![]() Adaptation Deviation: Because the Overlook Hotel was destroyed at the end of King's version of The Shining, the climax of the original book took place at a campground where the hotel once stood.Her repeated line of, "Fucking men," does imply some kind of abuse in her history, though, and she did lure a man who enjoys underage girls as a form of retribution against their type.
