If the phone lines went down (as they did in the movie) wouldn't that mean there would be a good chance cable lines would be knocked out too? No TV. No internet.
Cell service might be spotty or out also.
I don't think I could do it. -

I'd have to bring some DVDs with me but 5 months worth would be a lot. I imagine I wouldn't have room to bring them all so I'd probably have to watch the same ones over and over. If they didn't even have a DVD player I'd be doomed.

I agree & also porn films just in case, there is no internet access unless some hot naked girl is waiting for me in the bath tub that doesn't turn into an old bag
I Love Debi Sue Voorhees

I would. Being alone in an isolated place and having a huge facility at my complete disposal has always been one of my favourite fantasies; a bit like being the only person alive on Earth, and having the resources of a whole planet to pick from

Sign me up.
I imagine an old hotel like that has a fabulous library (or would have in 1980). You could probably read a lot of what is on the shelf that interests you while tending to the boilers and fixing broken things.
Plus, the Snowcat would have been fun in between snow falls.
You could make some major gourmet meals in that kitchen too.
Sounds like the perfect job for me actually.
Conquer your fear, and I promise you, you will conquer death. -

I'm not entirely sure if I would do it. But I would definitely consider it. I'm somewhat of a misanthrope who isn't good it, or enjoys socializing with other people. I have often been keen on living as a hermit, somewhere I'd have little to no contact with others. So it would definitely appeal to me in that respect.

"I have no recollection of that."the obscene spectre Delbert Grady.
It seems that a lot of the posters here didn't really watch/understand the film at all, are all unconsciously envious of Jack Torrance.
STUART ULLMAN:
Well, obviously some people can be put off by the idea of staying alone in a place where something like that actually happened.
JACK TORRANCE:
Well, you can rest assured Mr. Ullman, that's not going to happen with me! And as far as my wife is concerned, I am sure she'll be
absolutely fascinated when I tell her about it. She's a confirmed ghost story and horror film addict!
You want to be(come) another Jack Torrance -

Are you asking if one would take a job at a haunted hotel like the Overlook, or a non-haunted one?
Either way, I'm not sure if I would enjoy it. Big empty houses kind of creep me out, and this would be that X 100.
