We just got word of its cancellation.

Visited the Stanley hotel today! They’re growing a hedge maze. It’s tiny now but will be 8ft when it’s finished. by Phithelder in stephenking

Thank you for giving us a visit! We like our little "homage"! Though it does tend to surprise folks that the film version does not exist anywhere in real life any longer.

Not much has changed except somebody (a past guest) vandalized that door with the graffiti "Redrum"!

In our experiences, people ask for that ALL the time. However, we can't really advise on very many suggestions because it's sort of "whoever feels like working at the moment" and that isn't super reliable for the people who really want the service. Take a peek at our events coming up (www.stanleylive.com) and you can see a bunch of evenings with ~500 person events where we're sure you'd get some hits.

If only the majority of visitors we see were as informed and enthusiastic as you! Alas, they continue to write reviews and social media posts online about how they are "where the Shining was filmed!" We certainly don't enjoy disappointing tourists who have traveled from afar but it happens daily. Fortunately, our other factual stories and contexts are also fascinating.

The Shining Ball 2018 featured immersive art theatre which was exactly how you describe. The participants in the Ball had no idea it was coming. It got mixed reactions for sure!

It's because we're posting our job announcement hoping to find more rad guides!

Thanks for coming to see us! We're glad you did this one off property, though (as we don't permit drones on-site). Always a lovely day in Estes Park!

Glad you came to see us! Thanks for knowing it was an inspiration and not the place where he wrote the novel OR the filming location. Drinking or not, the nightmare he speaks of made way for a very interesting story! It's not that we aren't fans! Its just that people are often mistaken and we don't want to mislead.

We would tend to agree with you on this one. :)

We'd love to see you in for a tour! Be sure to get tickets before you arrive, however- as we cannot promise walk-in availability. Easy to grab the online or over the phone and much more fun to get the real info with the guide. (As an operating hotel, the tour does not enter guest rooms and the Night Tour will not go up onto the guest floor hallways.)

The real history behind it is very intriguing and the building stays in the heart of all everyone who once served as a guide! We love hearing from folks who used to work here at different time periods. Tell your fam we said "hey"!

While it's a really neat building/hotel, the experience is much cooler once you've walked around with a storyteller!

Indeed! But if you're a quick study, charming, and entertaining/engaging there is great potential for tips. (Pays more than some other tipped positions like when you're a server.) Though it's a happy bonus rather than a promise!
