Considered the Minotaur today for #FolkloreThursday . Wandered a short way into the lore, became wonderfully sidetracked in that dark, twisting realm. Carl Jung called the Labyrinth a symbol of our journey thru our own psyche, to reach the Self at the heart of the Maze. 1/ 
Freud had a darker take: We are all trapped within the Labyrinth of our own unconscious.
Point is: _We_ are the scariest Monster. We create our mental Labyrinth, running through the dark from our worst fears, summoned and magnified by that dark maze. #FolkloreThursday 2/

The real Labyrinth in THE SHINING is also metaphor. Can’t unsee Jack looming over the model hedge maze, Wendy & Danny playing in it outside - all contained within the twisted maze of Jack's own madness and the haunted Labyrinth of the Overlook Hotel. #FolkloreThursday 3/
