This movie is more creepy than actually horror. It's mostly just hallucinations of ghosts the residents are having. Everybody knows the famous scene of "here's Johnny," too and this is the movie it originated from. Also, I do enjoy the fact that this is based off of a book and an actual place you can stay. It's called 'the Stanley hotel.' Lots of the characters you see in the movie are what ghosts have said they've seen roaming the halls in the hotel.

Here's the google explanation of the movie:

Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) becomes winter caretaker at the isolated Overlook Hotel in Colorado, hoping to cure his writer's block. He settles in along with his wife, Wendy (Shelley Duvall), and his son, Danny (Danny Lloyd), who is plagued by psychic premonitions. As Jack's writing goes nowhere and Danny's visions become more disturbing, Jack discovers the hotel's dark secrets and begins to unravel into a homicidal maniac hell-bent on terrorizing his family.

Highly recommend this movie, not really scary though. This movie doesn't have a lot of gore but it's mainly just a bunch of 'creepy' characters.
