** "Hey did you know ''RWBY'' is in ''Doctor Sleep''?"[[note]]Some RWBY fans watching Doctor Sleep for the first time tend to be surprised by the references in the film and post about it on r/RWBY...much to the amusement of the people there who have already seen the movie, leading it to become an inside joke on the subreddit to use it to respond to old news[[/note]]

* CompleteMonster: [[WouldHurtAChild Andy Halloran]], the "Black Grampa", was Dick's [[GruesomeGrandparent horrible grandfather]], who gave Dick his first glimpse at evil. A child molester and sadist who enjoyed targeting his own family, Andy abused his own son before turning his attentions to Dick, subjecting the boy to molestation, cruel tricks, and genital torture. Going so far as to [[CigaretteBurns put out lit cigarettes on Dick's skin]], Andy held the promise of his wealthy inheritance over the Halloran family to get away with his abuse, only to [[SpitefulWill spitefully leave it to charity]] to hurt his family. Andy's spirit was so wicked that [[GhastlyGhost it continued to haunt Dick after Andy had died]], his ghost continuing to sexually accost Dick to satisfy his hatred and lust.

* CompleteMonster: [[HellHotel The Overlook Hotel itself]] is a [[GeniusLoci sapient]], [[EldritchLocation pure evil structure]] whose only desire is to consume "steam" energy and host a party that never ends. Filled with the spirits of those who have died on its grounds, the Overlook keeps these haunted souls as its puppets and uses them to further terrorize and harm guests, bolstering the Overlook's ranks of enslaved dead. Empowered by those who "shine" the brightest, the Overlook drove the caretaker Delbert Grady to slaughter his entire family and then himself years before, and tries to replicate the bloodbath by corrupting [[Film/TheShining Jack Torrance]] to kill his family so as to claim young Dan's steam for itself. Reawakened years later by Dan in an attempt to stop Rose the Hat, the Overlook torturously devours Rose and her steam before immediately turning on Dan and possessing him, using him to terrorize and try to cleave Abra in half with an axe before dropping its masks and revealing its true, sadistic, prideful self to the girl. The Overlook is driven by [[ForTheEvulz sheer cruelty]] and hunger for power, proving itself to be the worst threat that Dan Torrance ever faced.
