"Nah! What's up, Doc?!"
Now, this is the store room.
Here, Mrs Torrance, is where we keep all the dried and canned goods.
We got canned fruits and vegetables, canned fish and meats,
hot and cold cereals,
Post Toasties, Corn Flakes, Sugar Puffs, Rice Krispies,
oatmeal, cream of wheat.
You got a dozen jugs of black molasses,
we got 60 boxes of dried milk, 30 four-pound
bags of sugar...
VOICE FADES OUT UNDER MENACING MUSIC
How'd you like some ice cream, Doc?
..sociables, rolls
and seven kinds of what-have-you.
We got dried peaches, dried apricots,
dried raisins and dried prunes.
Mrs Torrance, you got to keep regular if you're going to be happy!
HE LAUGHS
Hi. How you getting on? Just fine.
Can we borrow Mrs Torrance?
We're off to the basement.
We won't keep her long.
No problem. I was just getting to the ice cream.
Do you like ice cream, Doc?
Yeah. I thought you did.
You don't mind if I give Danny some ice cream?
Not at all. We don't mind.
Sound good to you, Doc? Yeah.
OK. You behave yourself.
What kind of ice cream do you like, Doc?
Chocolate.
Chocolate it shall be.
Come on, son.
It's amazing how much activity is going on.
The guests and some staff left yesterday
but the last day is always hectic.
Everyone wants to be on their way early.
By five o'clock tonight, you'll never know anybody was ever here.
Just like a ghost ship, huh?
Yes.
Do you know how I knew your name was Doc?
You know what I'm talking about, don't you?
I can remember when I was a little boy.
My grandmother and I could hold conversations
entirely without ever opening our mouths.
She called it "shining".
And for a long time, I thought it was just the two of us
that had the shine to us.
Just like you probably thought you was the only one.
But there are other folks.
Though mostly they don't know it or don't believe it.
How long have you been able to do it?
Why don't you want to talk about it?
I'm not supposed to.
Who says you ain't supposed to?
Tony.
Who's Tony?
Tony is a little boy that lives in my mouth.
Is Tony the one that tells you things?
Yes.
How does he tell you things?
It's like I go to sleep and he shows me things.
But when I wake up, I can't remember everything.
Does your mom and dad know about...Tony?
Yes.
Do they know he tells you things?
No. Tony told me never to tell 'em.
Has Tony ever told you anything about this place?
About the Overlook Hotel?
I don't know.
Now think real hard, Doc. Think.
Is there something bad here?
Well...
You know, Doc, when something happens,
it can leave a trace of itself behind.
Say, like... if someone burns toast...
Well...maybe things that happen
leave other kinds of traces behind.
Not things that anyone can notice.
But things that people who shine can see.
Just like they can see things that haven't happened yet,
well, sometimes they can see things that happened a long time ago.
I think a lot of things happened right here in this particular hotel
over the years.
And not all of them was good.
What about room 237?
"Room 237"?
You're scared of room 237, ain't ya?
No, I ain't.
Mr Hallorann, what is in room 237?
Nothin'.
There ain't nothin' in room 237.
But you ain't got no business going in there anyway. So stay out.
You understand? Stay out.

I guess we've been staying up too late.
I know.
I made 'em just the way you like 'em. Sunny side up.
Nice.
It's really pretty outside.
How about taking me for a walk after your breakfast?
I suppose I ought to try to do some writing first.
Any ideas yet?
Lots of ideas. No good ones.
Well, something will come.
It's just a matter of settling back into the habit of writing every day.
Yeah. That's all it is.

All right!
You're going to lose!
I'm going to get you. You better run fast.
Look out. I'm coming in close.
You win. Let's take the rest of this walking, huh? OK.
Give me your hand.
Isn't it beautiful?
Yeah.
Dead end!
Ooh, we made it! Isn't it beautiful?
Yeah.
It's so pretty.
I bet you didn't think it was going to be this good, did you?
No.

Hi, hon.
How's it going?
Fine.
Get a lot written today?
Yes.
Hey, weather forecast said it's going to snow tonight.
What do you want me to do about it?
Come on, hon. Don't be so grouchy.
I'm not...being grouchy.
I just want to finish my work.
OK. I understand.
I'll come back later with a couple of sandwiches
and maybe you'll let me read something.
Wendy, let me explain something to you.
When you come and interrupt,
you're breaking my concentration.
You're distracting me.
And it will then take me time to get back to where I was!
Understand?
Yeah.
Fine.
We're going to make a new rule.
Whenever I'm in here and you hear me typing...
HE TYPES
..or you don't hear me typing, whatever the fuck you hear me doing,
when I'm here that means that I am working. That means don't come in.
You think you can handle that?
Yeah.
Fine. Why don't you start right now
and get the fuck out of here?
OK.

Hi. This is Wendy Torrance at the Overlook Hotel.
Hi. How you folks getting on up there? Over.
We're fine. But our telephones don't seem to be doing too well.
Are the lines down by any chance? Over.
Yes. Quite a few of them are down due to the storm. Over.
Any chance of them being repaired soon? Over.
I wouldn't like to say. Most winters they stay down until spring. Over.
Boy, this storm is really something, isn't it? Over.
Oh, yes, it's one of the worst we've had for years.
Is there anything else we can do for you? Over.
I suppose not. Over.
Well, if you have any problems, give us a call. And, Mrs Torrance...
It might be a good idea if you leave your radio on all the time. Over.
OK. Will do that. It was real nice talking to you.
Bye. Over and out.
GIRLS, ECHOING: Hello, Danny.
Come and play with us.
Come and play with us, Danny.
For ever.
And ever.
Tony...

TONY SQUEAKS: "Remember what Mr Hallorann said.
"It's just like pictures in a book, Danny.
"It isn't real."
Can I go to my room and get my fire engine?
Come here for a minute first.
How's it going, Doc?
OK.
Having a good time?
Yes, Dad.
Good.
I want you to have a good time.
I am, Dad.
Dad...
Yes?
Do you feel bad?
No.
Just a little bit tired.
Then why don't you go to sleep?
I can't.
I have too much to do.
Dad...
Yes?
Do you like this hotel?
Yes.
I do.
I love it.
Don't you?
I guess so.
Good.
I want you to like it here.
I wish we could stay here for ever
and ever...
..and ever.
Dad...
What?
You would never hurt Mommy and me, would you?
What do you mean?
Did your mother ever say that to you?
That I would hurt you?
No, Dad.
You sure?
Yes, Dad.
I love you, Danny.
I love you more than anything else in the whole world.
I would never do anything to hurt you. Never.
You know that, don't you? Huh?
Yes, Dad.

The most terrible nightmare I ever had...
It was the most horrible dream I ever had.
It's OK, it's OK now. Really.
I dreamed that I killed you and Danny.
But I didn't just kill you.
I cut you up into little pieces.
My God...
I must be losing my mind.
Everything's going to be all right.
Come on, let's get back up off the floor.
Just sit down. It's OK.
It's OK.
Danny! Everything's OK!
Just...go play in your room for a while.
Your dad's just got a headache.
Danny, mind what I say. Go play in your room!
Hon, let me just get him out of here. I'll be right back.
Danny... Why don't you mind me, huh?
Danny...
Oh, my God...
Danny, what happened to your neck?
Danny!
What happened to your neck?
Huh?
You did this to him. Didn't you?
You son of a bitch!
You did this to him!
Didn't you?!
How could you?! How could you?!
No.
Me...
HE MUTTERS
God, I'd give anything for a drink.
I'd give my goddamn soul for...
..just a glass of beer.
Hi, Lloyd.
Little slow tonight, isn't it?
HE LAUGHS
Yes, it is, Mr Torrance.
What'll it be?
I'm awfully glad you asked me that, Lloyd.
Because I just happen to have
two twenties and two tens right here in my wallet.
I was afraid they were going to be there until next April.
So here's what.
You slip me a bottle of bourbon,
a little glass and some ice.
You can do that, can't you, Lloyd?
You're not too busy, are ya?
No, sir. Not busy at all.
Good man. You set 'em up
and I'll knock 'em back, Lloyd. One by one.
White man's burden, Lloyd, my man. White man's burden.
Say, Lloyd, it seems I'm temporarily light.
How's my credit in this joint anyway?
Your credit's fine, Mr Torrance.
That's swell. I like you, Lloyd.
I always liked you.
You were always the best of 'em.
Best goddamn bartender from Timbuktu to Portland, Maine.
To Portland, Oregon, for that matter.
Thank you for saying so.
I never laid a hand on him, goddammit.
I didn't.
I wouldn't touch one hair on his goddamn little head.
I love the little son of a bitch!
I'd do anything for him.
Any fuckin' thing for him.
But that bitch...
As long as I live, she'll never let me forget what happened.
I did hurt him once, OK?
It was an accident.
Completely unintentional.
Could've happened to anybody.
And it was three goddamn years ago!
That little fucker had thrown all my papers over the floor!
All I tried to do was pull him up!
It was a momentary loss of muscular coordination, know what I mean?
A few extra foot-pounds of energy per second, per second.
WENDY SCREAMS: Jack!
Jack! Thank God you're here!
Jack! There's someone else in the hotel with us.
There's a crazy woman in one of the rooms.
She tried to strangle Danny!
Are you out of your fuckin' mind?
No! It's the truth, really!
I swear it! Danny told me!
He went up into one of the bedrooms.
The door was open and he saw this crazy woman in the bathtub.
She tried to strangle him!
Which room was it?

In Colorado ten inches of snow have fallen tonight.
Travel in the Rockies

highways are blocked by snowdrifts, railroad tracks are frozen.
Officials in Colorado said three people have been killed

The Governor is expected to declare a weather emergency.
The National Guard might be called out to clear roads.
Forecasters predict more snow and heavy winds tonight and tomorrow

South Florida has the opposite problem. The heat and humidity

I'm sure he'll be himself again in the morning.
Well, are you sure it was the right room?
I mean, maybe Danny made a mistake.
He must have gone in that room.
The door was open, the lights were on.
I just don't understand.
What about those bruises on his neck?
Somebody did that to him.

No...that's not possible.

A lot of lines around here are down due to the storm.
Look, sir, I hate to put you to any trouble

It's good to see you.
It's good to be back, Lloyd.

Bourbon on the rocks.
That'll do her.

It's not a matter that concerns you, Mr Torrance.
At least, not at this point.
Anything you say, Lloyd.
Anything you say.
Dear, oh, dear, I'm so sorry, sir.
Oh, dear, dear. I've made an awful mess of your jacket, sir.
Oh, that's all right. I've got plenty of jackets.
I'm afraid it's Advocaat. It tends to stain.
Advocaat, is it?
Yes. Look, I think the best thing is
to come along to the gentleman's room
and we'll get some water to it, sir.
Looks as though you might have got
a spot of it on yourself there, Jeevesy, old boy.
That doesn't matter. You're the important one.
Awfully nice of you to say.
Of course, I intend to change my jacket this evening
before the fish and goose soiree.
Very wise, sir. Very wise.
I'll just... hold this for you there, Jeevesy.
Thank you, sir. Thank you.
Now let's see if we can improve this with a little water, sir.
I'll just set my bourbon and Advocaat down right there.
Won't keep you a moment, sir.
Fine.
What do they call you, Jeevesy?
Grady, sir. Delbert Grady.
Grady?
Yes, sir.
Delbert Grady?
That's right, sir.
Er...
Mr Grady...haven't I seen you somewhere before?
Why, no, sir. I don't believe so.
Aha. It's coming off now, sir.
Mr Grady...
Weren't you once the caretaker here?
Why, no, sir. I don't believe so.
You, er, married man, are you, Mr Grady?
Yes, sir. I have a wife and two daughters, sir.
And, er...
where are they now?
Oh, they're somewhere around. I'm not quite sure at the moment, sir.
Mr Grady...
You were the caretaker here.
I recognise you.
I saw your picture in the newspapers.
You, er...
..chopped your wife and daughters up into little bits.
And... And you blew your brains out.
That's strange, sir.
I don't have any recollection of that at all.
Mr Grady...
..you were the caretaker here.
I'm sorry to differ with you, sir.
But you...
..are the caretaker.
You have always been the caretaker.
I should know, sir.
I've always been here.
Did you know, Mr Torrance,
that your son is attempting to bring
an outside party into this situation?
Did you know that?
No.
He is, Mr Torrance.
Who?
A nigger.
A nigger?
A nigger cook.
How?
Your son...has a very great talent.
I don't think you are aware how great it is.
But he is attempting to use that very talent against your will.
Well...
He is a very wilful boy.
Indeed he is, Mr Torrance.
A very wilful boy.
A rather...naughty boy,
if I may be so bold, sir.
It's his mother.
She, er...
..interferes.
Perhaps...they need a good talking-to,
if you don't mind my saying so.
Perhaps...
..a bit more.
My girls, sir, they didn't care for the Overlook at first.
One of them actually stole a pack of matches
and tried to burn it down.
But I...
..corrected them, sir.
And when my wife tried to prevent me from doing my duty...
..I...
..corrected her.

I guess the entire airport will be closed within the hour.
The storm will continue during the day.
The Weather Service has declared a stockman and traveller's advisory...
Jack!
How do you like it?
SHE SCREAMS
Jack!
How do you like it?
What are you doing down here?
I...just...
..wanted...to talk to you.
OK.
Let's talk.
What do you want to talk about?
I...
I can't...really remember.
You can't remember?
No. I can't.
JACK DISTORTED: Maybe it was about Danny.
Maybe it was about him.
I think that we should discuss Danny.
I think...we should discuss
what should be done...
What should be done with him?
I don't know.
I don't think that's true.
I think you have some definite ideas
about what should be done with Danny
and I'd like to know what they are.
Well...
I think maybe he should be taken to a doctor.
You think maybe he should be taken to a doctor?
Yes.
When do you think maybe he should be taken to a doctor?
As soon as possible.
HE MIMICS WENDY: "As soon as possible"?
Jack...
Please...
You believe his health might be at stake.
Yes.
You are concerned about him.
Yes!
And are you concerned about me?
Of course I am!
Of course you are!
Have you ever thought about MY responsibilities?
What are you talking about?
Have you ever had a single moment's thought about my responsibilities?
Have you thought for a moment about
my responsibilities to my employers?!
Has it ever occurred to you
that I agreed to look after the Overlook Hotel until May 1st?
Does it matter to you at all that
the owners placed their trust in me
and that I signed an agreement, a contract,
in which I accepted that responsibility?!
Do you have the slightest idea what a moral and ethical principle is?
Do you?!
Has it occurred to you what would happen to me if I failed to live up
to my responsibilities?! Has it occurred to you?!
Get away from me.
Why?
I just want to go back to my room.
Why?
Well... I'm very confused.
I just...need a chance to think things over.
You've had your whole fucking life to think things over!
What good's a few minutes more going to do you now?
Stay away from me.
Please! Don't hurt me!
I'm not going to hurt you.
Stay away from me!
Wendy... Stay away!
Darling, light of my life...
I'm not going to hurt you. You didn't let me finish my sentence.
I said, I'm not going to hurt you.
I'm just going to bash your brains in.
I'm going to bash 'em right the fuck in.
Stay away from me!
Don't hurt me!
I'm not going to hurt you!
Stay away from me!
Stay away!
Please!
Stop swinging the bat.
Stay away from me!
Put the bat down, Wendy.
Stop it!
Wendy, give me the bat.
Please! Stay away!
Give me the bat.
Stop it!
Give me the bat.
Stay away from me!
Stop swinging the bat.
Give me the bat.
Stay away from me!
Wendy! Give me the bat. Give me the bat!
Goddamn!
SHE GASPS
HE GROANS
HE GURGLES
Take me...
SLURRED: What you doing?
Hey...
Wait a minute.
What are you doing?
Ow!
Hey! Wait a minute!
BANGING ON DOOR
What are you doing?!
Open the door!
Goddammit! Let me outta here!
Open the goddamn door!
Wendy, listen! Let me out of here
and I'll forget the whole goddamn thing!
It'll be just like nothing ever happened!
Wendy... Baby...
I think you hurt my head real bad.
I'm dizzy.
I need a doctor.
Honey...
Don't leave me in here.
I'm going to go now.
I'm going to try and...
..get Danny down to Sidewinder...
..in the snowcat today.
I'll bring back a doctor.
Wendy...
I'm going to go now.
Wendy...
Yes?
You've got a big surprise comin' to you.
HE LAUGHS
You're not going anywhere.
Go check out the snowcat and the radio and you'll see what I mean.
HE LAUGHS
Go check it out.
Go check it out!
Go check it out.
HE SNORES QUIETLY
KNOCK ON DOOR
Wendy?
It's Grady, Mr Torrance.
Delbert Grady.
Grady?
Grady...
Grady, er...
Oh, Grady...
Mr Torrance...
..I see you can hardly have taken care of the...business...
..we discussed.
No need to rub it in, Mr Grady.
I'll deal with that situation as soon as I get out of here.
Will you indeed, Mr Torrance?
I wonder.
I have my doubts.
I and others have come to believe...
..that your heart is not in this.
That you haven't the belly for it.
Just give me one more chance to prove it, Mr Grady.
That's all I ask.
Your wife appears to be stronger than we imagined, Mr Torrance.
Somewhat more...resourceful.
She seems to have got the better of you.
For the moment, Mr Grady.
Only for the moment.
I fear you will have to deal with this matter...
in the harshest possible way, Mr Torrance.
I fear... that is the only thing to do.
There's nothing I look forward to with greater pleasure, Mr Grady.
You give your word on that, do you, Mr Torrance?
I give you my word.
