In the film, this Victorian baronial mansion stands in for the lavish home of Henrich Harlander (Christoph Waltz), Frankenstein\u2019s benefactor. The memorable scene of Lady Elizabeth (Mia Goth) playing piano dripping in diamonds was shot in Hospitalfield\u2019s drawing room \u2013 which, remarkably, needed almost no set dressing because the room\u2019s walls are already covered in gorgeous 19th-century art. Hospitalfield has a long history (built in 1260 and later an art school and artists\u2019 residence) and is said to exude a haunted energy in person.

These historic mansions provided lavish interiors (and some exteriors) for scenes set in the Frankenstein family home and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>First is <strong data-start=\"8646\" data-end=\"8664\">Burghley House<\/strong> in Lincolnshire, a 16th-century prodigy house famed for its Elizabethan architecture and expansive parkland. <em data-start=\"8774\" data-end=\"8788\">Frankenstein<\/em> used several rooms in Burghley House \u2013 for instance, <strong data-start=\"8842\" data-end=\"8862\">Victor\u2019s bedroom<\/strong> in the movie is actually the Bow Room at Burghley, complete with 17th-century murals on the ceiling. The production also filmed in Burghley\u2019s <strong data-start=\"9044\" data-end=\"9058\">Great Hall<\/strong>, a grand space dating to the 1500s, which stood in for Henrich Harlander\u2019s dining room. Even a brief corridor scene showcasing ornate decor used Burghley\u2019s richly painted \u201cHeaven Room\u201d as a backdrop.\u00a0When you visit Burghley House today, you can tour these opulent rooms and see the exact spots featured on screen \u2013 the artistry of the ceilings and woodwork is even more impressive in person. The estate\u2019s gardens are lovely for a stroll, and there\u2019s a garden cafe to recharge. If you\u2019re hostel-hopping, the nearest big town is <strong data-start=\"9703\" data-end=\"9719\">Peterborough<\/strong> (about 20 minutes away) which has budget accommodations and transport links. Burghley is open to visitors generally from spring through autumn, so plan accordingly.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1271547\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1271547\" style=\"width: 1720px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1271547\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-wilton-house.webp\" alt=\"frankenstein 2025 filming locations, wilton house\" width=\"1720\" height=\"1147\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-wilton-house.webp 1720w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-wilton-house-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-wilton-house-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-wilton-house-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-wilton-house-1536x1024.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1720px) 100vw, 1720px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1271547\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photograph: Shutterstock | The Palladian Bridge at Wilton House<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Further south, in <strong data-start=\"9943\" data-end=\"9956\">Wiltshire<\/strong>, lies <strong data-start=\"9963\" data-end=\"9979\">Wilton House<\/strong>, another <em data-start=\"9989\" data-end=\"10003\">Frankenstein<\/em> filming location and a period drama superstar. Wilton House (the seat of the Earl of Pembroke) is known for its stunning interiors \u2013 notably the <strong data-start=\"10149\" data-end=\"10169\">Double Cube Room<\/strong>, a gilded 17th-century hall lined with portraits. In <em data-start=\"10223\" data-end=\"10237\">Frankenstein<\/em>, Wilton\u2019s ornate rooms stood in for parts of the Frankenstein estate as well as a <strong data-start=\"10320\" data-end=\"10338\">ballroom scene<\/strong> and even a <strong data-start=\"10350\" data-end=\"10384\">funeral sequence in the garden<\/strong>. The estate\u2019s Palladian Bridge and grounds appear briefly during a melancholy funeral scene in the film. Wilton House\u2019s grand staircase also caught Del Toro\u2019s eye, featuring prominently as a visual in the family villa.\u00a0Visitors to Wilton can tour certain rooms and the beautiful gardens, typically in summer months. It\u2019s located just outside <strong data-start=\"10883\" data-end=\"10896\">Salisbury<\/strong> \u2013 making Salisbury a convenient place to stay (there\u2019s a hostel in Salisbury for budget travelers). Seeing Wilton House\u2019s lavish interior, you\u2019ll understand why it\u2019s a go-to film location (it has appeared in <em data-start=\"11105\" data-end=\"11129\">The Crown, Bridgerton,<\/em> and many more). For <em data-start=\"11189\" data-end=\"11203\">Frankenstein<\/em>, its real Baroque opulence helped ground the emotional family scenes in authenticity.<\/p>\n<p>Exploring these English manors offers a delightful change of pace from the dark streets of Frankenstein\u2019s Edinburgh. It\u2019s a chance to indulge your inner history buff and see how real aristocratic homes can become movie magic. Be sure to check each house\u2019s visiting hours \u2013 and perhaps pack a nice outfit, because you\u2019ll feel positively fancy wandering these halls! And if you fancy a night in London either before or after, it\u2019s an easy train ride away \u2013 with plenty of hostels to choose from as your base in the capital.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"11815\" data-end=\"11866\">Canada \u2013 Toronto\u2019s Studios and Alpine Wilderness<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1271550\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1271550\" style=\"width: 1995px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1271550\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-toronto-1.webp\" alt=\"frankenstein 2025 filming locations, toronto\" width=\"1995\" height=\"1079\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-toronto-1.webp 1995w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-toronto-1-300x162.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-toronto-1-1024x554.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-toronto-1-768x415.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-toronto-1-1536x831.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1995px) 100vw, 1995px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1271550\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photograph: Courtesy of Netflix<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"cta_buttons\"\n\t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/hostels\/north-america\/canada\/toronto\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"button orange\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttarget=\"_blank\"\n\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"text-color: #FFF; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none;\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span>Book Hostels In Toronto<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"11868\" data-end=\"13221\">Guillermo del Toro is a longtime Toronto filmmaker, so it\u2019s no surprise that <strong data-start=\"11945\" data-end=\"11964\">Toronto, Canada<\/strong> was a major production hub for <em data-start=\"11996\" data-end=\"12010\">Frankenstein<\/em>. In fact, <strong data-start=\"12021\" data-end=\"12080\">principal photography began in Toronto in February 2024<\/strong>, where crews constructed elaborate sets to bring Frankenstein\u2019s world to life. The film\u2019s opening Arctic scenes \u2013 with the Danish ship <em data-start=\"12255\" data-end=\"12265\">Horisont<\/em> trapped in ice \u2013 were shot on a massive outdoor set at Toronto\u2019s port. The production designer <strong data-start=\"12361\" data-end=\"12395\">built the entire 130-foot ship<\/strong> on a backlot, mounted on a giant gimbal so it could rock as if at sea. Surrounding the ship, they created a fake ice field out of plexiglass, foam, wax, and real snow to mimic the frozen Arctic. (Imagine the crew working in Toronto while the CN Tower peeked over the horizon \u2013 a modern city landmark carefully kept off-camera!) For the dog-sled chase, the team ventured to a real frozen lake in Ontario \u2013 <strong data-start=\"12957\" data-end=\"12975\">Lake Nipissing<\/strong> near North Bay \u2013 to film on actual ice under winter skies. If you visit North Bay in winter, you can appreciate the stark beauty of a frozen lake (just heed local safety advice before walking on any ice!).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1271551\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1271551\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1271551\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-laborathory.webp\" alt=\"frankenstein 2025 filming locations, laborathory\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-laborathory.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-laborathory-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-laborathory-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frankenstein-2025-filming-locations-laborathory-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1271551\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Foto: Cortes\u00eda<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p data-start=\"11868\" data-end=\"13221\">Toronto itself hosted many interior scenes on soundstages. Pinewood Toronto Studios was the base for constructing Victor\u2019s labyrinthine laboratory and the interior of the towering windmill-like structure where the Creature is born. (They actually built the tower\u2019s base outdoors at a fairground outside Toronto \u2013 nearly 55 meters high!). While you can\u2019t tour those closed sets, movie buffs in Toronto might drive by the <strong data-start=\"13721\" data-end=\"13751\">Cinespace\/Pinewood studios<\/strong> or the Markham fairground just to say you were \u201cnear Frankenstein\u2019s tower.\u201d More interesting for travelers, perhaps, is the University of Toronto campus: some reports indicate the production filmed brief scenes around U of T, taking advantage of its historic architecture as stand-ins for European locales. Strolling through U of T\u2019s Gothic-style quads (like Knox College or University College) can indeed feel like walking through a period film set.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"11868\" data-end=\"13221\"><p>\n\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"cta_buttons\"\n\t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/hostels\/north-america\/canada\/ontario\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"button orange\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttarget=\"_blank\"\n\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"text-color: #FFF; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none;\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span>Book Hostels In Ontario<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"11868\" data-end=\"13221\">Beyond the city, <em data-start=\"14299\" data-end=\"14313\">Frankenstein<\/em> also needed untamed nature to represent the Creature\u2019s journey. The <strong data-start=\"14382\" data-end=\"14419\">forest where the Creature awakens<\/strong> was shot at <strong data-start=\"14432\" data-end=\"14462\">Rockwood Conservation Area<\/strong> in Ontario \u2013 a park known for its dense woods, caves, and picturesque river. If you love hiking, Rockwood is a fantastic day trip from Toronto (about an hour\u2019s drive). You can wander the very woods that on screen became the Creature\u2019s \u201cEastern European\u201d wilderness. The production even built a rustic <strong data-start=\"14842\" data-end=\"14856\">mill house<\/strong> on a farm outside Toronto (near Kleinburg) for scenes of the Creature hiding out in the woods. While that set was temporary, you can visit the area \u2013 Kleinburg is home to the McMichael Canadian Art Collection and lovely trails along the Humber River, making for a pleasant excursion.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1271554\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1271554\" style=\"width: 2559px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1271554\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/brady-stoeltzing-3_qgQf_1R44-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2559\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/brady-stoeltzing-3_qgQf_1R44-unsplash-scaled.jpg 2559w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/brady-stoeltzing-3_qgQf_1R44-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/brady-stoeltzing-3_qgQf_1R44-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/brady-stoeltzing-3_qgQf_1R44-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/brady-stoeltzing-3_qgQf_1R44-unsplash-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/brady-stoeltzing-3_qgQf_1R44-unsplash-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2559px) 100vw, 2559px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1271554\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@bstoeltz?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" class=\"post links\">Brady Stoeltzing<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/green-trees-near-mountain-under-white-clouds-during-daytime-3_qgQf_1R44?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" class=\"post links\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p data-start=\"11868\" data-end=\"13221\">Finally, <em data-start=\"15191\" data-end=\"15205\">Frankenstein<\/em> gives us a taste of the <strong data-start=\"15230\" data-end=\"15250\">Canadian Rockies<\/strong>.
