Jack Torrance, his wife Wendy, and their young son Danny move into the Overlook Hotel, where Jack has been hired as the winter caretaker.

Evil forces residing in the Overlook--which has a long and violent history--covet young Danny for his precognitive powers and exploit Jack's weaknesses to try to claim the boy.
