  • Many people know that the movie 'Edward Scissorhands' was largely filmed at locations in Lutz and Lakeland, Florida. But the castle itself was built in Dade City. Here's Deanna Lawrence's report from April 24, 1990 on what residents thought of their new neighbors.

    Wish they would’ve left it up. It was such a beautiful, magnificent piece of art.

      Oh god, me too. I have re-occuring dreams that the castle still exists and on the inside it's a Scissorhands themed gift shop. What potential for tourists! Such a waste of beautiful architecture as well.

      I was a student at USF in Tampa from 88-92. I went to visit my friend in Dade City (where the castle was) in 91 and we rode to the site on 4-wheelers and it was already torn down. They didn't leave it up for long, probably right after filming it came down.

      Edward was a great film but honestly in the 80's & 90's I used to get board alot, these days everything, literally everything is a push of a button away, music, games, movies, shopping, food,etc I hardly get bored these days but those early days are nice too look back on here and there but your choices for entertainment were limited.

    There’s a lot of stuff on the town but so little on the actual castle. Thank you for this! Anyone have pics or videos of the interior castle set? I know it was in a sound stage but can’t find anything.

    Platt Rd and Blanton Rd.. near College for those needing location

    • @Faq-ubeach
      @Faq-ubeach 4 года назад +1

      Yeah it's somewhere along Platt road. Can't tell exactly, but it looks like they're looking toward the northwest from blanton, so it had to have been on the north side of the Platt road.
      Wish we could get some coordinates.

      Probably safety reasons. You'd have to keep it maintained or guarded the entire time in case of trespassers. If someone gets hurt inside I'm sure it's a big liability.

    Sad that Burton got lazy and started using CGI instead of fully building sets by the time Willy Wonka was made.
