Trivia
When Jack talks to his dead father on the CB radio, his nose begins to bleed. This was not planned. Steven Weber's nose spontaneously bled. See more »Goofs
Continuity: When the Torrances are left in the hotel, one of the rails on the Overlook's porch steps is missing (likely to allow a shot). It's back the next time the porch appears. See more »Quotes
