Where was The Fall of the House of Usher filmed?
The new Mike Flanagan series features some incredible high-end houses and offices.
Mike Flanagan's latest horror series The Fall of the House of Usher is now available to stream in full on Netflix, and it sees a number of his regular collaborators returning for a wild new story, inspired by the works of Edgar Allan Poe.
The action of Poe's stories has been transplanted to modern day, with the narrative following Roderick Usher, the billionaire CEO of a pharmaceutical company and the patriarch of the Usher family, who soon start mysteriously dying one by one.
Given the nature of the series, being set in wealthy high society, the eight episodes feature a number of grand houses, flats, offices and other locations. But where is the show set and where was it filmed?
Read on for everything you need to know about the locations used for The Fall of the House of Usher.
Where is The Fall of the House of Usher set?
It's not completely confirmed where The Fall of the House of Usher is set, but we know that it is certainly in the US. Large parts of the series appear as though they are set in New York City, with police badges seeming to suggest as much.
However, where Roderick and Madeline's childhood home is based is less certain. It could be further out in New York state, or in a different state altogether.
Where was The Fall of the House of Usher filmed?
While The Fall of the House of Usher is set in the US, it was actually filmed, like many other Mike Flanagan projects, in Canada.
Filming started on 31st January 2022, and took place both in Vancouver and also at Bridge Studios.
The Canadian studios have previously been used for filming series including Flanagan's Midnight Mass, Apple TV+ film Swan Song and Paramount+ series Yellowjackets.

Filming wrapped on 9th July 2022, with Flanagan posting on Twitter, which has recently been rebranded as X: "A few minutes ago we wrapped production on THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER, closing a huge chapter of my life.
"I've worked in Vancouver almost nonstop since BLY MANOR in 2019. We made 4 series in 3 years, only taking a short break for the COVID lockdown in early 2020."
Of filming in Vancouver, Arthur Pym star Mark Hamill said: "I've been coming to Hollywood North, which is how we refer to Vancouver in Los Angeles, I don't know since the eighties? I love this city. The people are so great. You immediately feel like you're at home."
The Fall of the House of Usher will stream on Netflix from Thursday 12th October 2023. Sign up for Netflix from £4.99 a month. Netflix is also available on Sky Glass and Virgin Media Stream.
