I have worked many night shoots in Vancouver at Riverview Hospital that is an old Mental Asylum that is now used as a filming location. It has been used on every major show from Supernatural to X-Files and was an actual storyline in Grave Encounters 2 . While I never personally had an experience several crew have told me differently in fact boasting about having photo evidence. I did find it creepy always preparing myself when I looked up at windows.
Christina Ricci has worked on a lot of eerie sets throughout her career, but one filming location continues to give her chills: Riverview. The actress, who stars as Misty Quigley in Yellowjackets, recently revealed on The Kelly Clarkson Show that she believes the location might be haunted.
Ricci first filmed at the site in 2001 for Prozac Nation and returned years later for Yellowjackets. During her earlier experience, she recalled a particularly unsettling moment when she ventured into a hospital-like set alone during a lunch break. After retrieving an item she had left behind, she heard what sounded like footsteps. “I saw just black shoes coming down [the stairs],” she explained. Not knowing whether it was her imagination or something supernatural, she quickly left the area.
Her eerie experiences have stuck with her, and now, while filming Yellowjackets, she takes no chances. “When I’m by myself in a hallway or something, I will just be like, ‘Don’t mess with me. I know you’re here. You leave me alone. I am here for work,’” she shared.
Though Ricci admits she’s never had direct proof of ghosts, she remains open to the possibility—especially after filming in such a notoriously creepy location. Whether it’s the power of suggestion or real supernatural activity, one thing is clear: she’s not about to test the spirits.
