As everyone else started prepping, I walked around and made myself familiar with what will be my new home for the next 8 months. Well not literally. I’m staying in a hotel down the street but I’ll be here for longer hours so it’s basically my home. The place is huge!! I know why they chose it because we can film every scene besides the car on fire scene. I’m nervous for the night scenes though. I’ve heard stories about strange noises and items going missing. But I’m not gonna let a little ghost stop me from creating a masterpiece!
