In Doctor Sleep, you will see Danny Torrance (now Dan) as a grown-up adult who is still fighting with the past. Doctor sleep begins in 1980 when Dan shifts with his mom Wendy to Florida. There he is still haunted by the ghost from the Overlook hotel of “The Shining”, but he somehow manages to lock her in his mind by the teachings of the ghost Dick Hollarann. Later in 2011, he grows up to be an alcoholic to forget about his past and linger away from those memories. After settling in a small town, he makes friends with a man called Billy Freeman and starts to rehabilitate. He gets a job at a hospice, and there he is known for comforting patients through his shining. Therefore the people there name him “Doctor Sleep”. The movie will also see a vampire cult known as True Knot that kills people for their shining.
The movie revolves around Dan about how he manages to fight his demons and control himself. A new character known as Abra is introduced as well. Abra has shining that is more powerful than Dan’s. She can see bad events that are happening around her. She communicates with Dan telepathically.
Doctor Sleep is a promising movie with appropriate thrill and horror.
