The Shining

This was my first horror (and my only so far I think) novel and it indeed terrified me. I had heard so many good things about this and how this is the only story that seems to scare people. I heard equal praising of the movie but it felt like a low budget thriller if anything.

Fun fact: i had a white bathtub with white curtains in my bathroom, and after reading “the scene” I had kept the curtains open at ALL times
