Memorable Quotes from Danny Lloyd
3 quotesThe Overlook Hotel's Hidden History
Danny
Mr. Hallorann, are you scared of this place?
Hallorann
No. I ain't scared of nothing here. It's just that, you know, some places are like people. Some shine and some don't. I guess you could say the Overlook Hotel here has something almost like shining.
Danny
Is there something bad here?
Hallorann
Well, you know, Doc, when something happens, it can leave a trace of itself behind, say like if someone burns toast. Well, maybe things that happen leave other kinds of traces behind. Not things that anyone else can notice, but things that people who shine can see, just like they can see things that haven't happened yet. Well, sometimes they can see things that happened a long time ago. I think a lot of things happened right here in this hotel over the years, and not all of em was good.
Danny
What about Room 237?
Hallorann
Room 237?
Danny
You're scared of Room 237, ain't ya?
Hallorann
No I ain't.
Danny
Mr. Hallorann, what is in Room 237?
Hallorann
Nothing. There ain't nothing in Room 237, but you haven't got no business going in there anyway, so stay out! You understand? Stay out!
