Jack Frost (1997)

 

                                                            IMDB

 

I previously covered this movie on the blog here, but decided to come back and share the locations I missed the first time around.  The locations I previously shared from the movie are also featured in the movie Grotesque (1988) starring Linda Blair and Tab Hunter.  Pretty much all the locations in Jack Frost are a stones throw from each other.  

All of this information was in the previous post, but to briefly recap:

One of the main locations from Jack Frost is the Fawn Lodge.  This serves as a Town Hall in the movie, where the Snowman Building Contest is held and the finale takes place.  

Location: 39198 N Shore Dr, Fawnskin, CA

Directly across the street is the Fawnskin Market, featured in both Jack Frost (1997) and Grotesque (1988).

Location: 39187 N Shore Dr, Fawnskin, CA

Within sight of these, just around the slight curve in the road, is the building that was used as a police station in both Jack Frost (1997) and Grotesque (1988).  It is now a Post Office.  

Location: 39132 N Shore Dr, Fawnskin, CA

Now on to the new locations:

Old Man Harper's House - 39147 Rim Of The World Dr
 
Old Man Harper's House - 39147 Rim Of The World Dr

Within sight of the Fawn Lodge is Old Man Harper's House, featured briefly near the beginning of the movie.

Sheriff Tiler's House - 39275 Mohawk Dr

Sheriff Tiler's house is located right nearby on Mohawk Dr.  This is the house where the infamous snowman-in-the-bathtub kill takes place, featuring a pre-American Pie (1999) Shannon Elizabeth.  While this is happening, there's a brief exterior shot of her hand flailing in the upstairs window, as a passing neighbor sees it and waves back (see photo above).

Across The Street - Mohawk Dr & Chickasaw Rd

Right next door to Sheriff Tiler's house is the Metzner house.  This is the home of Shannon Elizabeth's character, where her grieving parents (her brother Billy was decapitated in a sledding accident) are offed by the killer snowman.  Based on Google Maps, the giant tree stump is even still there!  This house is located on the corner of Mohawk Dr and Chickasaw Rd.  Behind Jack Frost, you can see the house just across Chickasaw Rd.

Goosebumps: Let's Get Invisible (1996)

 

IMDB

Fans have found a few of the locations from the '90s Goosebumps (1995) TV series over the years, but there's still really not a lot of information out there about the filming locations.  I hadn't seen anyone share this one yet, so I figured I'd make a quick post.  

 

Let's Get Invisible House - 128 Park Rd

Let's Get Invisible House - 128 Park Rd

Let's Get Invisible House - 128 Park Rd

The house from the episode Let's Get Invisible (1996) turned out to be an extremely easy find, thanks to the 128 right above the door.  The house was built in 1894, but unfortunately it's difficult to get much information on the property without opening an account with Zolo.  I'm confident the attic with the mirror was a set, but I'm unsure if the interiors were used for the kitchen.  The entire episode is set at this house, so as far as exteriors go, this is the only location to find.  The same house exterior is also featured as the primary location in the episode An Old Story (1997) the following season.
