![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Working at the hospice alongside a prescient feline companion, Dan can sense and ease death. Here though, his powers do give some solace even as they rend his nights. His old life, what he did in the powerful grips of his desire for alcohol, haunts him just as much as these semi-real bogies and Dan isn’t sure if he can or wants to make it through this life sober. The problem is that without the bottle, his visions and predictions are coming back and they are blood soaked and grim. Now in the seemingly sleepy town of Rivington, a miniaturized dwelling complete with adorable train, Dan has a new life with Alcoholics Anonymous. Sometimes, you have to crash and burn before you can fly, a mangled Icarus coming back to life. Recalling his father’s temper, his struggle with alcoholism, and the human demons that live in us all, Dan finds himself taking the same path, transforming from informed child to a man haunted by his own supernatural powers and desperate to drown them all in a bottle, just like dear old dad. They say history is doomed to repeat itself, and for Dan that is no lie, but a waking horror. It has been many years since the creeping horrors of the Overlook Hotel have visited Danny, now Dan, Torrance, but the legacy of evil lives on in Doctor Sleep. ![]()
