Guillermo del Toro’s Haunting Encounter: A Spooky Stay While Filming Frankenstein
Renowned filmmaker Guillermo del Toro, known for his dark and fantastical worlds, has recently shared a chilling tale from his time filming the upcoming Netflix adaptation of Frankenstein. While staying in an 1800s hotel in Aberdeen, Scotland, del Toro has encountered a series of unexplained occurrences in what he describes as the “most haunted room” of the establishment.
A Spooky Encounter
del Toro’s journey began when he decided to stay in the hotel’s notorious haunted room. Initially, he was excited about the prospect of experiencing something supernatural, having stayed in “haunted rooms” before without incident. However, his curiosity soon turned to unease.
A Producer’s Frightful Experience
Before del Toro moved into the room, one of his producers had already vacated it due to a series of “odd electrical and physical occurrences.” This was enough to deter most people, but del Toro, known for his fearless approach to storytelling, was intrigued.
Del Toro’s Initial Observations
Despite the producer’s warning, del Toro decided to give the room a try. He described the atmosphere as “oppressive” and sensed a “something” in the room with him. Although he hasn’t experienced any overt paranormal activity, the feeling of being watched or monitored has been unsettling.
A Growing Sense of Unease
As del Toro continued his stay, the eerie occurrences persisted. He mentioned feeling “more than vibes” in the room, describing it as a place of “angry and territorial” energy. The director even shared a photo of a strange anomaly he saw in the mirror, adding to the growing sense of unease.
Exploring the Paranormal
In an attempt to understand the phenomena, del Toro has been trying to capture electronic voice phenomena (EVP) on his phone. He hopes that by recording the sounds and analyzing them, he might be able to uncover the source of the disturbances.
A Haunted Hotel Room and a Masterful Film
While del Toro’s encounter with the haunted hotel room has been a captivating story, it’s important to remember that he is currently in Scotland to film Frankenstein. The Netflix adaptation promises to be a visually stunning and thought-provoking exploration of Mary Shelley’s classic novel.
