Trivia: Stephen King makes a cameo appearance as the band conductor of the 'ghostly' Gage Creed Orchestra.

Trivia: The hotel used for The Overlook in this film is the very hotel that Stephen King stayed in (in Estes Park, Colorado) that spooked him and inspired the novel 'The Shining'. The DVD commentary informs us that King reasoned that there was no better building to portray The Overlook than the one it was originally based upon.
