It's the highest ranking kickstarter for comics in Sweden, and I got the whole collection-box. Five books filled with norse mythology! Every book is a work of art, for sure. I won't take pictures of the books themselves, though, because of copyright, so I guess you have to trust me on that.

Mama mia Figarooooo... there are a few songs by Queen, making even ME wanna sing and dance, like Bohemian Rhapsody, We will rock you and a few others. 🔫 and 🌹 have several great partysongs; Paradise City, Sweet child of mine, etc... and Lynyrd Skynyrd with Sweet home Alabama, or why not "Take me home, Country Roads" by John Denver? AC/DC have a whole collection of great songs (TNT, Highway to hell, etc), to name but a few.

I agree! The shining IS scary, but not in the usual "boo!"-scare that jumps out at you in 15 horror movies out of 10. Just as you say, the decline, the hotel slowly, sinister(...-ly?) crushing, ever tighter, around his mind, much more so than the body. That sort of scare and tension you get when reading IT; something dark is coming. Something... utterly evil. Something old. Slowly sneaking up on you. Dissolving your resistance, bit ny bit. I absolutely loved it as I read it at age 13-14, but much more as a grown man. It is even better now, because of your/my own experience. And continuing with dr Sleep is the way! I had forgotten a lot of the story from the Shining, that I actually just stopped reading Dr S about a third into the book, to reread Shining a second time. It made a LOT of difference! If I hadn't read the Shining, I still would have liked dr Sleep, but not nearly as much as the love I have for it now. A perfect end to a story that I didn't know was in need of a second phase!
