Where Did Beetlejuice Get Filmed in Vermont? A Trip Down Memory Lane
You know that iconic scene in Beetlejuice where the Maitlands' house gets swallowed by the sand, leaving only the mailbox standing? Or the creepy graveyard scene with those kooky, quirky, and downright dead characters? You might be surprised to learn that a lot of those scenes were actually filmed right here in Vermont.
So, where in Vermont was Beetlejuice filmed?
The answer is a place called East Corinth. This little town in Vermont is where the famous graveyard scene was shot. If you're a fan of the movie, you'll definitely want to check out the Corinth Cemetery, which was transformed into the creepy graveyard we see in the movie.
There were a few other scenes filmed in Vermont, including the famous scene with the Maitlands' mailbox. The house itself wasn't actually in Vermont, but the mailbox was actually filmed in Stowe, Vermont.
What's it like to visit these locations?
Well, let me tell you, it's a total blast from the past. Imagine standing in the same spot where Lydia Deetz danced with Beetlejuice, or where the Maitlands fought those freaky sandworms. It's truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Of course, the locations aren't exactly how they look in the movie. The Corinth Cemetery isn't filled with spooky characters, and the mailbox in Stowe doesn't just magically disappear. But it's still pretty awesome to see these locations and imagine the movie coming to life.
Tips for visiting the locations:
- Corinth Cemetery: The cemetery is open to the public, but it's important to be respectful of the people buried there. Don't touch the headstones or disturb anything.
- Stowe, Vermont: There are a lot of great places to eat and shop in Stowe, so make a day of it. You can even visit the Stowe Historical Society, which has a lot of information about the town's history.
So, if you're a fan of Beetlejuice and you're looking for a unique travel experience, Vermont is the place to be. You might even get a glimpse of Beetlejuice himself!
