7. The Stanley Hotel - The Shining

By all accounts, Halloween + hotel should equal some sensational fun. And maybe in most cases, it would. This is not one of those cases, despite the thrill of having to outrun an axe-wielding Jack Nicholson in a giant hedge maze. Or maybe you could team up with the creepy twins and see how well that works out for you, going from room to room pleading for candy and getting petrifying shrieks instead. And how could we forget the magic floor that bestows upon you rivers of blood? Oh, the Stanley Hotel, you shouldn't have!

Cameron Carpenter is an aspiring screenwriter, current film and journalism student, and self-diagnosed cinephile, which only sounds bad in certain circles. Devoted fan of comics, movies, theater, Jesus Christ, Sidney Lumet, and Peter O'Toole, he sometimes spends too much time on his Scribd and comicbookmovie.com, but doesn't think you're one to judge, devoted reader. You can follow him on Twitter to watch him talk to people you didn't know exist. Oh, and Daredevil is quite the big deal around here (my head).
