Connections
Cat's Eye
Cujo and Christine have cameos.


Pet Sematary
In Pet Sematary (1989), there is a poster containing a warning for rabies alongside a picture of Cujo.


11.22.63
Christine has a cameo. The exact car from the 1983 movie was used.


Randall Flagg from the 1994 adaptation of The Stand appears, as does a reference to the Captain Trips virus, suggesting that The Stand might be set within the apocalyptic future of 11.22.63. Redrum appears on a wall as a reference to The Shining.


The Dark Tower
The Overlook Hotel from The Shining (1980) appears in a portrait. The poster Andy used to cover up the hole in the wall from The Shawshank Redemption appears, with it being the one from the film rather than what the book described. A toy car of Christine appears, even having a matching licence plate. The book Misery's Child appears, though it technically hasn't been written by the main universe Paul at this point.


Randall Flagg appears, albeit played by a different actor and separate from what was depicted in The Stand. It is still reasonable to assume the two versions are one and the same.

IT
Christine's licence plate appears in IT Chapter Two.


In IT: Welcome to Derry, Dick Hallorann appears, as does Shawshank prison.

Castle Rock
Shawshank prison is a major location. A picture of Warden Norton from The Shawshank Redemption can seen seen. His suicide is alluded to.


Jack Torrence is implied to have used an axe, a detail exclusive to The Shining (1980). The Overlook Hotel is still standing in 2018, which only works with the movie ending. Diane Torrence is the niece of Jack Torrence.

The events of Cujo are referenced, though contradict the film and fit with the book more. A short tie-in video set in 1981 has a poster showing that Cujo was lost at the time, with his collar appearing on the ground. This seems to imply that Cujo happened in 1981 differently than how we saw in the 1983 movie, but for continuity reasons, this is ignored.

Despite creating timeline anachronisms with the setting of Misery, Lizzy Caplan confirmed that she's playing a younger version of Kathy Bates' Annie Wilkes. The in-universe book Misery's Love, exclusive to the Misery movie, appears in the final episode.

Ace Merrill appears in the show, with Paul Sparks implying that he's playing a continuation of the character from Stand by Me (1986).

The Road to "Castle Rock" Season 2: Paul Sparks, Matthew Alan Interview

With Hulu's "Castle Rock" set for a second, "Misery"-filled season this week, we spoke with Paul Sparks and Matthew Alan about what viewers can expect...

bleedingcool.com

I also think that, you know, if you saw Stand by Me, and you imagine, like, where is Ace Merrill now? I mean, granted, you know, you can do the time, however you do it, but, that, imagine that he's now, you know, in his 40s, like, where do you think he is? And that's where he is. You know what I mean? You're right, that's exactly the person you're dealing with, and, if you think about psychologically, like, how does a kid end up like Ace Merrill was in Stand by Me? Well, because of the family that was around him, because of the communities he's in, and they have aged, and everybody is exactly where you think they are.

Just to note, Paul is actually playing an 82 year old Ace Merrill. While that seems weird, it matches with the ages of Leanne Chambers (the wife of Richard Chambers) and Josef Desjardins (the brother of Vince Desjardins), who are both an appropriate age for how long it's been since Stand by Me.

'Salem's Lot
Christine makes an appearance. The creators confirmed that this shares continuity with that film and the IT franchise.

So... The Shawshank Redemption was a big timeline investment. So much narration... we never even find out how Red's telling it!

The Road to "Castle Rock" Season 2: Paul Sparks, Matthew Alan Interview

With Hulu's "Castle Rock" set for a second, "Misery"-filled season this week, we spoke with Paul Sparks and Matthew Alan about what viewers can expect...

bleedingcool.com

Around 9 minutes into the interview, they say that Ace Merrill in Castle Rock is essentially supposed to be what the audience would expect him to be decades after Stand by Me (1986) but in his 40s... well, if it were connected to the movie, he'd be in his 50s (according to the Stephen King wiki, anyway), but the age would match a whole lot better than the one from The Body... who also died way before Castle Rock would happen.

Edit: Hm... nevermind. I think Ace is 23 in 1959 in Stand by Me. The Stephen King wiki places his birthday in 1963 because they think he was born 23 years before 1986, the release year... so, basically, the age doesn't match one bit.

@BMarrow You might find this interesting for your personal lists and what not.

 

[Pro Bot]

I think that Castle Rock makes Stand by Me, The Dark Half, and Needful Things probably non-canon due to Alan Pangborn and Ace Merrill. Even Misery, which I've included at the moment, is questionable by it's very nature.

Maybe between when he gets the bus and when he gets to Andy

In my opinion he's probably older then he looks, there's a lot of people like that

 

[Pro Bot]

Ace Merrill in his 80s with an even older uncle Reginald Merrill? I... guess?

 

[Pro Bot]

23 Years Old


82 Years Old


Sure, I guess. They just fucked up on the timing in that interview because it's not Ace in his 40s.

 

[Pro Bot]

The issue would then be that Castle Rock isn't located in Maine in Stand by Me, but that's not an uncommon continuity error to be fair.

 

[iceman109]

Why did you choose 2043 for the setting of Misery?

 

[Pro Bot]

Maybe you're right.

Leanne Chambers

Leanne Chambers is Henry Deaver's client. She is sentenced to death for killing her husband, Richard Chambers. Henry attempts to get off death row, but is unsuccessful. Leanne Chambers is played by Phyllis Somerville in the Castle Rock television series.

stephenking.fandom.com

She's probably around the same age as her husband, who was in Stand by Me/The Body, so logically Ace should be around the same, too. They just fucked up on the age or wanted a younger actor, probably.

 

[Pro Bot]

Josef Desjardins

Josef Desjardins is the brother of Vince Desjardins. Josef Desjardins is portrayed by David Selby in the Castle Rock television series.

stephenking.fandom.com

More evidence that Ace should be older than he looks.

 

[Pro Bot]

Why did you choose 2043 for the setting of Misery?

2043 was useless speculation. 2024 is based on the age difference of the actresses. I think it probably works fine...

 

[selfishmisery]

Glad that King relented and allowed The Shining film being canon.

I know the book is more personal for him, and that's fine for the book to remain that way. Kubrick made The Shining in its best possible form, which excluded what King preferred too, and that's fine.

IT: Welcome to Derry actually matches Dick Hallorann's age perfectly with The Shining film adaptation.

In any case, it all has to relate. Christine (1983) is confirmed canonical to IT (2017) and 'Salem's Lot (2024) based on the licence plate in IT Chapter Two, the cameo in 'Salem's Lot, and confirmation of a shared movie universe for 'Salem's Lot relating to the movie adaptations. Christine appears as a toy car with the same licence plate in The Dark Tower, which features the Overlook Hotel from Kubrick's film in a framed photograph. The Dark Tower, being a sequel to the novels, actually canonises The Shining's movie adaptation within the multiverse of the books.

Just based on existing connections, Kubrick's The Shining has to be connected to the most recent popular adaptations.

Cat's Eye is set in August 1984. I believe that the hard to read date on General's termination approval letter is 8/16/84. Don't worry, he didn't die. I guess Cujo must be shortly after since I believe that's set in Summer.

If Cujo has a 1983 date, I'm gonna cry by the way.
