The Shining didn't scare me a little...it scared me ALOT.....I was so terrified of the movie trailer for it...that I knew when it was coming instantly when I heard the beginning ..and I would run out of the room, and hide in the laundry room, with my hands over my ears. I was too scared to even touch the knob on the TV to change the channel.

I was in 2 mazes this summer that were made of hedges...and all I could think of was the Shining...that was the scene that scared me...was him chasing the little boy through the maze.
