Altered States: Movie Homes and Their Actual Locations-- Part 3

Just in time for Halloween.

In 1969's "Rosemary's Baby" was in an apartment building at West 72nd Street in New York City. But, the building, called the Dakota, is better known for the death of Beatle John Lennon.

The 1978 film "Halloween" was set in the fictional Midwest town of Haddonfield. But, Michael was actually stalking a house in North Orange Grove Avenue in Los Angeles.

Exterior house shots from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" were taken at a home on Cota Avenue in Torrance, California. Buffy's high school, Sunnydale, is just down the street at Torrance High School.

The witch's house in 1957's "The Undead" was actually built in the 1920s in a movie studio, but has since been moved to a lot on Walden Drive in Beverly Hills.

"House on Haunted Hill" (1959) was the 1924 Frank Lloyd Wright Ennis House on a hill in the Los Feliz neighborhood of LA.

The party never ends at the mansion on Bull Street in Savannah, Georgia, in "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil."

You can find a lot more information in the article.
