I recently re-read The Shining. I had not read it since high school.
I loved the book then, it was genuinely unnerving and scary. I still do now, but the horror is from a different angle. In fact the adult perspective makes it more horrifying. I won't say why, in case you have not read the book. The Kubrick movie is extremely different from the book, they can't be compared.
