Stephen King Country

Stephen King has inspired fear and terror in readers and moviegoers for more than twenty years. Now you can experience firsthand the places that inspired the King of Horror. Visit the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado—the inspiration for the Overlook Hotel in The Shining. Travel to Maine and visit towns like Lishon Falls, which inspired the fictional town of Castle Rock in Needful Things, and Lewiston, where the high school set the stage for the fateful prom night in Carrie. And enter the haunting cornfields of Nebraska, where King set the chilling events of "Children of the Corn."
