I heartily recommend Doctor Sleep, King’s jump sequel to The Shining, featuring a grown up Dan Torrance. I agree with the comment above that it’s Jack Torrance’s weaknesses, particularly his alcoholism, that attract the Overlook’s ghosts, and King has said that Doctor Sleep is partly based on the premise of what would have happened if Jack Torrance had been in AA, rather than practicing white-knuckle sobriety.
