- In this video you will see all of the exterior filming locations used for 1988 Tim Burton Classic Movie. Said to be the fictitious Town of Winter River, Connecticut. All shooting took place in the small Vermont Town of East Corinth, which is roughly 5 hours north of NYC.
First stop on this tour will be the spot where the house stood. Next you will see Village Road, where the Maitland's Hardware Store was located along with the Library, Firehouse, Church and Cemetery. The Winter River Bridge area will follow, sadly the original wooden relic is now a member recently deceased. We will return once more to the site where the house stood and then finish u[ the locations tour with the Girl's School. Stay tuned until the end of this video to see the original Bridge Cover seen in the film, and where and how it's being used today.
#Beetlejuice #FilmingLocations - Krátké a kreslené filmy
True story: I was hired as an extra in 1986 at Culver Studios for the Michael Jackson music video: “Smooth Criminal” and during one of the breaks, we all went outside and started talking with the actors who were shooting in the sound stage next door for a movie called Beetlejuice. We hung out with Jeffrey Jones (in his green dinner jacket from the famous shrimp scene), Catherine O’Hara and Winona Ryder. Who knew it would be a huge hit?
Thanks for sharing that awesome story, very cool!
What happened to the hiuse?
@@ce3586 Probably built for the movie and torn down. I don’t know for sure but that happens a lot. They build the structures but to save money they don’t build them to any safety codes to be permanent so it’s in the contract with the municipality that they have to completely remove it and leave no trace. Again, speculation, now I’m off to find out! 😂
Edit: Tim Burton's offbeat ghost story Beetlejuice took place in Connecticut, but it was actually filmed in East Corinth, Vermont. That great old house on a hill was just a facade built for the movie and later torn down.
What's cooler is you will tied with Michael Jackson dudeeee that's cooler than meeting or le for beatle juice
If I send something and include a stamped self addressed package, can you sign something for me. This is possibly the coolest thing I’ve ever heard and I’m willing to do almost anything to get into the “Cool Guy Club”
I'm glad to know I'm not the only one interested in such things.
As a kid growing up watching Beetlejuice everyday on VHS. these locations are engraved in my brain .still till this day my favorite movie. It's a Strange feeling to see these locations even on video. My subconscious recognizes as if I've been here before long ago. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Very cool to hear.. It sure is a one of kind classic.
My pleasure.. Thank you.
“He comes in, he’s got hair down to his goddamn shoulders... And he says to me just trim it a little...”
LOL
Nick, It's great how you put matching screenshots of then and now so comparisons can really be done in depth. So many "Film location" youtubers don't do that
Awesome feedback... I try to get it from a few different ways and shots.. Thanks a lot for appreciating the efforts!! Glad you enjoyed it.
The guy who did a goonies one did it pretty well also.
My aunt and uncle used to live about 4 miles away on Cheney 4 Corners road, back in ‘88 we saw the house on the hill that they built as a huge prop, but I don’t recall ever seeing the covered bridge. I do recall going into “Maitlands” (at the time of course it was McLam’s then I think it was Andy’s(?)), McLam’s was a tiny general store, I do miss it but I’m glad the history is still alive.
That's awesome! That must have been great to see and walk through during production. Very cool, thanks for sharing
The covered bridge is still standing at northeast slopes in waits river
Very cool thank you. Hasn’t changed much at all actually. I remember going to the theater to see this movie lol I was 20 years old. Going to be 53 this year. Time goes by in an instant. Don’t blind or you’ll miss it.
Well said.. Thank you!
That’s some beautiful countryside.
I would love to retire someplace like that ..
Pretty wild how a Volvo passes in real life as the clip of the yellow movie Volvo ends 3:24
Yes, that was
I was about to comment the say thing. Really neat!
As you're filming 3 minutes in, a newer Volvo drives by as you show the yellow Volvo from the film. Ironic
Hahaha yes, good catch.
Volvos are issued to Vermont constituents at birth.
It was also a 240. The one in the movie is a very early 240 wagon, probably a 76-77 model due to the flat hood and single round headlights. The one that went past in your video was a 1987-1993 body style sedan.
That's not what irony is but yes, that's a Volvo.
@@pckldplmfshcm You are correct. You must be fun at parties pointing out people's grammar mistakes. But what are the odds Mike? Thanks for the comment it was definitely necessary.
I’d give anything to see both the hardware and school buildings restored to their former glory and a replica house built in the same spot on top of that hill. Such a beautiful, iconic location deserves better.
I couldn't agree more. That would be special.
@@NickP wonder why they tore the Maitland old house down also that sundeck was waaaay weird...
@@ernestinemaloy8680 Yeah, it was so Burton lol. I imagine the property owners didn’t want it left standing. I guess if they knew it was going to become legendary they may have kept it up.
Give a couple hundred thousand and it can be done.
@@ernestinemaloy8680 it wasn't a real house - just a shell, with an inflatable roof, built specifically for the movie. The locals and film crew used the inside to play basketball.
I thought it was funny, as you showed the movie clip of the bridge, they were driving a Volvo in the movie, then when you cut back, a Volvo drove by...freaky! Wow, that store building is a wreck, they could fix it up, and have a tourist trap. Excellent video!
Agreed...haha good catch. I wish they would as well.. Thanks a lot Dave!
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice! Start to finish, EPIC. We always question how the heck you find these locations so many years later! The time, effort, traveling and so on has to be enormous to get to these amazing spots! You tell a great story, thank you for always keeping us entertained! 🤘
Thanks a lot!! Haha Sometimes I find them and other times I look them up but it can be tough. Labor of love, that’s for sure.. Have a Happy Halloween!!
Love the unimog at the old hardware store
Me too, I need that!!
They were US Army engineer's "SEE" Small Emplacement Excavator
trucks. I've rode in them while laying mine fields in the desert back in the day.
Looks like the whole town could use a coat of paint.
At 5:55 in the helicopter shot from the movie's opening credits you can see the open back of the false library facade at the bottom of the screen. Apparently it was only three-sided, leaving the back exposed with open framing and the existing library jutting out beneath it.
Interesting info.. Thanks a lot!
You just blew my brains out 😂🤯
I WAS HOOKED, HOOKED HOOKED!
ON BEETLEJUICE.
SO MUCH, THAT EVERY MORNING
I WOULD PLAY THE DVD, 2 TO 6 TIMES ADAY!!
THIS BETTER NOT BE A FLOP!!!
Hello, I enjoyed your production very much. Many years ago I made it a point to stop and see this location while on a huge cross country Harley ride. I saw a lot more through your work though. Particularly liked your transitions between the movie and now. Sad how the buildings are falling into such disrepair. Thanks for a neat episode.
That's great you were able to see them on your travels. I share your feelings on the buildings. Glad you enjoyed the video, many thanks!
This was interesting. Love me some BeetleJuice.
The house was already demolished.
That was Kevin's mom from Home Alone.
Another great job! Excellent job matching up the exact locations too. I was there several years ago but only had time to take some pictures. I appreciated how a well known movie was filmed in such a remote, small little town like this. It’s hardly changed much since then and probably won’t for many years to come.
I agree with your opinion on how something so big came out of something so small, amazing. I saw your video, upload for it..very cool! It has subtle changes and the feel of a ghost town. I really enjoyed the visit. BTW - I have to watch your Walking Dead Location Video in full... I've been dying to do that..pun intended, oh brother lol smh... Thanks a lot bud!
The music, the sets & Keatons performance make this movie an 80s classic⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely !
Thank you for taking the time to do this! I saw Beetlejuice the musical back in Jan. Such a fun show and great addition to the classic film.
That sounds like a fun night out. Thank you for taking the time to make an awesome comment!
Great video! We love seeing these old filming locations, especially from our favorite 80’s movies. What a bummer to see the condition of the hardware store though. 🙁 Your research and editing were excellent. Thanks for the tour! We’ve never been to Vermont, hope to visit some day.
Glad you enjoyed it! ..and I know what you mean about the current condition. It's too bad that it has been in that state for far too long... My wife and I recently started exploring Vermont and New Hampshire because distant travel plans have been impacted by the craziness. I couldn't recommend the area enough. I'm sure you will make it there some day. Thanks a lot, and I'll be checking out your channel too... I like the sound of that haha!
AWESOMENESS x 1000 Nick!!! Never realized that Beetlejuice was shot in Vermont! It's such a beautiful area!!! Great job as always my friend!!! It always makes us smile when we see a notification that you have a new video!!! Stay safe!! :)
That’s mighty kind of you guys!! Yes, in probably the smallest town I ever seen haha. Vermont really is beautiful. That’s great to hear my friends!! Likewise. Happy Halloween!!!
Fantastic.
I get so emotionally invested in certain films.
These videos are first class!
Likewise.. Thank you so much! Glad it had a positive affect on you!
It's a classic, my dad took me to see the movie when I was 7!😁
Awesome!
Now Subscribed! 🙏🤗❤️ Thank you so much for this, I’m giddy! 😂😊😎😘 When you were showing us the bridge/ road, a V.W sped by! 🙃🤗 such a beautiful river!
Yes! Awesome! Thank you!
amazing video. thank you!
This was great! Super cool that you found the bridge covering. Great find!
Thanks a lot Chris!
During our road to New England last month, we were going through Vermont and I deliberately started playing the Cd at a specific preplanned point. I timed it so that the Beetlejuice theme started playing just as we were entering East Corinth. My wife jokingly said the area reminded her of Beetlejuice because of the music playing. That's when I told her it was because we were IN the town where it (exteriors) was filmed. She had no idea I had added it as a stop to the trip :)
That is absolutely classic!! I’ve done similar things as well!
Another great video , thank you for shared.
Thanks a lot!
This is a very good episode, I didn’t know places like that still exist. Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks for sharing this!
My pleasure, Thank you!
Amazing video, thank you for posting it!
Thank you!
You did a phenomenal job lining up the shots with present day. I really enjoyed this as I thought about making the journey up there from Texas many times. Thanks
I really appreciate that, great to hear you enjoyed the video!
Watched this movie for the first time back in 1997. Still one of my favorites . Nice video .
Glad you enjoyed it.. This is def in the all-time fav category for me too.. Thanks a lot!
Hi Nick beautiful house and view breath taken Beetlejuice wow thanks for the video god bless take care
Brooklyn!! Thanks a lot..glad you enjoyed it.
Cool video! Visited there in the spring of 2019 with some friends. Very friendly people. We talked with a woman who showed us a photo album full of behind the scenes photo's with stories to go with them. She and another townie also warned us not to go onto the property where the house had been, saying the woman was sick and tired of tourists. Can't blame her really.
Thanks a lot!..Agreed, nice people...
I think over the last couple of years she's become bitter, and it must become annoying after a while.
Loved this! Thanks for sharing!! ..Made me a little emotional w nostalgia. ❤️
That's awesome!
I love watching these kinds of videos! So interesting and cool!
Glad you enjoyed it.. Thanks a lot!
Yet again another great location vid with a movie that I grew up watching 👍🏻 really appreciate the time and effort you put into your vids, always look forward to my Nick P notifications. 😁

Awesome video. I loved this movie as a kid. As an adult, I'm a movie location nerd...
Me too lol.. Thank you!
What a beautiful little town! Thanks so much for making these. I love "then and now" stuff, and the way you line up shots. You obviously do your homework for your videos. Thanks for feeding my inner nerd! You have a new sub : )
That’s awesome! Thanks a lot!
It’s 26 March 2022, I’m watching Beatlejuice. Now I’m here. Cheers!
Just out of curiosity🤔Does the town acknowledge or celebrate the fact that it was the filming location?
Yes, at select times of the year they do! I think they had a parade for the 30th anniversary.
Not as much as they should
Probably not my town square was used in the movie Day After with John Lithgow . Harrisonville Missouri.
Thanks for sharing the visit , Had thought the House was more real than it turns out :(
I had thought the same for a while.. My pleasure, and thank you.
Thanks so much for these videos! We just watched your Funny Farm filming locations as well! We plan on going up to Vermont to see these . Thanks so much! These are well done and are Awesome!!!
I greatly appreciate that... Hope you guys have a great trip!!
I love this movie! It appears after all of the work that has been done to Maitlands and the fire dept. over the years especially the removal of facades, you can see that what looks like a red round fire house bell next to the window is still there today! Thats neat! Cool video!
Very cool! Thanks a lot!
Beetlejuice😎 Beetlejuice😎 Beetlejuice!!!🎉
Thank you for making this video! I have such a great memories watching Beetlejuice as a kid.

I watch a lot of videos of people going to movie locations but I have to say you are one the best. I like how you show the actual movie shots in exact locations. Fine job, keep up the good work.
I really appreciate that, thanks a lot!

I only discovered your channel last night when I watched your Jaws video. I’m addicted, all great work. Feel like I’ve discovered a hidden gem. Thank you for sharing, I’ll be continuing down this rabbit hole.
That’s greatly appreciated Ethan! Welcome!
This was epic thanks man
Thank you
Awesome video! I love Beetlejuice it is one of my favorite Tim Burton films!
Thanks a lot!
I can't believe that red barn that was over the bridge still exists. I thought they would have torn it down after they finished filming like they do most movie props but glad it's still there.
Man I haven’t been up there in atleast 15 years. Thank you.
Great video as always Nick, it looks a beautiful place to live
Thanks a lot Richard! It's a beautiful, simple lifestyle, that's for sure.
@@NickP my kind of lifestyle that Nick👍
@@richardevans7035 Awesome! Thanks again
The library was originally built in 1902, burned in 1945. The current one was built and opened in 1949. In the movie they built a fake facade to look like the original 1902 building. Found the information on the Blake Memorial Library website. 😀
I was wondering why it was different. Thanks for that info!
Brilliant....so good to see this....and what a classic film....cheers
Glad to hear it...Thanks a lot!
Amazing job!
Glad you like it. Thanks a lot !
Wow! I enjoy watching the movie! One of my favorites. Great filming locations! I enjoyed this! I have done some filming locations myself.
Very cool..I will check it out... From one Nick to another ha.. Thanks a lot!
You pick awesome films to show. Avid viewing.
Thanks a lot!!
So much time and effort and balls (for being on that property and the owner yelling at you) has gone into making this video. Amazing and thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks for the awesome feedback, greatly appreciated!
Eerily Brilliant!
Wow, thanks for this investigation, plus revelation of location for one of the greatest movies that can relate to many people 33 Year's later, and many more to come. Pure classic.
That’s greatly appreciated Cesar!
@@NickP. Your Welcome, great work performed.
Great match shots. 😊👍👌
Glad you enjoyed it.. thanks a lot!!
I love the movie Beetlejuice! Can't wait for the sequel!
Great tour. After years of rattlings here and there about a possible sequel to the film I figured it was all fan noise, but seeing that the house is being rebuilt pretty much confirms it’s happening. Should be interesting!
I couldn’t agree more. Trying to get up there soon. Thanks a lot!
Omg this is fantastic. I love Beetlejuice so much and now I wanna plan a trip to VT from CA lol
Awesome
Damn man, you have an awesome channel that you obviously put a lot of hard work into. You really deserve many more subscribers.
Thanks a lot for that awesome compliment!
You earned a sub from me man, awesome video. Definitely a bucket list location for me.
Thanks a lot
Good ol Beetlejuice great timing I consider this a HALLOWEEN vibe type film as well great studies of the locations then and now
Thanks a lot Nathan! Happy Halloween !
It’s crazy how this town is just change so much. Very cool video.

Epic Filming locations video! Love this movie...wish they would make a sequel already though! Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice! 👻👻👻
Thanks a lot Carl! I know they’ve talked about it.
No sequel needed to ruin a great movie.
Really great job man
Thanks a lot!
