- Is this house the real inspiration Alfred Hitchcock patterned the Psycho house after. Join me as we look at the clues; are the old house and adjacent rooms for rent the Bates mansion and Bates Motel?

Good story and what a beautiful old hotel. Sadly, none of the original Colonial Street homes look anything like they did. They've lost all their character.
Stan your always on point. Your viewing figures should be much higher if there was any justice in this world.
Thank you! It’s growing little by little 👍🏻
Hi Stanley (my Dad's name was Stanley). I worked at Universal Studios in the late 80's and early 90's. Part of what I did was to help with catered events, some of which took place at backlot locations. Long story short, I have a photo of myself knocking on the door of Room 1 at the Bates Motel.
Oh that’s is so cool you got to go right up to the motel. … and your dad has a cool name 😁
Back in the 80s when I was working at the Boardwalk I frequently walked past the McCray Hotel and it was very creepy. Years later I heard it inspired the Psycho house. You should cover Vertigo which did some filming in San Juan Bautista about an hour or so away. Great video! Brings back memories.
Thank you! It was much creepier before it got renovated into the Sunshine Villa. But I’m glad the building survives to this day. Yes Vertigo locations will happen. :)
always enjoy your videos Stanley! Keep up the good work!
Thank you! More videos, locations and other pop culture oddities are on the way. Thanks for the support!
Hitchcock is my favourite film director. North By Northwest is my favourite film - although most of it was filmed in a studio. Go eastward for some locations.
I will be doing some of those locations!
Hey Stanley! Just watched your video on Alfred Hitchcock, and I have to say, you did an incredible job! It was not only informative but also entertaining, diving into the history of such a fascinating figure. By the way, that winery you visited looked amazing! Was it worth the money? Keep up the fantastic work on your channel! 😊
Thank you! I was trying to add a bit of humor to keep it lively. Glad you enjoyed that. The winery Armitage Winery, was very good. Great views. They only grow Pino Noir grapes so, if your not a fan of Pino it won’t be your place; but if you enjoy Pino it is worth the money 👍🏻
Whoa, very cool. Another great video. Love Hitchcock. Makes me want to go see it for myself. I’m in the South Bay.
you do your homework " great job Stanley ! love your style !
Thanks! I get a little obsessed! 😂
This is hilarious! I'm from Santa Cruz, a Hitchcock fan and a marine biologist and you nailed it with great humor!
Glad you liked it and get my sense of humor lol. Thanks!
Ok, I mean no disrespect but, I kid you not just yesterday I was thinking I should watch more of that guy’s videos. But I had a brain fart and could not remember your channel name. And then, this video showed up today! Stanley Foss! I knew it all along (that’s my story and I’m sticking to it 😅)! Seriously though, awesome video as always! 👍🏼
With so many option on RUclips , I’m glad you thought about my channel and that the video showed up at the right time. Thanks!
Was just about to leave for work and saw your new vid. Alfred Hitchcock was a master story teller. Always like "The Birds." Another great watch, perfect ratio of information to humor. Top Notch work. Off to work for me....
Thank you! This was a tough one to put together. I was trying to keep it fun, without taking away from the information. Glad you enjoyed it - and I hope you made it to work on time!
Yes, made it to work on time "Thanks."
Again, Hitchcock was a master storyteller. Are you still going to re-due the Disneyland rides video????
mike@@StanleyFoss
Yes! Thanks for the reminder! Going to try and redo the thumbnail and title tomorrow..
@@StanleyFoss Hope It works. To bad about the In & Out closing.
Fascinating! I live near here by Love Apple Farms in Scott’s Valley. Can’t believe he lived so close. Well, I can as SV is so beautiful, with a wholesome charm lost on most places these days. Great video!
Thanks! Yeah it’s pretty awesome that he spent so much time here and was inspired :)
Very interesting! Another great video, thank you Stanley!
Thanks for the continued support!
Always great to see another excellent video from you kind sir! Thank you!
Thanks again!
Great video, I live about an hour away from Bodega Bay. We go out there about once a year, the wind is usually worse than the birds 😂
Good to know! I’ve never been. It’s on my list.
Great job Stanley. Hitchcock's movie Vertigo was filmed close by Monterey. Maybe a subject for a future video.
That will happen! 👍🏻 thanks
I stumbled up to the town where the birds were filmed when I was riding highway 1 and 101 on my goldwing honda, was really a cool surprise....Javi G.
I still need to get up to Bodega bay someday 👍🏻
Good job. Great job on the timing. I was able to get through the entire video in one sitting.
Thanks! It was fun! Yes I didn’t want to make it too long and drawn out 👍🏻
Thank you, Stanley! 🏚
stanley- getting into ur channel and having a great time...i love ur feeble attempts at humor -lol keep the vids coming!
Haha thanks!
Great video, Stanley! I had no idea there was a connection between Santa Cruz and the Psycho house. Hitchcock certainly had a fondness for the beautiful Northern California setting at least two of his classic films Vertigo and The Birds in and around the San Francisco area.
Yeah, he also filmed Shadow of a Doubt in Santa Rosa. All of those I want to make a video on I the future. Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video!
thank you
Interesting video. I would never have linked Harvey’s house and Desperate Housewives! Oh PSYCHO was a scary movie
Yes it was a fun rabbit hole of research to go through 👍🏻 thanks!
Nice job
Thanks!
It has been well documented that Hitchcock took inspiration from a painting by Edward Hooper called House By The Railroad. Maybe the hotel gave him an idea to place the house on a hill. They did not fully use existing sets off the backlot for the house. The tower and the right side where taken from the harvey house according to the blueprints from 1959. They matched the left side using stock that matched the harvey house and the porch roof and sides were all constructed for the production which until Invitation To A Gunfight they added another side so it could be used and painted it in a tan color and it sat on Laramie St next to Singapore lake till 1980 when PSYCHO II went into production and they knew it had to be moved since it was impossible to shoot the film when Universal had the house as part of the backlot tour, move to a isolated area of the backlot next to Falls Lake. Which was the swamp location used in 1960.
Hi there, thanks for the comment. Yes Hitchcock was a hopper fan, and I’m sure that painting added to the look of the mansion. I read somewhere that the door came from the Crocker mansion in San Francisco, but I can’t find any old picture of the Crocker house to compare. The only one I found has a different door?
Great video
I really enjoyed this video. Now I want to go taste wine at that location.
Armitage winery. They only grow Pino Noir, so if you like Pino you will love it 👍🏻
@@StanleyFoss Actually, it's one of my favorites.
Love it ❤
I Lived in the McCray Hotel 78 & 79 on the 2nd floor & there was a Gazebo attached to my room which I could walk onto from a Door in my room possibly for a band to play for guests in garden party's ?? the Garden & Grounds were below my room . And ..... Hold onto your Hat there were 4 or 5 flat roofed like motel rooms right on the Grounds which makes it even more believable ,, not the rooms across the street . I think I have pictures that show them partially , send your Email & I'll try & get them to you . I also believe there was a painting of a matching house in the mid west maybe by Andrew Wyeth ,, Very Good Presentation Which I can share with my Friends ,, I've been telling them for years that I lived in the Psycho Hotel ..... & they Say that sounds about Right !!
Very cool! If you find that picture my email is stanleyfoss@gmail.com
I’m intrigued!
Stanley! Has anyone told you that you bear a striking resemblance to Sasha the Psychic Medium from Psychonauts?
I had to look that up; ok, I see it. Same body shape, face shape, hair lol
You took a stab at Psycho .
😁 🔪
