A magical place with a lot of paranormal activity. There is so much history here. Mr. Stanley was a truly remarkable individual.
I was in heaven the entire day. The only thing that would surpass that feeling would be to stay in Room 217. The room that Stephen King slept in when he came up with the novel The Shining.
God, I'd give anything for a drink. I'd give my Goddamned soul for just a glass of beer.
