I had no idea when we visited the Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite National Park that it was actually the ‘Overlook Hotel’ from Stanley Kubrick’s the Shining! When we walked in I had this overwhelming sense that I had been there before. When we turned a corner and I saw those elevators I almost peed myself!! Note: yes I’m aware that the actual filming was done on a set. That’s why I put ‘Overlook Hotel’ in quotes. Kubrick based the interior shots from this hotel, not the Stanley. The Stanley was what King based his book on.
