We've got another new door, people! This one is going to the Overlook Hotel in Colorado at the end of November 1978, and we've got it for a week. Very fancy doors. I didn't stick my head through, so I don't know what it's like. I didn't want to risk scaring anyone.

Oh that should be interesting. It's a pity that it's only for a week.

Well, you should be able to step through the door without scaring anyone as long as the Torrances are not in the area where the door is. I wouldn't want to give it away.

I know it collects souls. I am curious why it does, and if these souls can be released.

It does it because it wants to be stronger. And it depends on what you mean by released.

Well, essentially a structure can't be evil. It would only become that way through rituals performed within. And I mean freed. I know the hotel burns, or explodes, those souls could still be trapped regardless of the state of the hotel.

I don't much care how or why the Overlook became evil, but it was. Is. And it explodes, yeah. Most of the ghosts pass on at that point. A few hang around.

But all the souls that it has are not evil. At least they didn't start out that way. Though I have my doubts about Horace Derwent. He may have been the one that cursed it. Or he's the demon that was summoned. The only way to find out is to meet him.

And I don't know if they did this in your timeline, or if it was for the Television series only, the hotel was supposed to be rebuilt. And if Horace stuck around, he could have restarted his collection.

Horace Derwent didn't curse it. It was evil since it was built and that was back in 1910 or so. He didn't show up until after the second World War.

Of course there's a TV series as well. That's just

The hotel was not rebuilt in my timeline, no. And Horace didn't stick around. He followed me. Same as Mrs Massey.

Perhaps the original owners did it, while it was being built, because it would have to be on the slab or in the basement. Because I know it burned down once before.

I figures those two sick puppies would follow you around. It's not enough that they torment a child.

I have a book of the dead, I can put them down for good, and remove the curse. I'll protect you if you wish to come and see your father.

It shouldn't. You've already experienced all the horrors.

Yes he is. I don't know how we would explain to him who you were and why we were there, but maybe by this point he's drifted far enough that we could be 'spirits'.

I'm pretty certain there's gonna be more horror to come But it could stop it for the Danny through the door? And his mom and dad?

I know what to tell him.

I can hope, but that is my goal. And to put the souls that don't deserve such a fate to rest.

What would you tell him?

It explodes on December 2nd. Everything starts ramping up about three days before that, so he might still listen now. I think my dad had... Has? a bit of the shining. So yeah, we can be spirits. But I'll tell him I'm Danny's invisible friend. Hopefully, that'll work.

Your father is. And that's more than enough. Plus... You were just a child. Vengeance for that child needs to be had.

You know, I've met a lot of dead people. They do seem to run low on morals. Yourself and maybe a handful of others excepted.

I know. Chicago doesn't exist in my world anymore because the lack of morals in certain dead, that are now permanently dead.
