Filming location


Hi,
Just watched the original last night. It was GREAT!. Question?-Is the sequel based in the Los Angeles area, and include any scenes filmed around the city,like the original. I watched this movie only once, at a drive-in, when it was originally released.I must have been 7, but this movie left me with several horrifying memories.

While the original film was shot in Los Angeles, some parts of this sequel were shot in the San Francisco area, e.g. the Golden Gate Bridge and Marin Headlands, the latter of which is north of San Francisco and west of the bridge. I'm assuming the story takes place in that area as well, although the orphanage scenes were shot at Camarillo Ranch House in Camarillo, California, which is about 40 minutes west of Los Angeles and northwest of Malibu. The Count’s mansion is Casa Dorinda in Santa Barbara, which is about 50 minutes west of Camarillo and is now a retirement home.
