Where is studio 666 house location?

The movie Studio 666 was filmed at the same mansion in Encino, California where David Grohl and his Foo Fighters have recorded their latest album Medicine at Midnight. Grohl announced in a statement that they go through the same place to capture the classic magic that all of their favorite rock n roll movies had but with a twist with help of Tom Ortenberg and Open Road Films.

Director BJ McDonnell shared on twitter that during the pre-production, the film was titled as the Spooky Movie which was eventually changed in post production.

Filming of the movie was planned to finish by early 2020 but the pandemic shutdowns delayed the process while the filming was on the verge of getting done. Then, the production resumed in Los Angeles after several months. Six days of filming were planned to wrap up the film but due to Covid-19 restrictions, those 6 days turned into three weeks but the filming was completed safely. Some part of LA was also featured in another musical comedy Peacock’s Take Note.
