The Shining Chapter 7 Summary

How It All Goes Down

In Another Bedroom

Danny wakes up. The echo of the drunken, crazy voice in his head: "Come out here and take your medicine! I'll find you! I'll find you! (7.1).
Danny gets up and looks out the window for Tony.
It's 2 am.
He hears Tony calling him, and he sees a "shadow standing by the bus stop" (7.13)
He stands there by the window for "a minute? an hour?" (7.16).
He doesn't see Tony, so he gets back in bed, and under the covers.
The shadows from the streetlight want to "drag him down into a blackness where one sinister word flashe[s] in red" (7.17) That word is "REDRUM" (7.18).
