    Hedge animals have moved, the elevator that started with the sound of people talking about a party, the blood on the wall, and the lady in room 217 who sleeps in the tub. It had been noted that a lot of colorful people have indeed stayed at this hotel before. There were mafia, drug dealers, and so on and so forth. It would not be a surprised if someone had died here before. Both Jack and Danny have seen the hedge animals move at different times. They never actually see them more, but when they look over they are closer. The lady in the tub was seen by Danny, when he went in there after Hallorann told him not to. She was the only thing that physically was able to grab him with a grimace. “Still grinning, her hug marble eyes fixed on him, she was sitting up (King 320)”.

The Shining also could be seen as a Drama. The genre, Drama, focuses on the characters and the realistic emotional struggles they face. We see resentment, frustration, annoyance, insanity, etc.…
