Dan "Danny" Torrance was very young, his father, Jack, was hired as the winter caretaker of Hotel Overlook, which was a large resort hotel located in the Rockies, and took Dan and his mother to stay with him at the hotel during winter. Prior to their stay at the hotel, Dan discovered his psychic power and foresaw the evil spirits haunting around the hotel and his father's mental breakdown. At the hotel, Dan befriended with the hotel chef Dick, who had the same psychic power known as Shining.
As time went by, Dan became troubled by the evil spirits and ghost haunting around the hotel, and Jack was persuaded by the ghosts to kill Dan and his mother. With the help of Dick, they escaped the cursed place, while Jack's emotion went back and sacrificed himself to save Dan by blowing himself up with the hotel.
However, things didn't end here. A few years later, ghosts of Overlook Hotel went back to haunt Dan, even though the hotel had been burned to grounds and Dan had moved far away from Colorado. In order to deal with the ghost, Dick returned to Dan and mentored him to develop and fulfill the potential of his Shining skills, with which Dan successfully tackled the evil spirits.
Decades later, Dan became an alcoho-aholic like his dad due to his troublesome childhood memories and failures in life and career. But one day Dan found out a little girl with immerse Shining power called Abra, who was haunted by the True Knot--a tribe of ancient human-turned Demons that traveled around America in groups and relied on murdering children with the Shining and consuming their souls to survive. In an attempt to break himself free from his childhood experience and regain confidence at the lowest point of his life, Dan decided to help the girl and fight against the demons. By using his Shining power and intelligence, Dan succeeded in defeating and eliminating the entire demon tribe and regained hope in life.
