S2E1 - The Shining: The Definitive Episode

"This inhuman place creates human monsters"

It's perhaps one of Stephen King's most famous and lauded works, and for good reason. The Shining's expert pacing and excellently crafted atmosphere as well as the pointed internal dialogue of the characters craft a stunning tale of horror that has endured for several decades. Then, Stanley Kubrick came through in 1980 to release the incredibly popular and equally masterful movie adaptation, however King himself never quite took to it. Join us and our special guest, Erin Devany, in this massive episode as we explore the troubled history of this book as well as the adaptations of it and themes presented in all versions.
