camera guys yeah but I'm an actor so we

thought it'd be fun for us to host a

show talking about filmmaking and scary

things that happen in horror filmmaking

good one good start so we thought what

better ways to start this show than to

talk about one of the scariest movies of

all time The Conjuring

have you seen it yeah

of course I have not seen it

I'm too afraid to see it

I'm gonna edit that part out okay it was

2012 and director James Wan was in the

early stages of creating what would

become a horror classic the story of a

family terrorized by demonic forces in

their new home was based on the real

life experiences of Ed and Lorraine

Warren two paranormal investigators who

had worked on some of the most famous

hauntings of the 20th century yeah you

know those guys they were in the the

movie Annabelle

that's the same universe it's a

Conjuring verse you know we did a little

bit of ghost hunting herself oh we did

back in spooktober yeah can we uh can we

roll that clip oh what the [ __ ] was that

oh god oh sh okay I hope I don't have

nightmares tonight

you might say we are the modern Ed and

Lorraine Warren I think I got a lot I

give a lot of props to people who can do

that honestly because like

nope yeah that is a hard nope my friend

Jordan peel nope

good movie same universe I think this is

going well yeah it was good okay great

as the production got underway the cast

and crew began to experience strange and

unsettling events on set

lights would flicker on and off without

explanation objects would move on their

own and cold spots would appear out of

nowhere

but it wasn't until they started filming

in the basement of The Farmhouse that

things really started to get creepy of

course it was in The Farmhouse of course

it's in The Farmhouse that's the

scariest place it probably could have

happened yeah

yeah if I had seen the movie I would

know exactly what part they're talking

about you think uh you think you think

animals see ghosts you always see like

videos of like dogs barking

at like the corner of the room and stuff

so they were haunted by a pony ghost

is that how the story goes I think so

I've never seen it the basement was

where the family in the film had first

encountered the malevolent spirit that

was Haunting their home it was also

where the real life Warrens had

performed an exorcism on the actual

family that had lived there as the crew

set up their cameras and Equipment they

began to feel a sense of unease that

they couldn't quite shake like let's say

You're really afraid of like ghosts and

you believed in it and you're just like

a production assistant it's like the day

of shooting and they're like by the way

where you're standing

should we should we clarify whether or

not we believe in ghosts one two three

yeah I think

actress Vera Farmiga who played Lorraine

Warren in the film described a feeling

of being watched and followed by an

unseen presence

she also reported hearing strange

Whispers and voices that seemed to come

from nowhere

one crew member claimed to have seen a

ghostly figure standing in the shadows

watching them work

as filming continued the incidents

became more frequent and more intense

doors would slam shut on their own and

crew members reported feeling hands on

their shoulders or hearing footsteps

behind them even when no one was there

some even claimed to have seen the

ghostly figure of a woman in a white

dress floating down the hallway

I don't know I feel like like you never

get like a clear video or

like picture or anything of like a ghost

but like this happened on a film set and

nobody captured that

what are they going to do pull the red

out you know hmm

look at that over there while we're

filming the same dishes dishes on the

side no pan it's a it's a film turn wow

pan

but perhaps the most disturbing incident

of all took place during the filming of

the climactic exorcism scene actor

Patrick Wilson who played Ed Warren

suddenly found himself overcome with a

sense of dread and unease he felt as

though something was trying to take over

his body and struggled to maintain his

composure as he delivered his lines

for me

they're paid me sex Gail

Penny what sex scale daily rate sag

scale Screen Actors Guild that's that's

not what I scale is that what you heard

if you're getting paid the big money if

the Haunted Farmhouse and the Demonic

spirit that had terrorized the family

Within
