today's adventure brings me
0:03
to the small town of only 5 000
0:05
residents
0:06
in north carolina
0:08
of wadesboro
0:11
where one of well i have a lot but one
0:14
of my favorite horror films
0:18
took place
0:19
back in the summer of 86 movie came out
0:22
in 87 the sequel
0:24
to a classic
0:29
turn this around
0:29
evil dead too
0:30
welcome everyone adam the woo here
0:33
scott on tape is also
0:36
tagging along
0:38
i love the franchise ash all of that
0:42
tv series that came out after it but i
0:43
would say
0:45
a tie between the original sometimes
0:47
like flip back and forth and part two
0:50
do you care for the film how are you on
0:52
the level of evil dead status well
0:55
i mean i'm a huge fan of polyshock so i
0:58
celebrate his entire catalogue so i
0:59
haven't missed one film you think about
1:01
biodiver i am thinking about biodome ash
1:04
evil dead i love evil dead i love evil
1:06
dead too i love army of darkness people
1:08
thought it was a remake at first because
1:10
at the beginning kind of sort of working
1:12
great and then it goes off the rail and
1:14
it's not a reason it is
1:16
very similar a lot bigger budget than
1:19
the original nonetheless we are standing
1:21
in the town
1:22
where it was felt it's unbelievable
1:24
because this is a very very
1:26
small town to think that they came here
1:29
that long ago tell the story about who
1:30
the producer is and how that whole thing
1:32
happened well dino delorento is one of
1:33
our favorite producers who produce a lot
1:35
of classic 80s films we just did maximum
1:37
overdrive stephen king was making
1:39
maximum overdrive and then he loved love
1:42
evil dead right
1:44
but sam raimi couldn't get the financing
1:46
so stephen king took dean of the lorentz
1:48
out for dinner and said you should put
1:49
money behind this film right you should
1:51
do it so they did it but
1:54
uh de laurentiis had a contract with the
1:55
studio where he couldn't release
1:57
unrelated films uh unrated film right
2:00
unrated themselves unrated films so how
2:03
to change the production company names
2:06
where we get rosebud at the beginning
2:08
we're gonna go to some spots and
2:11
where the cabin
2:12
was in the woods see it from a distance
2:15
probably it's been removed and then also
2:17
go to where the set was built that's the
2:19
big one that's the big one that's
2:20
amazing we're gonna end with that i'm
2:22
inviting you to join me scott on tape
2:25
shall we
2:26
okay made the two-mile commute from that
2:29
sign over to diggs road to this property
2:31
which i knew i wasn't going to be able
2:32
to get on this is a private residence
2:34
and the house at the very end by the way
2:36
as a recording of this it is february
2:38
13th
2:39
sunday
2:41
2022. the house at the end of this
2:43
stretch at the top was used in the color
2:45
purple
2:46
which for the production of the horror
2:48
film was up there as well but really
2:50
they had two production facilities
2:53
the other next to the gym which i will
2:55
be going to a little bit later and
2:56
somewhere in the woods adjacent to this
2:59
is where the outdoor scenes from the
3:01
cabin stood there weren't a lot just
3:04
some of ash outside with linda when he's
3:07
in the puddle things like that and then
3:09
you know some kind of running through
3:11
the woods the low angles where they're
3:12
kind of showing the creature going
3:13
through the woods as it approaches the
3:15
cabin not a lot but a couple of
3:17
exteriors all that's been removed
3:20
someone actually bought the woodshed
3:22
five years ago and takes it to
3:23
conventions also very interesting that
3:26
diggs road in the corner of hollywood
3:28
road
3:29
is where this house is well just across
3:31
the way
3:32
and the rumor is that
3:34
where the cabin stood
3:37
was sold to some tree farmers and they
3:39
came in and bulldozed the the trees took
3:42
the trees away i don't know if that's
3:43
true that's all here saying rumor
3:55
but somewhere
3:55
over in that section there's some little
3:57
trees up there
3:59
but do not i cannot pinpoint the precise
4:01
spot
4:03
of where the cabin once was
4:05
somewhere on that property and here's a
4:07
view from
4:08
where they had the production office
4:11
where raymie and the rest of them were
4:14
and obviously from
4:15
spielberg's color purple that's the
4:17
house
4:29
just outside town a few miles
4:29
continued on a little further just a
4:31
couple miles to lylesville
4:38
where this was not used in the film at
4:38
all but i want to point out this water
4:40
tower in the distance but there's an old
4:42
arcade over here and look at this this
4:45
looks like something that could be used
4:47
as a house from that genre of movies
4:50
and just down the way from here
4:52
is where the ending
4:54
of the movie took place the kind of
4:56
medievalish
4:57
when ash and his car drop in
5:00
and they're all praising him and then
5:01
right before the closing crowd
5:03
i'm doing this out of sequence but you
5:05
get the idea lylesville
5:07
a couple miles away if for some reason
5:09
you get sucked into a time portal
5:12
you might end up here over this
5:14
grassy berm
5:17
that turns into
5:19
the medieval era
5:22
where if your name is ashley
5:25
you and your car
5:27
could it's kind of kind of steep up here
5:28
oh man could
5:31
drop into this
5:34
now the interesting thing is often the
5:35
distance is a crane
5:37
that is the similar type of crane that
5:40
they hoisted the prop car up on and
5:43
dropped
5:44
into this pit now it has been
5:47
several decades
5:49
since they were out here
5:51
filming that scene
5:57
so none of the dirt piles are going to
5:57
match up but you can definitely see and
5:59
tell
6:00
this is it in fact it looks something
6:02
like if we were down in the water area
6:05
looking up
6:06
they built a medieval castle prop set
6:10
either on this side
6:12
or maybe even up on that big berm of
6:14
dirt over there
6:20
this does not look like north carolina
6:20
at all like right like
6:22
everywhere around us does
6:23
this is incredible but yeah don't take
6:25
that step down
6:28
that is that would not be good
6:30
to head straight down into there
6:32
i'll show a couple behind the scenes
6:34
photos i found as well
6:36
when they're out here
6:37
it's just it's the very end it's a very
6:39
insane yeah i've been to a lot of
6:41
filming locations for my channel i i
6:43
honestly this is blowing me away pretty
6:46
cool look of it and define that you
6:48
found it
6:50
and the look of it this is incredible
6:53
wow
6:55
and this basically would be the lead-in
6:58
to army of darkness which was the third
7:00
one and here's the whole cast and crew
7:02
getting a photo op below that little
7:04
dirt berm there with the
7:06
fake castle they built at the top
7:08
also here is a view from kind of where
7:11
we were standing across the trees
7:13
at the fake castle and
7:15
the car there as it's being hoisted to
7:18
drop in
7:22
for that last moment and a couple more
7:22
building the facade out of wood there
7:25
see the trees off in the distance top of
7:26
the hill
7:27
as well as this looking back the other
7:29
way
7:30
up on the top of that dirt hill from the
7:32
bottom level
7:33
and as we're sitting here about to pull
7:35
away we're kind of thinking it was built
7:37
right here because obviously
7:39
the truck construction trucks and stuff
7:40
would have been right here from
7:43
the street side
7:44
and the trees off in the distance kind
7:46
of match up almost exactly match up with
7:48
the higher on the left lower on the
7:50
right true
7:56
yeah take a look at this road
7:56
heading towards the airport now very
7:58
small airport in this area
8:01
and these trees have a life of their own
8:04
as well
8:11
and just for about a minute or two seen
8:11
right over here is where annie and her
8:13
research partner professor ed
8:16
showed up on the plane
8:22
in this very building
8:22
here at the anson county
8:24
airport right along there
8:26
with a field elevation of 305 feet it is
8:30
very very windy out here
8:31
let me know if you're going to be hear
8:32
what i'm saying i have my hand cupped
8:34
over the microphone
8:35
but that is the the same angle where she
8:38
walks out of the plane
8:40
and they start to head over
8:42
to the cabin
8:44
the airplane would have pulled up right
8:46
there
8:47
this is about eight miles north
8:50
of the last spot the most climactic spot
8:52
that we're going to spend the most time
8:54
at
8:54
about eight miles north of there
8:56
we should note that there's only one
8:58
plane
8:59
there's only one plane on the one plane
9:01
here only one plane one plane and here's
9:04
what the scene looked like there they're
9:05
about to load the
9:07
their luggage in the back of the car you
9:09
can see the the bay doors
9:12
from the little airport hangar there
9:14
yep still looks the same that's more
9:16
zoomed in though
9:18
yeah i kind of thought maybe
9:20
could see a plane taken off and landing
9:23
i don't think that's good there's the
9:24
one plane over there in the distance
9:26
just the one plane there off on the
9:28
horizon
9:29
as a recording of this it is a sunday
9:31
maybe no one in this area flies in and
9:33
out on the weekend
9:35
or maybe in february or maybe just at
9:37
all out of here
9:39
and this is that this is kind of out
9:41
here oh yeah
9:52
also noticing in this area there's a
9:52
very unique smell outside there's also a
9:56
lot of cow pastures
9:58
that's what it is no that's not that's
10:00
not you out there
10:02
all right well
10:05
i just wasn't sure
10:11
a lot of cows out there
10:11
i can even see it making this turn down
10:14
there behind this newer
10:16
building which appears to be
10:18
a church of some sort now it is later in
10:20
the day currently 3 30 so i believe
10:23
whatever service they had earlier the
10:24
congregation has already left
10:27
but down at the end at the bottom of
10:29
this hill
10:31
is an abandoned structure that was a gem
10:35
that they built the sets of the cabin
10:38
i am starting to get really
10:40
excited i should also mention i had
10:42
heard about this
10:44
but i never knew that you could gain
10:46
access to it until about six months ago
10:48
a friend of mine
10:49
tampa jay was here
10:51
so give a little shout out to him
10:52
because he
10:53
was the one who informed me
10:55
that this was still
10:59
not only standing
11:01
for posterity i want to document this
11:03
because this place looks like
11:04
it could be torn down at any moment
11:07
and he also let me know that it is open
11:09
the side doors
11:11
windows everything none of the boards
11:13
are up you can just walk right in
11:14
so that's what i'm gonna do
11:21
look at this okay as we're approaching
11:21
i also want to mention that there's a
11:22
lot of behind the scenes footage that is
11:24
out there on the interwebs
11:26
of the entire cast and crew
11:29
kind of congregating over in this area
11:32
come a little bit closer in fact
11:35
this this building that's abandoned that
11:36
we're going to be able to go inside
11:38
over here was the second production
11:41
office there's the one that was where
11:43
the exteriors of the cabin were but over
11:45
here i will kind of line up a few a few
11:48
frames of showing where greg nicotero
11:51
was walking by here sam raimi some of
11:53
the actors actresses were all walking
11:56
over in here
11:57
and they
11:58
used a lot of the props they made a lot
12:00
of the props inside had them stored
12:03
in this very building this one right
12:05
here on the left this one right here wow
12:07
they now have this awning but this
12:09
awning used to not be here and i found
12:12
some old photos
12:13
of them walking in and out of this very
12:16
door here
12:17
now these were all windows that are now
12:19
boarded up
12:21
but if you've seen and this franchise
12:24
has a
12:25
huge following yes there's a lot of
12:27
people who are really into it not just
12:28
me not just you but it is the not just
12:31
horror people but there are people who
12:32
specifically love this franchise and
12:35
they've probably seen some of the behind
12:37
the scenes stuff
12:39
this door right here this is almost as
12:41
important as what is in the movie itself
12:44
of them walking in and out of here
12:47
going on their lunch breaks
12:49
exiting out of here there's some home
12:51
video from back in the 80s 80s probably
12:54
summer of 86 movie came out in 87 of
12:56
them walking in and out of this fairy
12:58
door i'm hoping we can go around and get
13:01
coming in and out of here and just see
13:03
what's on the other side
13:04
but they walk into here
13:06
in fact the oldsmobile i believe it was
13:08
an oldsmobile that was the prop that ash
13:11
drove was parked right here on the side
13:13
of this road the same one that went
13:16
through the little time
13:18
time hole went back in time was dropped
13:21
over there from the crane
13:23
it was sitting right here
13:25
and someone lived in that little
13:27
abandoned house right there that's crazy
13:29
and there was a fence a chain-link fence
13:31
that went across here and this was not
13:33
even an active street
13:36
is it dirt was it a dirt road or what
13:37
was it dirt or it was just blocked off
13:40
by a fence and this was all one
13:42
big property and so this is a this is an
13:45
old school we're looking at because i
13:47
know that one of the classrooms was
13:49
changed into a chimney a gym this is the
13:52
gym no no no a personal gym for um
13:54
what's his name ash bruce campbell to
13:56
work on it
13:57
yeah one one classroom with the gym
14:00
yeah and that's why he's so ripped at
14:01
the end because he was working out every
14:03
day on set talk about his chin or his
14:04
body his body that chin was i don't know
14:07
how they did that let me show the photo
14:09
yeah right now i'm nerding out right now
14:11
oh me too standing right now uh we're
14:13
just trying the door i just want to say
14:15
that i've only seen one picture of
14:17
inside of here and adam's told me all
14:19
about what was filmed in here
14:21
i'm gonna go watching because i know
14:24
filming locations and i know how to find
14:26
places
14:27
but i can get easily frustrated inside
14:30
i'm going to be watching
14:32
the slew the master oh come on no come
14:34
on got the bathroom
14:37
to line up these shots inside because
14:39
you can see what it looks like inside i
14:40
know what it looks like already i
14:41
haven't looked inside but from the
14:42
picture how you're going to mash these
14:44
up it's going to be exciting to see all
14:46
right well i appreciate the voter
14:47
confidence man thank you yeah i'm
14:48
excited i'm really excited it's
14:50
interesting because this these were
14:51
glass windows over here those were all
14:53
glass windows let me show the photos but
14:56
this here there's no one on property at
14:58
the moment
14:59
oh there's cement oh there's cinder
15:01
block
15:03
look at that
15:04
yeah this sea i i
15:06
would assume that the city will tear
15:07
this down sooner than later you know in
15:10
the in this area you never know there's
15:12
a lot of dilapidated buildings that's
15:14
true that's a lot of them
15:16
but i feel like this needs to be
15:17
documented in great detail and late also
15:20
just think about it there's sam raimi
15:22
there with that look of what am i going
15:24
to film next what angle am i going to
15:26
use not even knowing
15:28
standing exactly
15:29
where this angle was with the oldsmobile
15:33
right there
15:34
looking down the hill
15:36
and the house behind him was the one
15:37
down kind of over in that area
15:40
before he was even really sam raimi like
15:42
he was sam
15:43
but he wasn't the damned to his friends
15:45
but he was not saying he was not the
15:46
world right
15:48
and in that photo was the chain link
15:50
fence this building over here really
15:52
fascinates me because when she's
15:54
recording the home video she goes oh
15:56
yeah people live over there and that
15:58
house is still standing
15:59
from that home video the behind the
16:01
scenes here is one of the crew
16:03
kind of waving to the person who's
16:05
recording the videos parents saying
16:07
hello
16:08
and behind him
16:10
is that house that is now empty
16:12
that i was just talking about so he
16:14
would have been like
16:16
hi mom hi dad right
16:20
and all that behind the scenes footage
16:22
if you can find it was all through here
16:26
like i said almost to me
16:29
being a fan of the the series just as
16:31
important as the movie that took place
16:34
almost 90 percent of the movie
16:36
directly behind what we're about to walk
16:37
into
16:39
pretty much the whole film and this is
16:40
the backside of greg nicotero who went
16:42
on to do a lot of stuff
16:44
romero's day
16:46
he is a main integral part of the very
16:49
popular tv show now walking dead
16:51
got his start working for tom savini
16:54
and one of his first major films where
16:57
he did a lot of makeup effects and
16:59
horrifying creatures on
17:01
was right here this is the the angle of
17:03
that photo they had the production truck
17:05
right here this has all been added
17:08
and they even did a little short film
17:10
called the evil dead baby
17:12
and they did it right inside this
17:14
two-story building
17:16
through this door which is all boarded
17:18
up
17:19
the doors obviously changed a lot
17:23
and over here there was kind of an
17:25
interesting concrete formation
17:27
which has been removed shown right here
17:29
so you see that's the interesting
17:30
concord concrete formation but there's
17:33
the door all the crews going in there to
17:35
get their lunch and there's this little
17:36
protrusion there
17:38
from that little
17:39
other side
17:41
and that's that little protrusion there
17:43
of the little side brick this might be a
17:45
little too covering this a little too
17:47
thoroughly about it you've got to even
17:48
this could be gone one day you never
17:50
know but i mean look at that
17:52
heavy bar yeah the door's not just
17:54
locked
17:55
that is secure
17:57
we're not getting in there yeah and this
17:58
is looking back the other way so this
18:00
production truck with even more of the
18:01
cast waving
18:03
little did they know that the world
18:04
would see this footage
18:06
later and analyze it in great detail but
18:09
the truck would have been right here so
18:11
they would have been standing waving
18:12
towards
18:13
that door which led into where the the
18:16
cabin
18:17
was built kind of the opposite angle and
18:19
the windows that are above the truck
18:22
are these windows
18:24
right up there now after looking at
18:25
another photo
18:27
the car the prop car
18:30
which who knows where that is probably
18:32
in a junkyard somewhere the prop car was
18:35
right here
18:36
along the side of this all actually it
18:38
was parked right not in the road but
18:40
right here on the side of this little
18:42
concrete embankment
18:44
with the windows
18:45
off in the distance kind of more like
18:47
this
18:48
because you can see the house you can
18:50
see the house off in the distance so
18:52
that's the angle there was an air
18:54
conditioned unit kind of popping out of
18:57
the side of those windows there and
18:58
there's the car and there's that house
19:00
now kind of just sitting there rotting
19:02
away off in the distance same angle same
19:05
everything
19:06
and as scott just pointed out the
19:08
windows are gone and it's been cinder
19:10
blocked over with the where the windows
19:11
here on the left are now here is the act
19:13
one of the other actors that were in it
19:15
and you could see that house off in the
19:18
distance that once again
19:20
that abandoned home which is you i'm
19:22
glad it's still standing because it
19:24
really proves that this was the spot
19:27
well one of the key landmarks right i do
19:29
stand corrected on one thing the photo i
19:31
showed to the other gentleman a moment
19:32
ago was not greg nicotera this is greg
19:34
nicotera
19:36
walking towards those ice machines in
19:38
the same area that was another cast
19:40
member which
19:42
could not pinpoint
19:44
exactly who it was but it wasn't greg
19:45
that the one i just showed was greg and
19:47
here is the prop for linda when she does
19:49
the dance sequence a little bit later
19:52
you know
19:53
dead-eyed zombie linda
19:55
and the crew member is carrying that
19:58
dummy right along there and you can see
20:00
the little stairwell up there
20:02
and everything that's the same angle
20:03
obviously that concrete embankment is
20:05
gone but
20:06
that's a pretty famous scene and the
20:08
time has come we're heading in
20:11
i want to get adam's reaction i want to
20:14
see adam's face
20:15
when he sees inside here i know he knows
20:17
it looks like
20:18
whoa
20:20
the other doorway looks a little better
20:22
to go into
20:24
my goodness
20:27
have you explained what this was
20:29
yes this is where the cabin was created
20:32
it was a gym and yes did you need all of
20:35
the cabin set was in here it was a
20:37
two-story
20:39
set because they could have the cellar
20:41
they could make things happen through
20:42
the floorboards
20:44
so what you're seeing in the movie the
20:46
first floor was on a second level and
20:48
i'll show you how it was set up in there
20:50
and where the stairs went up i'll try to
20:52
be in the same spots and maybe we can
20:54
recreate some scenes
21:03
oh my gosh wow
21:03
this place has seen better days you
21:05
think
21:07
i think this is the town almost the town
21:09
dump now you just come here and dad yeah
21:12
i mean look at this stuff
21:13
people just come and just discard
21:15
whatever they have but you can still see
21:16
old school chairs lots of them desks is
21:20
what is so awesome there are some behind
21:22
the scenes video and photo
21:24
of the set right here of bruce campbell
21:27
right here in the same spot on a harness
21:31
practicing the
21:32
circling around doing the stunts for
21:34
when he's gonna go through the time
21:36
portal
21:37
the cabin would have been right here the
21:38
two-story cabin the first set of stairs
21:41
was kind of right here wherever this
21:42
little desk thing is
21:44
going up cabin would have started here
21:46
and went over almost against that very
21:49
wall and that door which we need to kind
21:51
of make our way over there yeah that's
21:53
the door they wore they used in and out
21:55
to go in and out of over to the
21:57
makeshift production facility right so
21:59
to give perspective that door is on the
22:01
just where we were filming all that
22:03
other side on the other side okay here's
22:05
the photo of the actor
22:09
that was out front there
22:11
he kind of played like the hillbilly if
22:12
you will
22:14
because i believe he had some false
22:15
teeth that he used like that's how he
22:17
got the uh he got the gig but he's
22:19
helping
22:20
bruce campbell himself do his stunts but
22:23
notice up here the roof line and the
22:24
little banisters up top and those
22:27
windows that angle was right there with
22:29
the harnesses and everything and the
22:32
very unique roof line which is caving in
22:35
this is probably not the safest place to
22:37
wander around but gotta do it we gotta
22:40
do it this is
22:42
for poorer posterity that side there
22:45
just turning towards that right on that
22:47
corner
22:49
isn't that awesome
22:51
that's incredible that's right there so
22:53
think about it and see those windows
22:55
that was before bruce campbell was the
22:57
bruce campbell what's it it's almost
23:01
you can see the different color paint
23:03
even stuff right yeah you know
23:05
crazy
23:06
so kind of where
23:08
this guy over here in the jeans in the
23:10
corner is is where we are standing
23:12
looking so if this guy turned around he
23:14
would be looking at the staircase that
23:16
led up to
23:18
the far right side which would have been
23:20
about like this so you would have been
23:22
standing there from that angle you could
23:24
walk up a staircase and go across the
23:26
one photo i have we're gonna have to
23:28
walk over there to match up where the
23:29
cabin and the roof can be seen and the
23:32
green or blue screen used for the time
23:34
portal there's bruce in front of it
23:37
you see this kind of
23:38
window up here in the corner
23:41
that is from this angle you're kind of
23:43
in the same general area where the
23:45
ladder would have been so he was up on
23:47
the ladder
23:50
and the blue green screen whether
23:52
there's a blue wall
23:53
i thought it would be a green screen but
23:55
maybe they just have it excuse me it's a
23:57
green screen right right yeah so a green
23:59
screen but in the photo it's blue
24:02
and then up top here
24:04
is how you can really tell and then that
24:06
that corner window plus
24:08
when we walked in there was the one of
24:10
the actor helping him out
24:12
and would give kind of the same angle
24:15
going this way against these side
24:16
windows now after he got done practicing
24:19
those stunts they built another front
24:21
facade
24:23
of the cabin that they only utilized for
24:25
him flying through the door
24:27
through the time portal now look up top
24:29
here
24:31
the the railings it's in between those
24:33
two railings so over here you can see
24:35
how this protrusion of the railings go
24:36
up and down
24:37
that is directly above where i'm at
24:39
looking back kind of walked across the
24:41
gym to the other side which would have
24:42
been right about there
24:44
and the railings i was just mentioning
24:46
are those railings almost like
24:49
going right down the middle of those
24:50
railings i just showed
24:52
in the photo
24:54
now the one angle i have
24:56
the only photo i could see that was a
24:58
behind the scenes of the cabin itself
25:01
was taken
25:03
from this general area
25:06
so the cabin stretched from there
25:09
so if you would have walked in the door
25:11
right behind me
25:12
back in 1980 summer of 86
25:16
you would have seen the cabin
25:18
right here a two-story cabin
25:20
cellar right down here someone's in my
25:22
fruit cellar
25:29
and the top of the cabin above it okay
25:30
if the front of the cabin is right there
25:32
we walked in
25:33
where the cellar was kind of in the
25:35
middle just off to the left if memory
25:37
serves me correctly
25:39
so this would have kind of been where
25:41
this where the seller was someone's in
25:43
my fruit cellar
25:46
henrietta played by ted raymond
25:49
sam's brother
25:50
when he was very young he's only 20
25:52
years old his first acting gig
25:54
of course sam has gone on to make
25:55
spider-man i think he also did dark man
25:58
he has a legendary hollywood director
26:01
now
26:02
and really
26:04
it kind of started here in a way
26:06
obviously it was six years after the
26:07
first one and they did a movie in
26:09
between that but this one really kind of
26:11
catapulted him into
26:13
legendary status so below here this
26:15
could have been
26:17
where that wooden staircase was
26:19
with the rock wall beside it where
26:22
henrietta
26:23
is is you know chasing ash up right up
26:27
the staircase let me out let me out of
26:29
here and say unlock the chain
26:32
oh my gosh because we're getting closer
26:34
to that door that's the door that's
26:36
where they would have come in right so
26:37
we're right right now where we are
26:39
towards where the cabin was built
26:41
absolutely 100
26:43
so that is the front door when they're
26:45
going out and that behind the scenes
26:47
footage going out on lunch their lunch
26:49
break
26:51
these almost look like the the plates
26:53
that ash was smashing over his head when
26:55
the hand went when the when the hand
26:56
went a little nuts
26:58
they're not movie props none of this is
26:59
from the movie but
27:01
kind of fun to imagine yeah you kind of
27:03
think that you kind of your mind's
27:04
playing well my mystery should be
27:06
thinking that some of this could be but
27:08
it's just
27:14
so odd feeling being in here i'm also
27:14
noticing there's a big bay door right
27:16
here where they might have been able to
27:18
move stuff in and out
27:25
that's probably where they brought the
27:25
set pieces in for sure and built it i
27:27
mean those backed ones are way too small
27:33
to be a fly on the wall
27:33
i'm sure we're gonna find plenty of
27:35
flies on the wall here once again
27:37
nerding out a little too much but this
27:40
is probably the best to compare with any
27:42
of it
27:44
take a gander there at the windows over
27:46
to the far end of the wall
27:49
windows over here to the far
27:51
other side of the wall
27:53
and the banisters and the roof line
27:56
standing where i'm at if i had a wide
27:59
lens that was used to take this behind
28:01
the scenes photo
28:03
of the cabin
28:04
this proves that everything you see in
28:07
the movie
28:08
in the cabin was up on a second level
28:11
and anything that happened in the
28:12
basement the basement was behind that
28:15
wall on the bottom level so the seller
28:17
was here
28:19
with henrietta come to suite henrietta
28:24
all of it was right here in front of us
28:27
so in this general area here the cabin
28:32
i'm channeling bruce campbell and saint
28:34
raymie
28:36
just gotta be be careful of henrietta
28:38
and fun fact the last scene
28:42
that they did in here was when they
28:44
pretty much
28:45
had the engulfing of blood going
28:47
everywhere because it was so messy
28:50
that they they ruined the set so that
28:51
was the thing they did last and the
28:53
first one was the whole hand the knife
28:56
through the hand the chainsaw all that
28:58
from what i've heard that was the first
29:00
thing they did in here so first and last
29:01
that was the first and last scenes that
29:03
you did in there they kind of did it out
29:05
of order this place is full of lots of
29:08
remnants of the past like this doll head
29:11
there oh is that linda's head
29:14
is that linda's head where it's like it
29:16
bites ash's
29:17
hand
29:19
there's doll heads
29:22
stuffed animals and video teams
29:25
everywhere what if we found a videotape
29:27
of the movie well come over here with me
29:28
adam because i have to return some video
29:31
tapes by the way oh another movie
29:32
another another classic
29:34
oh no way what is that copy of the
29:37
sequel
29:39
scooby-doo
29:41
close
29:43
same genre
29:45
oh my gosh maybe that's where the that's
29:47
the headless doll i think so that's got
29:48
to be it okay we were mentioning this
29:50
outside so that is the door right there
29:52
that they exit in and out of
29:54
but there's another door another section
29:57
that they were also using
30:00
you know where some of the casts would
30:02
be kind of waiting for their scenes
30:04
and some of the crew will be back and i
30:05
think those still exist back behind
30:07
there so we should walk over there
30:13
yeah this is so dang we gotta watch
30:13
where you step
30:14
this isn't the safest area it goes from
30:16
hard to mushy very fast this is parts of
30:20
the roof that have caved in so
30:22
yeah not not the best option
30:33
i just stepped on something
30:33
okay going in
30:36
oh look at the paint we don't you don't
30:38
want to touch this
30:40
okay going into this room
30:43
this is all caved in
30:48
yeah it's hard to match any of this up
30:48
but they did have some kind of
30:50
couches and stuff sitting in some of
30:52
these rooms wow look at that and it
30:56
could have been this room or possibly
30:58
also a
31:00
there's also a wasp nest over there or
31:02
it could be the ones down over here the
31:03
next room over it's going to be tough to
31:05
get in this is pretty we have this
31:06
doorway over here or is that you think
31:08
that later
31:10
it could be let's go over there and see
31:12
again you got to watch where you're
31:13
walking
31:18
there are just dolls everywhere through
31:18
lamp shades i've seen a lot more lamp
31:20
shades in this area
31:22
i pooped on my head that's pretty funny
31:28
okay now this is all can't get through
31:30
i am just so happy to be in here right
31:44
used as a basketball gym obviously
31:44
in fact one of the basketball hoops is
31:46
still over there
31:48
probably have a tough time
31:50
you got something on you something
31:53
what is it
31:54
take a look
31:55
zoom in
32:02
oh i'm pin legs not pin head
32:02
i'm pin legs what is that i don't know i
32:05
don't know what i don't have them on oh
32:07
i do have them on me yeah you do
32:10
just so much happened right here in this
32:12
space
32:25
right here if you're looking for
32:25
mattresses come to the mattress king
32:27
i've got them all
32:28
how many mattresses you're the mattress
32:30
king i'm the match screen i saw
32:31
mattresses in waynesboro north carolina
32:34
look at this
32:38
did you show that house
32:39
yeah that's that's probably not safe
32:41
should probably be probably shouldn't be
32:43
underneath that
32:45
yeah i just got to put that out there
32:46
this is probably
32:48
not the best thing to be kind of walking
32:50
around it's not windy outside but if it
32:52
was like a strong storm going on i would
32:54
not want to be in here if there was a
32:56
strong wind
32:58
if there was a tornado in the area
33:00
don't be in here
33:02
because that roof is about ready to cave
33:03
out and also the interiors of the wood
33:05
shed of course the famous over dub
33:07
during that woodshed
33:09
which is a whole other
33:10
kind of legend of its own with
33:12
you know how bad the the overdub on that
33:14
audio was the interiors of the woodshed
33:17
would have been right over through here
33:19
which of course
33:21
what is that i don't know oh it's like a
33:24
potted plant
33:26
and of course the famous line you know
33:28
what famous line i'm talking about i
33:30
think so
33:32
i'm gonna add i'm gonna have it with my
33:33
piping hot caffeinated beverage
33:39
groovy
33:39
that's about an hour into the movie
33:41
right we finally when he finally says
33:42
like an hour in he don't have a chainsaw
33:44
now if i could find the chainsaw card
33:46
out here look
33:48
what are we looking at that's what he
33:49
took linda's head off with it's still
34:10
and that happened over there at the
34:10
other property where in the woods right
34:13
this is not screen used
34:15
no but it might be we don't know we
34:17
don't know we may or not put this on a
34:19
mantel
34:20
at my homestead
34:22
i'm not taking this with me but yeah
34:25
in memory of linda
34:31
oh look how cute this is right here i
34:31
swallow your soul i'll swallow yourself
34:34
swallow this
34:39
i thought you're gonna i don't want you
34:39
to fall off that chair that was good
34:40
though that was good
34:42
the snowman played a pretty good that's
34:44
probably a song
34:45
it's almost like snowman with a freddy
34:47
krueger outfit on yeah he's done got
34:49
adam's camera now and right around here
34:51
this is where henrietta is spinning
34:53
around on top of annie
34:59
until finally
34:59
up from the basement comes
35:12
let's go
35:12
all right one last little peek here who
35:15
knows if the next time i'm in this area
35:16
this will even exist anymore
35:19
bulldozers might come they have to clean
35:21
all this out first yeah this is like
35:24
a demolished thrift store
35:26
there's cash registers adding machines
35:29
you and i have been to a few abandoned
35:31
filming locations or locations where the
35:32
owners have given us permission to be
35:34
someone and once you're there or here
35:37
you don't want to leave
35:38
even if you've covered every square inch
35:40
it's like how often do you get access to
35:42
exactly it's incredible because every
35:44
inch of this had cast members crew
35:47
members and props
35:50
this is yeah this
35:52
the term might be overused horror
35:54
