Summary

The Stanley Hotel has gained much of its present day fame and notoriety from Stephen King's book The Shining.  The Stanley Hotel is so much more than just an inspiration for a horror book and movie.  This episode is a roundtable discussion with Colorado Historian Annette Student, who was in studio, about the history and hauntings of the Stanley Hotel!  This is a jam packed hour of information and fun!  The Moment in Oddity features the gravesite of Charles Dummet, which we had visited earlier in the day and the Day in History is about the burial of JFK.
