The prop axe used in some of 'The Shining’s' scariest scenes in 1980 and is now up for sale at U.K.-based Paul Fraser’s Collectibles for $73,823.
The prop axe had a pivot role in some of “The Shining’s” scariest scenes in 1980 and is now up for sale at U.K.-based Paul Fraser’s Collectibles for 45,000 pounds or C73,823.
According to Paul Fraser’s website, the lightweight, hard foam axe was substituted for the original wooden axe as a safety measure and for ease of use during filming. It would have been used in long shots and when two or more characters were on screen.
The axe is said to be in good condition by the Collectibles’ store and comes mounted as part of a display, behind anti-glare conservation glass, to “ensure the piece has incredible eye appeal for decades to come.”
