Continuity mistake: When Jack is chopping at the bathroom door with the axe, he completely breaks through the right side panel. After the shot of Halloran arriving in the snow cat, we see Jack at the door again and there are a couple of large wood slivers lodged in the right panel.
Continuity mistake: After Jack kills Halloran, there is blood on the blade of the axe, including the next couple of scenes chasing after Danny. However, when they get into the maze, the axe blade is bright and shiny with no traces of blood.
Deliberate mistake: Although Kubrick might've done this on purpose to show that the Overlook is unusual, as Jack is walking to the office to meet the manager, there is a left turn ahead, leaning to another hallway. When he goes into the manager's office, there's a window behind his desk that shows trees outside, but it shouldn't be there because that's where the hallway is.
Continuity mistake: As Jack talks and yells to Wendy at the writing spot, a chair appears behind him between shots.
Visible crew/equipment: At the beginning of the movie, Jack knocks on Ullman's office door and you can see Stanley Kubrick reflected in one of the square window panes behind Mr Ullman. Do not confuse Kubrick's reflection with Jack Nicholson's. (00:03:39)
Continuity mistake: Wendy is smoking a cigarette when Danny starts screaming, then she runs into the bedroom and opens the door, and doesn't have the cigarette.
Answer: It was The Gold Room. The skeletons are simply those of past guests: we never learn their identities.
Not the Gold Room. It's the lobby area you see earlier in the movie when they first get there and Jack is sitting in a chair reading a magazine.
