Stephen King's novel *The Shining* is not based on a real place, but it was inspired by King's stay at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. King and his wife spent a night there in 1974, and the hotel's isolated setting and eerie atmosphere influenced the novel. The hotel itself, with its historical charm and reported hauntings, contributed to the story’s setting, though the characters and plot are fictional. https://www.stanleyhotel.com/
