If you work in a hotel, don't watch The Shining.

Even if you've seen it once upon a time and think you can handly it but now you work in a hotel.

Don't watch it!

Ha! Saw the movie a million times during a Stanley Kubrick course I took at uni - and wrote a paper on it! AND live and work at a resort that will be basically deserted over the winter! With a labyrinth!

People have already mentioned The Shining to me...I'm trying NOT to be creeped out.

Oh yeah, that one is really freaky.

Maybe this will help. It's so completely hilarious, I swear.

Poppy: Yes, my mind has definitely been playing tricks on me.

W C: Wow! A deserted hotel in the winter with a Labyrinth! Now that IS creepy. What are you going to do?

G L: That was one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time. Thank you. It totally takes the piss out the The Shining.

I highly recommend it.

Reet reet; okay, I did work in a hotel when the Shining came to the local theatre in Banff, but I didn't go to the show when the roommates, I read the book - that was enough! My boyfriend at the time actually worked a cleaning shift through the night at the Banff Springs which was said to be Stephen King's inspiration for the hotel and from all accounts the cleaning staff were a jumpy bunch.

But wandering coyote's current workplace, the whole package, the LABYRINTH? YIKES, you've got chuzpah!

JL: I'm going to enjoy the quiet!

Mind you, the labyrinth is a brick structure on the ground, not a maze. Cool nonetheless...

Still, you are a brave woman.
