Goosebumps Filming Locations… and Gilmore Girls in CANADA?
In this Randomland Adventure we head north to Ontario, Canada in search of some incredible filming history! First up, fans of Goosebumps will recognize the real store where Carly Beth discovered the Haunted Mask — and the eerie cemetery where it was buried. These filming spots bring the spooky world of R.L. Stine’s classic straight into real life.
But that’s not all — we also visit Stars Hollow before it ever existed in California. In Unionville, Ontario, the pilot episode of Gilmore Girls was filmed, including the original Luke’s Diner! Long before it became a backlot set, this Canadian town stood in for the world’s most famous coffee shop.
And to finish it all off, a nostalgic stop at Toys “R” Us in Canada. While the chain has disappeared from the U.S., it’s still alive and thriving here — the aisles of toys and memories still waiting to be explored.
