STEPHEN KING WROTE A SEQUEL TO THE SHINING CALLED DOCTOR SLEEP WHICH INVOLVED AN OLDER DANNY!



WHY DON'T THEY JUST ADAPT THE SEQUEL STEPHEN KING WROTE INSTEAD OF HAVING TO CREATE A NEW STORY!! THIS IDIOTS SMH AM TIRED OF THESE IDIOTS! YOU HAVE A SEQUEL TO THE SHINING RIGHT THERE JUST USE IT ADAPT IT! NOT A PREQUEL! GAWD I AM SO UPSET NOW! Ooh lets not make sense and adapt the sequel Stephen King wrote LETS CREATE OUR OWN PREQUEL WHICH WILL PROBABLY JUST END UP REPEATING THE EVENTS OF THE FIRST FILM AGAIN!

OK, no THIS I am not behind with, do not touch the shining, at all!

AxeEffect, Stephen King already wrote a sequel to The Shining called Doctor Sleep.

- On highways across America, a tribe of people called the True Knot travel in search of sustenance. They look harmless—mostly old, lots of polyester, and married to their RVs. But as Dan Torrance knows, and spunky twelve-year-old Abra Stone learns, the True Knot are quasi-immortal, living off the steam that children with the shining produce when they are slowly tortured to death.

- Haunted by the inhabitants of the Overlook Hotel, where he spent one horrific childhood year, Dan has been drifting for decades, desperate to shed his father’s legacy of despair, alcoholism, and violence. Finally, he settles in a New Hampshire town, an AA community that sustains him, and a job at a nursing home where his remnant shining power provides the crucial final comfort to the dying. Aided by a prescient cat, he becomes “Doctor Sleep.”

- Then Dan meets the evanescent Abra Stone, and it is her spectacular gift, the brightest shining ever seen, that reignites Dan’s own demons and summons him to a battle for Abra’s soul and survival. This is an epic war between good and evil, a gory, glorious story that will thrill the millions of devoted readers of The Shining and satisfy anyone new to this icon in the King canon.

THIS IS WHAT THEY SHOULD BE ADAPTING ^ . I actually even started to read the novel and it's awesome! NOT THIS BULLSHIT PREQUEL IDEA THEY HAVE!

@AxeEffect

HA I just noticed me and Abary posted two Stephen King articles just after each other....what a small world.

@Jacky

I hate prequels, but they got Alfonso.....so I'm on board.

Has there ever been a decent prequel? I can't think of one.
