There are two little details in The Shining that have always added to the mystery for me.

The large poster in the game room that simply says, "Monarch." Strange. Lots of people have noticed this.



The other one that I've never seen any commentary on is that Danny is wearing a Dayton Flyers jacket at his introduction to the hotel.



Being from Dayton, I always wondered what the point was of this feature. There is no indication the Torrances were driving from Ohio to Colorado. I can't even find out where they are coming from.

Dayton is huge in aviation, but I wouldn't necessarily equate it with the Moon Landing in any way. The most famous aspect of Dayton as it relates to "Conspiracy Theory" is Hangar 18 on Wright-Patterson AFB, the location to which the wreckage from Roswell was taken for examination.

It's set in Colorado. That's an actual ski resort in Colorado. The poster is of someone skiing. They're in the mountains.

Meticulous set decoration that includes local flair to help distinguish a setting is not very strange.


And as someone who is from neither Dayton nor Philly, I assumed that was a Philadelphia flyers jacket. I think 99% of people probably would guess the same. Not saying you're wrong though.

Supposedly, Jackie Gleason was shown alien remains at Wright-Patterson

The poster says "Ski Monarch". It's a ski lodge and pass in Colorado, the same state as the movie. It's not even slightly strange.
