- I'd only vaguely heard of this theory before, so decided to determine its veracity by finding and combining its various components into one video.
In #TheShining book, Jack Torrance is writing a history of the Overlook Hotel. Stanley #Kubrick may have modified it for the movie so that he's writing a more personal story loosely based on his own experiences. So what we see in the film are two different Jacks: the unhinged psychopathic killer Jack (or "Mr Torrance"), and his chronicler, the more stable and presentable Jack the writer.
PS: Did he write this story for his wife, who's "a confirmed ghost story and horror film addict"?
PPS: Props to Rob Ager (check out Collative Learning (www.collativel...) and his UA-cam channel ( / robag88 ) for the Dopey the Dwarf and Playgirl magazine concepts.
PPPS: I think I first heard this theory on Marten GO's channel. Check it out. / @preserveddragons
