"The Stanley Hotel, located in Estes Park, Colorado, is famous for its connection to Stephen King's 'The Shining'. It is reputed as one of the most haunted hotels in America, with ghost tours, Victorian seances, and paranormal lectures. The hotel features the 'Stephen King Suite' and 'The Shining Suite', both of which include homages to King's work and the film adaptation. The hotel also hosts the annual Frozen Dead Guy Festival and offers tours related to its history and ghostly reputation. Despite its eerie allure, visitors can enjoy a scare-free stay, with many guests not experiencing anything supernatural. The hotel embraces its haunted legends with themed events and tours, attracting fans of King and horror enthusiasts alike." - Julie Tremaine Julie Tremaine Julie Tremaine is a freelance writer who’s passionate about travel, food, wellness, and road trips.
