Further on in the film Kubrick shows Jack being sent into the forbidden Room 237 to inspect the room to see if there was anyone in there, after Danny comes back extremely disheveled with bruises around his neck claiming that a strange woman had strangled him in Room 237. Kubrick uses a variety of camera shots, sound techniques and symbolism to show Jack being triumphed by an evil and unstable mind. In the scene Jack is shown to be confronted by a young, beautiful, naked woman stepping out of the bathtub, who he becomes intimate with, however the audience only ever sees the woman through a point of view shot from Jack’s perspective, which makes the viewers unsure of whether or not she is another figment of Jack’s imagination much like Lloyd.

Later on in this scene Jack is shown to be stalking Wendy up the main staircase as she frantically swings a bat at him trying to keep him away, at this moment Jack is shown in a over the shoulder shot from Wendy’s perspective, in this shot Kubrick shows Wendy to be looking down on Jack in a high angle shot, this suggests to the audience that Jack’s unstable mindset and his
