what hotel was the movie the shining filmed in
Apparently the ABC miniseries, THE SHINING was filmed at the Stanley Hotel. However the movie, THE SHINING was filmed at Mt Hood Lodge in Oregon. Not filming the movie at The Stanley had, according to one site, annoyed Stephen King and this had been the part of the motivation for ABC's refilming of the story!tephen King-the Overlook-the Stanley Hotel and Ghosts. back to historyinfo. Most folks have either seen the movie, THE SHINING or read Stephen King's book of the same title (one of King's best and scariest books!). The story takes place in a very haunted hotel named The OverLook.
