Points of Interest

 * Overlook Hotel: The Overlook Hotel was a luxury summer vacation resort nestled deep within the Colorado Rockies. Some sources indicate that it was built over top a Native American burial ground. Construction on the Overlook Hotel began in 1907 and was finished in 1909. According to hotel manager Stuart Ullman, the construction crews had to fight off angry groups of Indians that would attack the site. The Overlook became infected by what has been described by one source as a "house demon". For whatever mystical origins the hotel may have been birthed from, it carried with it a long history of ghostly hauntings, many of which came about as a result of suicides committed by either staff members or guests. The final residents of the Overlook were its winter caretaker, Jack Torrance, who went insane and tried to butcher his wife, Wendy, and son, Danny.
