…or “Inspiration and Filming Locations For The Shining (1980):
“Tangentially Kubrick related: spent some time today in Estes Park, Colorado at The Stanley Hotel, which was the inspiration for The Shining and was where Stephen King wrote it over a five month period. - sd-08.04.07″
I had always heard that Stephen King spent some time at Mohonk Mountain House (New Paltz, NY) researching / writing The Shining and that actual filming was done at a resort in Oregon, but according to this page, the Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood, OR was only used for a few exteriors and the interiors were filmed at Elstree Studios in London (UK)
it’s Kubrick Week over here at Casa Hobbs
