Does anyone think that Misery and The Shining exist in the same universe?
The film Misery mentions about The "guy who went mad in a hotel nearby" The Shining movie is suppose to be set in Colorado like Misery the movie. So do you think they are actually connected in the same universe? -

Yeah, Stephen King stories are connected like that. In his story, The Library Policeman, a librarian says this: "Naomi is a regular. She borrows a great many romance novels - Jennifer Blake, Rosemary Rogers, Paul Sheldon, people like that.' She lowered her voice and said, 'She says they're for her mother, but actually I think she reads them herself."

I love it when Stephen King does this too!
At the beginning of "Rose Madder", Rose reads "Misery's Journey" by Paul S.
Norris Ridgewick from "Needful Things" has a cameo at the end of "Bag of Bones" (book, not movie).
A character even asks Norris how Alan Pangborn and Polly Chalmers (hero/heroine from "Needful Things") are doing.

Dolores Claiborne from the book of the same name and Jessie Burlingame from "Gerald's Game" have quasi-out of body experiences where they both see each other in their minds during the solar eclipse of the summer of 1963.
