A Goodreads user asked this question about Doctor Sleep (The Shining, #2):

I didn't read the "Shining," but in the movie, Dick Hallorann is attacked by Jack Torrance's wielding ax, and I presumed he died...Does he survive in the book?

Shefali Mallya Shining is the mind-blowing book and the movie is great.
What I feel in the book Danny's personality is strong compared to the movie.

What I feel in the book Danny's personality is strong compared to the movie.
Yes, Dick Hallorann survived in the book and Jack Torrance killed himself with his own wielding axe.
Some of the important incidents from the book are shown in the movie. But you should read the book.
You can read the books in 3 ways;
1 Read the book first and then watch the movie
2. Watch the movie and then read the book
3. You can read the book then watch the movie and then reread the book.
I fell in love with Stephen King after The Shining.
